The amount of money being spent on this isnt just ridiculous, it's obscene.

ROFLMAO!
"We figure theres only 40 000 people in the world who can afford to stay at this hotel."
That made me crack up.

Sounds pretty awesome. If I had 4 mil to blow, I would definitely stay in space for a weekend.

How about it stop at people who actually played it at BlizzCon but went there under their own money.

Omg, that would pwn the gap between the rich and the poor.

Rawr no more Bill Gates then.
Anyway, something somewhat on the same subject - Isn't it true that some people are stupid enough to buy a piece (ground) of the moon, even though those papers have no legal value since the moon is international territory?

If I had 4 million dollars, there is no way on this green Earth that I'd spend it on a 3 day HOTEL visit. I'd buy a nice house, and a few financial investments... screw space exploration I say.
Nice Earthly Toys or gtfo.

I'm gonna do it.
Its Barcelona-based architects say the space hotel will be the most expensive in the galaxy, costing $4 million for a three-day stay.
How do they KNOW that? For all we know aliens regularly shell out 20 million quid on a holiday.

I would probably grab a space suit and chase Donald Trump around craters pretending I was an X-Wing. Shoom Shoom!

But then suddenly, space pirates hijack the ISS and use it to assault the hotel.

The ISS has the NASA behind it, they'll probably assist the Pirates because they want their ship back. Alos, the ISS has actually astronauts onboard instead of hotel managers.

You could expect terrorist bombings in the first days but that will be taken care off...

Unfortunately, I don't have the millions. I can't do it.

I guess watching a music filled room with a dozen ballroom dancers in zero gravity would be cool...

I can't imagine going to the toilet in zero gravity would be nice, neither would taking a shower and stuff like that.
Is someone seriously going to pay so much for such a huge lack of comfort?

Does it include airfare?
“How to accommodate the more intimate activities of the guests is not easy.”
Mmm. Space sex :P

Yeah. Imagine the stuff you could do in zerogee.

Mmm. Space sex :PWith quasi-futuristic tinfoil condoms and "anti-gravity" bed straps?
TheListener

Anti gravity bed straps? The entire point is to be floating while you're having sex!
Funny thing is the guy would probably pull out of the girl about 12 times due to the directional pull.

Perhaps an elastic band around the two of them would work best.
