Title: Alton Towers Post by: janaage on Monday, June 25, 2007, 14:28:13 Anyone been recently, thinking off staying over in the Alton Towers Hotel and then into the theme park for the day.
Good/bad idea??? Title: Alton Towers Post by: Samdy Gray on Monday, June 25, 2007, 14:30:50 Rip off. Simple as.
It'd probably be cheaper to come home for the night and travel back the next day. The only 'bonus' of staying in the hotel is you get to go into the park an hour earlier than the public. Title: Alton Towers Post by: janaage on Monday, June 25, 2007, 14:31:53 Is the hotel not that impressive then??
Title: Alton Towers Post by: Samdy Gray on Monday, June 25, 2007, 14:33:37 It's a glorified B&B.
Title: Alton Towers Post by: Jamiesfuturewife on Monday, June 25, 2007, 15:00:40 I wouldnt go for the Splash landings hotel - its more geared towards familys and kids - although the water park itsself is good fun
the spa in the other hotel is nice is you wanna treat your girlfriend Dont ever be lured by the out of season deals where they open the park for hotel guests - when we went they opened 2 rides - one of which was Hex and it broke down when we were on it! waste of time and money! Title: Alton Towers Post by: magicroundabout on Monday, June 25, 2007, 15:08:43 to be fair £285 for a night at the hotel + theme park is a rip off.
the splash landings water park is great fun though. i'd not pay for it again Title: Alton Towers Post by: Jamiesfuturewife on Monday, June 25, 2007, 15:11:41 me neither!
I went to a gorgeous hotel on a site visit on Friday - The Grove in Watford! LUSHIOUS!! Title: Alton Towers Post by: Bushey Boy on Monday, June 25, 2007, 15:43:54 Gonna be a PGA gold course, three course meal at christmas for a family plus stay (5 people) was quoted at £2,495 last year. I will book us a room JFW
Title: Alton Towers Post by: Jamiesfuturewife on Monday, June 25, 2007, 16:07:53 I get agents rates babe! £75 a night - we could live there??
Oh and I saw Gus from Eastenders in the bar which made me very excited! Title: Alton Towers Post by: Luci on Monday, June 25, 2007, 16:09:38 Big group of us are most prob doing this for the end of Oct as they have late opening fireworks etc. Theres loads of nice B&B's nearby, I'd go for one of them. Were hiring out a whole one but rates are much better and affordable.
