New Star Wars resort....how much?

[megs1313]

Anyone care to take a guess on how much rack rate will be? Is it going to be MORE than the Poly or GF? About the same as BC/YC? Most expensive on property? WDYT?

I'm guessing it's going to be on par with GF.

 

[Jadyreen1282]

Depends. How much does one Galactic credit equal a US dollar.

 

[DisDreaming4116]

My guess is rack rate will be $1099/night.

I'm out then....

I believe I saw something like $1000, but the stays are limited to 2 nights. I'm out anyway, because they won't have any rooms for a family of 5. It's a bummer because we are a SW loving family.

The hotel is supposed to be "fully immersive". Sorta like a cruise ship, or Hotel California. Once you check in, you do not leave until check out day 2 days later. All meals, and adventures will keep you inside the hotel. Maybe you get to visit Galaxy's Edge via a secret tunnel or something like that? Maybe.

If the experience is something like this... easily it will be more expensive than any room at the Poly or GF as there will be limited rooms. Probably the "smallest" WDW resort hotel room wise.

I guess the price will be closer to a Bungalow, but the kicker here is you must stay 2 nights. And who is to say the rate is room only. What if it is similar to maybe a cruise where you pay per person? My guess, I'll say $2,800 for a family of 4 for 2 nights.

I don't remember if this was just speculation or a rumor, but I recall reading about pricing somewhere. If what read is at all correct it seems pricing may be per person, not per night. It was somewhere in the $1000 range per person, for a fully interactive, 2 night stay. It's been so long since I read this that I don't recall the details, or even where I read it. I also thought that the price included entrance into the new Star Wars land for guest to complete "missions" as part of the interactive experience.

Wow ! I guess only the rich can stay here if this is true...

Too much....but since we're wildly speculating...

Isn't the Star Wars VR thing at Disney Springs something like $30 per person for a 30 minute experience? And this hotel is supposed to be even MORE immersive - costumes, transportation, windows that look out into hyperspace? Which would surely all cost more to put together than just putting people into a VR headset. Maybe food would be included, as it would break immersion to post prices in USD for your blue milk in the morning.

So for 24 hours in a fully immersive resort at the same rate as The Void, that would be 60 minutes * 24 hours * $1/min. = $1440 per person, per night. Plus taxes D: Hope park admission to GE would be included!

Since most people gonna pay no matter what for this crazy experience, I bet the start price is going to be 999+ lol

 

[sbd78]

The current newest resort, AoA, is by far the most expensive value. I bet the Star Wars resort will be no different in regards to deluxe prices.

 

[SgtTibbs]

I could see them moving to cruise line pricing. Cost is per/person with an extra charge for singles.

 

[megs1313]

Cruise line pricing makes sense.

I wonder what the demand will be like over the long term. I have no desire to visit it, so I'm not the target market. It blows my mind that people are going to be lining up for this.
