[edit] Characteristics

The hotel had a series of turbolifts running up and down its sides, expansive windows showing the surrounding cityscape and at least one dining hall.

[edit] History

It was the most high-class hotel in Cloud City, frequented by dignitaries and celebrities. It is possible that it was also the name of a person for whom the Bespin system was named for. Yarith Figg could also be the namesake.

The casino was the location of the Cloud City Sabacc Tournament final that was contested by Lando Calrissian and Han Solo, in which Solo won the Millennium Falcon from Lando.

In 3 ABY, having reached Bespin after the Battle of Hoth, Han Solo, Leia Organa, Chewbacca and C-3PO were given a luxurious apartment suite in this hotel by Lando Calrissian, while they waited for the Millennium Falcon to be repaired.
