£2,500 Bed Bug Claim Success After Surrey Hotel Stay

At Holiday Claims Bureau, we successfully secured £2,500 compensation for Mr Parsons following a distressing bed bug incident during his stay at The Oatlands Chaser Hotel in Weybridge, Surrey.

This successful bed bug claim highlights how guests affected by poor hotel hygiene can hold hotel operators accountable and recover the compensation they deserve.

Bed Bug Infestation Following a Hotel Stay

Mr Parsons booked what should have been a straightforward overnight hotel stay. Unfortunately, after sleeping in the hotel bed, Mr Parsons later identified clear signs of a bed bug infestation, including visible insects in the bedding.

In the days that followed, Mr Parsons suffered over 200 painful bed bug bites across his body. These bites caused severe itching, inflammation and discomfort, significantly affecting his well-lbeing.

Medical advice confirmed the injuries were consistent with bed bug bites, and the hotel later acknowledged the infestation after pest control inspections.

How We Pursued the Bed Bug Claim

Mr Parsons contacted Holiday Claims Bureau for expert legal support with his bed bug claim. We gathered strong evidence, including medical reports, photographic proof and documentation confirming the presence of bed bugs at the hotel.

By clearly demonstrating that the hotel had failed in its duty of care, we were able to progress the claim efficiently and reach a successful settlement.

£2,500 Compensation Secured

As a result of the evidence we presented, we successfully secured £2,500 in compensation for Mr Parsons. This reflected:

• Pain, discomfort and extensive itching
• Distress and anxiety caused by the bed bug infestation
• The disruption and worry caused after the hotel stay

This result demonstrates that even a short hotel stay can justify compensation where standards fall below what guests are legally entitled to expect.

Reaction from Holiday Claims Bureau

“We’re seeing a growing number of bed bug claims, and hotels have a clear responsibility to provide safe, hygienic accommodation. In Mr Parsons’ case, the evidence showed that duty had been breached, and we’re pleased to have secured a fair outcome as quickly as possible.” – Mr Walker, Holiday Claims Bureau

Mr Parsons’ Experience

“The whole experience was extremely unpleasant and stressful. I was worried about the bites and the impact it could have at home. Holiday Claims Bureau handled everything professionally and kept me informed throughout. I’m very relieved with the outcome and grateful for their support.”
