Disney revealed plans to launch a new Star Wars hotel in a galaxy far, far, away in July last year at the D23 Expo in Los Angeles and also revealed it will be a part of Disney World’s Star Wars: Galaxy Edge land. Disney has now revealed details for the Star Wars-themed hotel that will be an immersive resort that has 'never been seen before'.
The property is slated to open in 2019. The company has said that it will allow the experience to be seamlessly connected.
The hotel will be designed in the shape of a star-ship, guests will have a story-line created specially for them and every cabin window in the lobby, restaurants and bedrooms will have views of space.

The company stated on the Disney Parks blog: "Families visiting this destination will board a star ship that comes alive with characters and stories that unfold all around them during their voyage through the galaxy – and every cabin window has views of space! Guests visiting the multi-day adventure will also be welcome to participate as a resident of the Galaxy by dressing in Star Wars-inspired attire."
Disney also revealed the name of the village in the park where the attractions will be based - Black Spire Outpost.
Here's what some of the fans tweeted after the announcement.
