Alton Towers Vlog | Day 1 | September 2020 | Blue Pyjama Suite at the Alton Towers Hotel

Join my friend Gary C and I for a short-break at Alton Towers Resort in the UK! We stay overnight at the Alton Towers Hotel in the Big Pyjama Room Suite, enjoy some fun in the theme park, try our hand at mini-golf and tour the other accommodations to help you get a good overview of the resort.

DISCLAIMER: In accordance with guidelines in England at the time of filming (where Gary and I both reside), we are now part of the same support bubble (household). Single adults who live by themselves (me/Adam) can join another household to create what is called a 'support bubble.' Members of a support bubble/the same household, do not have to social distance.

Both of our living situations and comfort levels have made this vlog series possible. Of course, not everyone will have the same considerations as us and guidelines are changing regularly and by region. With this in mind, please note information and opinions shared in this vlog may change and that we are both exercising caution and doing what we personally feel safe and comfortable doing, in trialing bringing you new content. These are tricky times to navigate and I recommend only doing what you feel comfortable doing, based on your personal circumstances.

In today's vlog, we start out our short-break by parking up at the Alton Towers Hotel and entering via the hotel guest entrance (open until 11:30am in the morning). This entrance places us at the back of the park and right next to Galactica (the world's first flying roller coaster, formerly known as Air).

We go on to ride Nemesis, The Blade, Dual, grab lunch at the Easter Express, ride Wickerman, take the Skyride round to the Dark Forest, ride Smiler and Oblivion before calling it a day on the Theme Park. We stop-by the Oktoberfest set-up at the front of the park before picking up an ice-cream and starting the walk back to the hotel for check-in.

For this stay, we decided to splash out on a special room, a suite in fact! Our suite was called the Big Pyjama Room and features an array of 'Silent Night' like branding throughout. It includes a giant hot-air-balloon bed, a double sofa bed and flying machine bunk-bed. In total, the suite can host up to six guests. It includes double sinks, hand-painted walls and special sound effects. All-in-all, it was a really fun overnight stay!

After giving you a full room tour of our suite, we take a look around the main bar and gardens, before venturing over to the Extraordinary Golf course for some mini-golf (9 holes included in our stay). We also take a look around the Splash Landings Hotel, the Star Gazing Pods and a quick look at the Enchanted Village. We end up retiring to our room for room service pizza and to enjoy the patio singer from the comfort of our room.

During the vlog, we share our thoughts on the social distancing measures in place at Alton Towers, our personal comfort levels and review the rides, dining and hotel as a whole.
