DISNEY DOWNSIZING: House of Mouse Shutters Star Wars Hotel, Cancels Corporate Campus

posted by Hannity Staff - 5.19.23

The House of Mouse is making some major cuts down in Disney World.

According to a report from The New York Post, Disney is closing its immersive, Star Wars-themed luxury hotel experience just one year after its grand opening; it will close in September.

“We are so proud of all of the Cast Members and Imagineers who brought Star Wars: Galactic Starcruiser to life,” Disney said. “Thank you to our Guests and fans for making this experience so special.”

Disney did not specify why the “experience” was closing, but it may be part of CEO Bob Iger’s mission to cut costs by $5.5 billion dollars.

There were also many customer complaints about the sky-high price of the hotel.

From The New York Post:

Fans of the Star Wars franchise and Disney have complained about the prices at the 100-room hotel, which makes up less than 0.5% of Disney’s room inventory in the area, according to Reuters.

The average nightly cost per person is $1,209, or $4,809 for two guests.

A party of four — three adults and one child — wanting to experience the two-night adventure will spend $5,999.

Disney, who announced the hotel in 2019, reportedly spent around $2 billion to construct its Star Wars theme parks in Florida and California.

Disney also revealed it was scrapping its plans to build a whopping $1 billion corporate campus in Florida.
