What’s included in the cost of Disney’s Star Wars Hotel?

The cost also includes valet parking and entry to Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge (and the rest of Hollywood Studios) for your excursion to Batuu.

Note: Alcohol and specialty drinks are not included but are available for purchase.

When will discounts become available for Disney’s Star Wars: Galactic Starcruiser hotel?

Disney’s Star Wars Galactic Starcruiser hotel is relatively new and still receiving a lot of media attention.  But, Disney has cut down a bit on the number of departures per week in an apparent attempt to operate at a higher occupancy level. There are only 100 rooms, but there is often plenty of availability according to Disney’s website.

Discounts were very rare immediately after the grand opening, but Disney is clearly becoming more open to the idea based on some affinity group offers which have been released lately.  Many people find the experience cost-restrictive so a discounted package would certainly help Disney fill up those vacant rooms.
