Travelodge has exchanged contracts to develop a new hotel in Bridgend, marking its 21st property in South Wales.
The 80-room site will be created through the conversion of Waterton House, a vacant office building that has been unoccupied since 2022.
Construction is expected to begin in May 2026 in partnership with Wavendon Land. The project has received planning permission for a change of use, repurposing the existing structure to avoid the carbon impact associated with new construction.
The hotel will feature the brand’s 85 Bar Cafe and on-site car parking. Developers intend to achieve a BREEAM Very Good rating by installing air source heat pumps and comfort cooling systems throughout the premises.
The site is located at the junction of the A48 and A473, approximately two miles from Bridgend town centre.
Travelodge currently operates 600 hotels across the UK and has identified a requirement for more than 300 additional locations.
Tony O’Brien, UK development director at Travelodge, said: “This is a great example of how we can sustainably grow by repurposing vacant buildings. Bridgend is a well-connected location, and this hotel will deliver high-quality, great-value accommodation for both business and leisure travellers.”

It is a long established fact that a reader will be distracted by the readable content of a page when looking at its layout. The point of using Lorem Ipsum is that it has a more-or-less normal distribution of letters, as opposed to using ‘Content here, content here’, making it look like readable English. Many desktop publishing packages and web page editors now use Lorem Ipsum as their default model text, and a search for ‘lorem ipsum’ will uncover many web sites still in their infancy.
