Previously, Airbnb made fantasy a reality, enabling patrons to stay in locations ranging from Barbie’s Malibu Dreamhouse to Shrek’s swamp. Now, through their new Icons category, Airbnb is going one step further, offering unique interactive experiences. One of these Icons allows X-Men fans to spend a night in Xavier’s Mansion, as envisioned in X-Men ’97.
The Icons experience places patrons in the role a new student at the Xavier Institute For Higher Learning. With Jubilee acting as their guide, they will get a chance to train in the Danger Room and conduct experiments in Dr. Henry “Beast” McCoy’s lab. Patrons will also have a choice of being able to sleep in Jubilee’s room, the new recruits dorm, or Wolverine’s room. There will also be a two-hour X-Men experience, for those who prefer a day trip to an overnight stay.
“Icons take you inside worlds that only existed in your imagination—until now,” said Brian Chesky, Airbnb co-founder and CEO. “As life becomes increasingly digital, we’re focused on bringing more magic into the real world. With Icons, we’ve created the most extraordinary experiences on Earth.”

Airbnb Icons Experiences Besides X-Men
Airbnb Icons has ten other exciting experiences to offer besides a visit to the home of the X-Men. Pixar fans can spend a night in Carl’s floating house from Up, or the Headquarters from Inside Out 2. Other experiences include a night in the Ferrari Museum, a VIP party with comedian Kevin Hart, and a living room performance from Grammy-winning artist Doja Cat.
The full list of 2024 Airbnb Icons experiences can be viewed on the Airbnb website. Requests to book the X-Men mansion open up on May 9, 2024.
