Currently in the process of rebranding and still operating under the old Holiday Inn name, this is the former Exhibition & Conference Centre location. It can be tricky to locate if you're searching for Bevilla, and it does have a somewhat deserted feel. The site is a bit out of town but has good transport links. There’s plenty of parking available, and the rooms are standard with a comfy bed. I booked through Booking.com and received some confusing emails before my arrival, which was not very helpful. I couldn't reach the hotel directly to sort it out. The highlight was definitely the staff, who were all wonderful and went above and beyond to ensure I felt safe and comfortable. This was especially appreciated as a solo female traveler and the only guest during Christmas!

I booked this place for around 20 pounds a night, and honestly, the value is hard to beat. There are plenty of other positives too. The room was quite spacious compared to typical UK accommodations and was generally tidy. The bus stop is just a 4-minute walk away, with numerous services that take you directly to the city center. Plus, there are coffee shops and fast food options within a 10-minute stroll. There's even a church next door that has a coffee shop! The staff were super accommodating, allowing a late checkout at 1pm, which was fantastic. As others have mentioned, it still has the Holiday Inn branding, and it's listed as Belvilla... you can find it as the ex-Holiday Inn Express on Google, so with that info, locating it should be a breeze.
