GRU Space is taking deposits up to $1 million for the Moon hotel it plans to launch around 2032, with earlier tests to begin via NASA’s CLPS program in 2029. The project uses inflatable hotel structures and lunar brick technology, aiming to expand from a four-guest first version to larger lunar complexes, backed by investors from SpaceX and Anduril and targeting thrill-seekers and former spaceflight participants alike.
California-based Galactic Resource Utilization Space (GRU) is taking $1 million deposits to reserve stays in a planned Moon hotel that GRU says could begin construction in 2029 and open by 2032, targeting ultra-wealthy travelers and couples seeking an off-Earth honeymoon; the company plans to use proprietary habitation modules and lunar-soil structures, pending regulatory approval, to accelerate a lunar economy and broader space presence.
GRU Space plans a series of lunar habitats culminating in a Palace of the Fine Arts–style hotel. Prospective guests can place deposits from $250,000 to $1 million to secure a berth on early Moon missions, with initial tests (inflatable habitats and Moon-brick production) starting as early as 2029 and a four-guest hotel expected by 2032, backed in part by Y Combinator funding as the company pushes a new pillar for space commerce beyond government and billionaire ventures.
