Walt Disney World Sets 2022 Opening Date for New Star Wars Hotel

Walt Disney World Resort announced on Tuesday Star Wars: Galactic Starcruiser will debut in 2022 at Disney’s Hollywood Studios.

This isn’t an ordinary hotel, however. Guests will become the heroes of their own stories during a two-day, two-night adventure where they are immersed in the Star Wars universe. Disney has dubbed it a new kind of “storyliving.”

Throughout the journey, guests’ choices will determine their personal adventures by interacting with characters, crew, and other passengers they meet as they become part of the action and the broader Star Wars saga. Decisions guests make will determine how their individual stories unfold.

Guests arrive at the Galactic Starcruiser terminal where they will enter a Launch Pod. Through the windows above, they’ll see themselves leave their world behind as they approach the Halcyon Starcruiser. When the Launch Pod docks with the Starcruiser and the airlock opens, guests will step into the ship’s main deck Atrium.

Every window in the Halcyon Starcruiser – including those in each cabin – has a view of the galaxy beyond, with ever-changing vistas as the ship progresses from destination to destination. The themed rooms also feature virtual windows providing a look out into space.

Onboard activities include learning the lightsaber and facing off against a training remote and visiting the Starcruiser’s Bridge to learn about its systems and how to operate them, including navigation and defense.

The Crown of Corellia Dining Room will offer breakfast and lunch daily to passengers before transitioning each evening into a lavish multi-course menu. One night’s dinner will feature a live performance from a galactic superstar.

The journey also includes an excursion to Batuu, where guests can explore the winding pathways of Black Spire Outpost and seek out a hidden Resistance base.
