Space-themed hotel opening near Kennedy Space Center
TITUSVILLE, Fla. - A new Courtyard by Marriott in Titusville, Florida is targeting space lovers looking for a great view.
"Half of the rooms look over the river towards the Space Center. You can see Blue Origin. You can see the Vehicle Assembly Building. Right now you can see the launch pad where Artemis is sitting," general manager Wayne Soard told FOX 35 News.
There's also a rooftop bar, great for rocket launch days.

The hotel is located right across the Indian River from Kennedy Space Center.
