Humans love to travel, to explore, and to experience new things. And because of that love and curiosity, it even pushed for the development of space exploration where astronauts go out of the earth to travel the universe and explore the unknown.  But not all of us can do that. The good thing is, some hotels and accommodations are bringing the space travel experience closer to its customers through space themed hotels and parks. One of those establishments is the Grande Centre Point Space. Located at Pattaya, in Thailand, this hotel is named as Thailand's first-ever space themed hotel.  A product of innovative cutting edge design and technology, this hotel has 490 space rooms and suites inspired from actual space capsules, 12,000 square meter space water park, game zones, and a lot more.  (Image from Grande Centre Point Space's Facebook page)
Prior check-in, guests can already have a taste of space’s top-notch technology. By moving their hands to the 88 square meter interactive wall, they can embark on fun and exciting adventures by completing computer generated missions.  In time of entering their capsules, they will be greeted by a space equipped with Wi-Fi, bathtub, shower, balcony with overlooking view of Pattaya Beach, that they enjoy with complimentary snacks and softdrinks in every room. Meanwhile, those who will book their own space suites will have all of the mentioned features plus built-in bluetooth speaker, capsule coffee with its machine, and jacuzzi. At night time, guests can opt to switch on the space light features in the room. These lights mimic the wonders of celestial space at night. It’s like exploring the universe while laying in the comfort of their own bed.  After a relaxing sleep, guests can enjoy the hotel’s vast water park. This Space Water Park is divided into four theme zones—flying rocks, mountain, space pirate beach, and planet zone. Adrenaline junkies will have a great time in flying zones for it has two water chutes including an eight-meter slide tower, that will send them flying into an endless loop. This zone also has its outdoor playground with a sandpit and trampoline.  Aerial shot of the 12,000 sq. meter space water park (Image from Grande Centre Point Space's Facebook page)

Made with artificial white sand beach with waves, this zone also has its own space beach bar that does not simply offer drinks but some of Thailand’s famous street food. Lastly, families, especially the kids will enjoy the planet zone, as it has its own mini golf course, pool, and amphitheater.  On top of all of these, Grande Centre Point Space Pattaya is also boasting its various in-house restaurants including the Orbit that has 420 sitting capacity and offers a wide selection of buffet and other menu options.
