Following the news that it is developing a Star Wars Theme Park with choose-your-own-adventure elements, Disney announced that it will also be building an interactive Star Wars Hotel.
At the recent D23 Expo in Los Angeles, California, Disney stated that all cast members will be costumed and in character, and each guest who is welcomed will have their own storyline that will "touch every minute of [their] day." To become true "citizens of the galaxy," guests will also be invited to dress up to fit the part.
In keeping with the location of the Star Wars universe, the hotel coming to Walt Disney World in Florida is set to have windows that display only fantastical scenes from outer space. As such, Disney is calling this new, highly immersive experience "unlike anything that exists today."
