“Imagine being in a weightless spa watching 15 sunsets in one day.” Tired of Earth based hotels? A Barcelona based group is planning on launching a space hotel called “Galactic Suite” with an opening date set for 2012. A three day stay at the hotel will set you back $4 million. According to company director Xavier Claramunt, “It’s the bathrooms in zero gravity that are the biggest challenge” and “how to accommodate the more intimate activities of the guests is not easy.” Imagine a vacation where you go around the world in 80 minutes. The galactic hotel takes you from 0 - 28,000 km/h in just 10 seconds. For the astronaut training process, you get sent to a gorgeous tropical island. Sounds a little too good to be true!  Galactic Suite's mission is to offer the most thrilling and transcendent experience ever: an orbital stay onboard The Galactic Suite Space Resort, and provide a fully integrated space tourism experience by weaving together an unprecedented concept that will combine a briefed astronaut training process with a relaxing time in a tropical paradise island as the preparation for this space journey.
Our ultimate goal is to be the world's largest chain of space resports, and to make space tourism accessible to the general public. Our company plans to have its first orbital resort by the end of 2012.
