The space station / hotel will be a great circle and will rotate to generate artificial gravity that will be set at a similar level to the gravity that we can find on the surface of the Moon.
The space hotel, under the name Voyager , will include many of the features found on a cruise ship, including themed restaurants, a spa, and a movie theater.
How much it will cost to build is unknown, but it appears that reusable launch vehicles like the SpaceX Falcon 9 and the future Starship are cutting costs considerably.
The space station will be made up of a series of rings, with a series of 'modules' attached to the outer ring. Some of these 24 modules will be in charge of the Gateway Foundation and will serve for accommodation of the crew, air, water and energy. They will also include a gym, kitchen, restaurant, bar and other essential facilities. The other modules will be leased or sold to private companies and governments.
The integrated room modules will be 20 meters long by 12 meters wide.
But first, the team plans to test the concept with a much smaller-scale prototype station and a free-flight microgravity facility similar to the International Space Station as a test.
"This will be the next industrial revolution ," explained John Blincow, founder of the Gateway Foundation, adding that it will create a new space industry.
