ALL the Exclusive Merchandise You Can Buy at the Star Wars Hotel in Disney World

By 6 Comments

We’ve seen the movies. Let’s be real here. Princess Leia isn’t exactly wearing a t-shirt, shorts, and flip flops on all of her adventures. So what if you arrive at the Star Wars Hotel, see the fully in-theme characters around you, and suddenly feel the urge to put giant buns in your hair and wear a FULL Star Wars-inspired outfit (that you will then pull out of your closet once a year to wear for no reason whatsoever)? Or maybe you just want to buy a trinket to commemorate your experience? Don’t panic! Like any good Disney experience, even in space there’s a gift shop! ⭐MERCHANDISING!⭐

Merchandise on the Galactic Starcruiser

While we were busy cruising in a galaxy far, far away, we spent a lot of time eating some unique food, going on some fun missions for the Resistance (and maybe also the First Order — don’t judge us! 😂), and sleeping in space. But we also spent some time shopping and we’ve got photos of EVERY piece of merchandise you can buy on the Galactic Starcruiser! From full-on outfits, to shirts, to water bottles — we’re covering it all for you.

FULL REVIEW: Yes, Dinner Night 2 Is DIFFERENT at the Star Wars Hotel in Disney World

By 2 Comments

We’d like to address the elephant in the room (maybe it’s not really an elephant in the room ’cause people are talking about it more than they talk about Bruno, but anyway). Yes, there is blue shrimp in space (apparently). Yes, we ate it. Yes, it is as…unique…as it looks. But here’s what you need to know about the food during your second dinner at Disney World’s Star Wars Hotel — it’s not just all about the blue shrimp.

Star Wars Hotel Atrium

We recently got to take a special media trip on Star Wars: Galactic Starcruiser (a.k.a. the Star Wars Hotel), and the entire experience will open to all guests soon.

By 5 Comments

Want to take your Star Wars Hotel experience to the NEXT LEVEL? Want that VIP-style treatment? Want to sit at the center of everything and get access to an exclusive experience? Get ready.

Galactic Starcruiser

There’s a lot about the new Star Wars Hotel (Star Wars: Galactic Starcruiser) that already feels very exclusive. First of all, there’s the big price tag that comes with a stay there, making it an exclusive experience in of itself. And some special experiences onboard like lightsaber training, Sabacc tournaments, and the perks guests get on Batuu, make it feel even more special. But there’s one experience that actually is quite exclusive since only a handful of guests staying at the Star Wars Hotel will get to experience it each night at the hotel. We investigated to see if this bonus experience is worth the extra cost and whether you should add it to your itinerary if you’re visiting this new hotel. [Read more…]
