The Barcelona based Galactic Suite, is planning to complete construction and receive guests for the first ever space hotel by 2012. Gusts of the Galactic Suite Space Resort will be charged $4.4 million for a three night stay, which includes eight weeks of training on a tropical island before launch.



Guests will enjoy 15 sunrises while aboard the space hotel, and travel around the world every 80 minutes. The way in which guests will traverse their cabin is by wearing velcro suites that keep them anchored to the walls.

It will be quite an impressive achievement if the space hotel does indeed launch, although some have criticized Space Suite for its hasty time line. The most outspoken critics have stated the time frame for launch is unreasonable.
