It's far too much money for a room, when all you really want is a nice, comfortable bed, clean room and a decent shower. Do you really need a room as bright as that? I know I wouldn't be able to sleep in a room that's probably brighter during night than it is at the moment during the day.

I quite like the room (all of Alton Towers hotel rooms are stupidly overpriced in peak times no-matter which level it is). The shower isn't a big deal, most 4* hotels offer walk in showers these days as people don't want baths.
Still i wont be staying in it (or any other suite) as i don't wish to remortgage just to stay in a pretty room for a night.

You know that yellow paint does not actually emit light?

Yes, I was being sarcastic, which doesn't translate too well on the internet. Hence the

Some people do not like having showers, and prefer baths. Therefore, for a 'premium' themed suite I at least expect a shower and bath. Not one or the other.
Regarding the size - it's a bit hard with themed rooms these days as the hotel was designed as it was. There's not a lot they can do to extend the rooms without coming into a lot of hassle with knocking down walls, re-enforcing them etc... Not that I'm making an excuse on Alton's part, but it would cost more for them to knock down walls to build extended rooms. They just want to refurb old standard rooms then flog them off as premium themed rooms.
