New Bug Hotel

I was given one of these for a Xmas present, which has just been sitting in the kitchen since.
I can't make up my mind whether to put it up now on the top of the wall (facing southeast, backed by a fence) where my existing one is, or whether to wait till the spring. I have to admit I've seen no signs of any inhabitants of the existing box, although we had plenty of bees and other insects in the garden. Any advice please?

Barry Island - it is surprising isn't it. I've left my Japanese Anemones in situ this year as before when I cut them down when they turned black, loads of hibernating ladybirds were disturbed - making me feel very guilty.
