Alton Towers in Staffordshire is planning a substantial extension to its Alton Towers Hotel which would include 74 new bedrooms and a restaurant.
The hotel would be located at the rear of the existing Alton Towers Hotel gardens, behind the Alton Towers Spa. Bedrooms would be located on the ground, first and second floors and would be themed ‘colonial-styled’ family rooms. The restaurant would accommodate up to 200 guests.
The hotel would also include an entertainment space similar to that in the Alton Towers Hotel and Splash Landings Hotel on site.
If planning permission is granted, Merlin Entertainments, owners of the theme park, anticipate construction on the new extension commencing in the first quarter of 2016 with a potential opening date of mid-late 2017.
