How to Book the Disney Star Wars Hotel

PERMANENTLY CLOSED

Star Wars: Galactic Starcruiser is permanently closed, with its final voyage taking place September 28-30, 2023.

From its opening in 2022 to its all-too-soon closure in late 2023, Galactic Starcruiser gave its passengers the once-in-a-lifetime experience of living out their Star Wars dreams in an immersive two-day adventure.

Though the Halcyon is no longer accepting passengers, we’re leaving this article published as a tribute to all of the amazing Imagineers, Cast Members, travel professionals, and Guests who made time spent onboard Galactic Starcruiser a true adventure.

There’s a lot of excitement around Disney’s new Star Wars hotel. Since well before the opening date of March 1, 2022, guests have been asking how to book reservations for the Star Wars Galactic Starcruiser experience. Below we tell you more about Disney’s live-action, role-playing entertainment experience, what it costs to stay here, and how to book your 2-night immersive adventure on this galaxy far, far away.

When Can Guests Book Reservations for Disney’s Star Wars Hotel?

Star Wars: Galactic Starcruiser made its first voyage at Disney World in March 2022.

While some Galactic Starcruiser guests receive priority bookings (Disney Vacation Club members, Disney Passholders, and Disney Visa Cardholders), general bookings for the newest round of availability — stays occurring through December 2023 — opened to public guests on March 7, 2023.

This is sure to be a Star Wars resort experience unlike anything ever seen before and guests from around the globe will be eager to get their reservations as soon as they are eligible to purchase tickets.

Ways to Book Disney’s Star Wars Hotel

The two main ways to book Disney’s Star Wars resort:

1. Book the resort stay yourself, either through Disney’s website or some other booking website.
2. Plan and book your Disney Star Wars vacation with the assistance of an Authorized Disney Vacation Planner.

The first option is fine if you feel confident enough to book your adventure on your own. You can do your own research and planning, and book all of your own reservations at Disney’s resorts.

We recommend the second option for most guests at Disney’s parks.

The best way to book Disney’s Star Wars hotel is by working with someone who specializes in Disney destinations and parks. We recommend The Vacationeer.

Here’s why we think this is the best way to book your Walt Disney World resort and park visit.

Why Use an Authorized Disney Vacation Planner to Book your Trip

Authorized Disney Vacation Planners (like those at The Vacationeer) are experts on all things Walt Disney World and graduates of the College of Disney Knowledge program. Therefore,  you can be assured that your personal travel agent is well-trained – and hyper-focused – on Disney destinations and parks. They’ll be able to answer all your questions about Disney’s entertainment and give well-informed recommendations, like how to get the most out of your tickets and park visit. Most Authorized Disney Vacation Planners visit Disney World more than once per year, so they have personal experience and stay up-to-date on the rides, tickets, restaurants, entertainment options, and hotels.

Your Disney travel agent can book all aspects of your Disney experience, including your dining reservations, theme park tickets, Disney Genie+ passes, and your Star Wars hotel stay. This can be time-consuming and frustrating so it’s a huge plus if a Walt Disney expert handles everything for you.

They will also make sure you get the lowest possible rates for your tickets and tell you if there are any discounts on Disney’s Galactic Starcruiser Hotel. If a lower rate for your adventure becomes available AFTER you’ve already booked your trip, your Disney vacation planner will go back and rebook your trip so that you get the new low rate for your tickets and park visit.

Your dedicated Disney vacation planner can even set up a no-interest rate payment plan so you don’t need to pay for your Walt Disney trip all at once.

The best part of your Star Wars story adventure? You get all of Disney’s benefits at no extra cost to you! That’s right – the services of an Authorized Disney Vacation Planner are totally free! You’ll never pay a commission to use their services, and you’ll never pay more than if you had booked your trip directly through Disney’s own website.

There’s really no downside to utilizing the services of an experienced Disney travel agent to plan your Star Wars vacation.

How Much Does Disney’s Star Wars Hotel Cost?

Disney’s Star Wars hotel is a groundbreaking achievement and ushers in a new class of luxury travel. The experience could be described as an immersive theater sleepover party. All this entertainment does come with a pretty steep price tag.

A family of 4 can expect to pay around $5999 ($749 per guest per night) to book a standard Star Wars cabin. It will be closer to $5299 ($1209 per guest per night) for a party of 3 or $4809 ($889 per guest per night) if you are a party of 2 adults.

The cost varies depending on the size of your room, the size of your party, the time of year (summer tickets will be more expensive), and even the day you go to Walt Disney World.

Here are the different types of Star Wars resort cabins you can choose from:
