Alton Towers codes???

Hi, I'm hoping to take three children (aged 3,1 and baby) plus me and the husband to Alton towers hotel for one or two night break to include park and waterpark and food if possible. Can any one help with the cheapest way to do this??

    Just checked the site and as above post the theme park is closed but the hotel is open all year round

    "Alton Towers, the UK's greatest theme park, is now closed for the 2005 season and will re-open on 1 April 2006.

    However, our two fantastic hotels, plus Cariba Creek Waterpark and the Alton Towers Spa are open all year round"


    Here is the link to the alton Towers website for the hotel but I remember seeing a advert in a travel agent in my city centre and they had deals for Alton Towers hotel which was about £25-£30 per person for 1 night in the hotel plus theme park access and you also got access to the park before anyone else. Not sure how long the price was avaliable for but maybe worth checking your local travel agent to see if they have any offers as you will probably pay full whack going through Alton Towers directly unless they release any offers

    Have you tried their website.

    We went last year at the end of feb for a weekend which included hotel, a day at the water park and a couple of hours in the theme park (limited rides open though). We booked through the alton towers website as they usually have deal on.

    :D

    We had a fab weekend although the food in the hotel was VERY expensive.

    edited: oopps, didn't read Slowen's post properly!! Sorry!
    Sometimes it's important to work for that pot of gold...But other times it's essential to take time off and to make sure that your most important decision in the day simply consists of choosing which color to slide down on the rainbow...

    As posted before, the park is closed at the mo. However, last year, we got tickets through https://www.365tickets.com which cost 16.50 instead of about 30 pounds. I have just checked their website and they are not currently advertising them, but it may be worth keeping a note of their address to check later closer to park opening.
