An overnight stay also includes a complimentary breakfast, entry to the Caribbean-themed waterpark, and crazy golf.
The Christmas-themed staycations are available from £85 per person this November and December.
This year, are running from November 24 to December 23, but they're already starting to book quickly.
Alton Towers isn't the only theme park in the UK adding to its Christmas line-up this year either.
Earlier this month, Chessington World of Adventures announced the latest attraction to feature at Winter's Tail.
In addition to festive favourites like the seasonal pantomime and the Christmas sing-along, the theme park has also introduced a new attraction called Enchanted Hollow.
The underground town, and its buildings, which include a mayor's office and a post office, will be covered head-to-toe in Christmas decorations.
Winter's Tail will run for five weeks at the theme park.
There's plenty of other action going on at Alton Towers too.
After being closed for eight years, the park recently reopened a fan-favourite drop tower ride, Nemesis Sub-Terra.
Dark drop tower Nemesis Sub-Terra first opened in 2012, only to close three years later as part of a downsizing of the park in 2015.
The much-loved tower ride reopened on May 27, 2023.
Earlier this year, Alton Towers also announced the reopening of the Nemesis rollercoaster.
The Nemesis rollercoaster opened in 2014, but it closed in November 2022 ahead of a huge renovation project.
John Wardley who designed Nemesis, said passengers should sit at the front of a rollercoaster for the most "disorientating" experience.
