The Holte Hotel
The Holte Hotel is part of Aston Villa history and used to be packed to the rafters before every single home game. Regulars and loyal supporters who would watch Villa through thick and thin would use the Holte before and after each and every game.
When it closed, the building was just left. It had no use and was just wasting away on the corner of Villa Park.

The Redevelopment Plans.
In December 2006 Aston Villa announced plans to restore the historic Holte Hotel, with work due for completion for around May 2007.
Official's were delighted to confirm that a pub lounge will be the focal point of the project so fans can use it on match days starting from the 2007-2008 season. |
Structural work began in November 2006 to secure the very old building and to restore it to its former glory.
The completed project will include a pub lounge feature on the ground floor, with further facilities on the upper floors including function rooms for the prospect of live beam-backs of the clubs away fixtures.
The Holte Pub As it is today.
The Holte pub is now complete and open and many fans have stated its not what it used to be. It is now a tidy clean upmarket pub offering both drinks and food. It doesn't have your typical pub feel about it.
With the wooden floors, to the plasma televisions mounted on the walls to the leather chairs scattered on all three floors.
Many fans were then disappointed with the fact that its selected fans on match days, meaning you cant use it as your regular pub.
