The amenities and rooms at the space hotel will be more or less similar to on earth. As per the space station, the hotel will have deluxe accommodations for up to 280 guests. Not only this, there will be villas too for buying purpose as vacation homes. The hotel will also feature a gym, bar, gourmet restaurant, and an entertainment center.
