Splash Landings Hotel
Splash Landings Hotel is a family-oriented lodging near Alton Towers Park in Staffordshire Moorlands, England. It features themed rooms in bright colors, an indoor water park with slides and pools, restaurants including Flambo's Jambo with buffet service, and multiple bars and food outlets.
The hotel opened in 2003 as an expansion of the Alton Towers Resort to offer family accommodation. The opening was troubled, with incomplete construction and the water park not fully operational, requiring temporary closure for finishing work.
The name and design reflect a Caribbean island theme that visitors encounter immediately upon arrival. Bright decorations, tropical motifs, and steel drum music create a relaxed holiday feeling where families feel free to let loose and enjoy themselves without formality.
The hotel sits directly beside Alton Towers Park and offers hotel guests a dedicated entrance allowing early theme park access and shorter queues. Luggage can be stored at reception upon arrival, letting guests start their day immediately.
The hotel is built around a fictional story of a Caribbean village saved from erupting geysers by Paradise Plumbers, a concept woven throughout the design and themed spaces. This fantasy narrative adds playfulness to the experience and gives extra meaning to room types like the Pirate and Ice Cave suites.
