How accessible accommodation works across Merlin UK resorts

Merlin’s UK resorts include destinations such as Alton Towers, Thorpe Park, Chessington World of Adventures, LEGOLAND Windsor and Warick Castle. Each resort offers different types of on-site accommodation, from large hotels to themed lodges and cabins.

While adapted rooms and wheelchair friendly options are available, layouts, distances, and facilities vary between resorts and accommodation types. This guide helps you understand what to look for and what to confirm before booking, especially if you rely on step free access, transfer space, or adapted bathrooms.

Why accessibility varies between Merlin resorts
Resorts have been built and expanded at different times and for different audiences. This means building layouts, lift access, room sizes, bathroom configurations, and distances to facilities can differ significantly. Even within the same resort, accessibility can vary by room type.
