Alton Towers Resort confirmed today (2 January) that its Spa facilities have officially closed.  

A spokesperson at Alton Towers Resort said: "After careful consideration, we have taken the difficult decision to close the Spa located on-site. 

"This was a difficult decision but one we feel is essential for the future growth and development of the Resort. 

"Our top priority has been supporting our employees at the Spa during this time, including with advice on career opportunities available across the Resort. 

"We are also in the process of contacting guests with bookings in 2024 to discuss alternative options. We sincerely appreciate the loyalty and support of our valued guests and dedicated colleagues throughout the years."

Up to 10 staff are affected by the closure, but the Resort said they are looking to re-assign as many as possible.
