alton towers hotel

[Lordy]

I've stopped at the hotel , very nice , but haven't done the water park .

Don't expect a Disney experience though , felt a little shabby in places ...

Anyone stayed at the alton towers resort and used the water park?if so is it any good and do you need to stay for more than one night to do both the theme park and the water park? thanx for any help:)

Some friends stay here quite often and they love it. Not sure about the length of stay though.

We have stayed at Splash landings twice in january and spent Saturday and sunday in the Water Park and it was fantastic.It is the closest to Disney you will get in this country.They have got a ride similar to Crush n Gusher which was open before the florida version and i believe is as good or maybe better.we have had a fantastic time and the themeing is superb.we will go again in january:cool2: :cool2: :cool2:

I am very sorry but we have just been in March and it was appalling ! I have written to complain , they gave me a pathetic reply and i have emailed back to say , not good enough or i will take my complaints to the MD of the Tussuards group. The kids entertainment was base (all about a bear breaking wind,very clever) and the same exactly 2 nights running. My husbands birthday cake had expired by a month.Splash landings was filthy and stank. My DS fell over on some fake sand which was so rough it shredded his leg, they didn't even clean up the blood,we then couldn't go back there as his leg was so badly cut. They told us to dry our swimsuits on the radiators as there was nowhere else and my daughters suit got burned it is a wonder there wasn't a fire. They only opened 3 of the promised 7 rides but they still managed to rip you off for more cash while in there.Awful awful awful.And it was not cheap.Sorry to rant and i am someone who can usually see the bright side of everything, but not this time.Please save your several hundred £ and put it towards a WDW holiday. If it was just a set of blips that weekend well maybe but when i complained their customer service was terrible
