Russia recently announced a plan for a space hotel. They will build a hotel in space with a total of 4 cabins for 7 tourists. It is expected to be officially put into operation in 2016. The space hotel will be a hundred times more comfortable than the ordinary International Space Station: Passengers can choose their own bed, and at the same time, they can take a bath and enjoy a variety of food - these are things that astronauts cannot enjoy on the International Space Station. Of course, space hotels are expensive, with a five-day stay costing between ?100,000 and ?500,000.
