    One day at Alton Towers is brilliant. Two days is unforgettable.

    If you're thinking about making a proper break of it, Alton Towers Resort has five uniquely themed places to stay - all on site, all steps from the rides. The iconic Alton Towers Hotel puts you right in the heart of the resort, while Splash Landings Hotel is the one for families who want easy access to the Waterpark.
