Holiday Inn Express Bed Bug Victims Receives £3,000 Compensation

At Holiday Claims Bureau, we specialise in helping victims of bed bug infestations pursue successful bed bug claims . One such victim, our client Nikky, endured a traumatic experience during her stay at the Holiday Inn Express in Stoke-on-Trent.

What was meant to be a relaxing week-long break turned into a distressing ordeal when Nikky began noticing red, itchy welts on her body. Early into Nikky’s stay, she discovered live bed bugs crawling on her hotel bed, confirming her worst fears.

The Impact of Bed Bug Bites

Nikky suffered a series of painful, inflamed bites across her arms, legs, chest, and back. The bed bug bites caused intense itching, burning sensations, and visible skin discolouration that a medical expert described as likely to be permanent. She was prescribed antibiotics and steroid cream, and the physical discomfort lasted for several weeks.

But the trauma didn’t stop there. Nikky experienced ongoing emotional distress, anxiety, and sleep disruption. She was signed off work for a week and reported a lasting fear of staying in hotels – psychological effects that are all too common in bed bug bite claim cases.

Hotel’s Negligence and Responsibility

The hotel not only failed to prevent the infestation but admitted their knowledge of the problem. Nikky was told by the manager that a room refund was a signal they knew they had issues with bed bugs. Despite her request, no incident report was provided—yet another example of the hotel’s failure in its duty of care.

Such clear negligence forms the basis of a successful bed bug bite claim, especially when a hotel exposes guests to avoidable health risks and distress.

£3,000 Bed Bug Bite Compensation Won

With the expert support of Michael Walker, founder and acting solicitor at Holiday Claims Bureau, Nikky pursued her bed bug claim with determination. Thanks to meticulous legal representation, including medical evidence and video proof of the infestation, she successfully secured £3,000 in compensation.

This outcome highlights how a professionally managed bed bug bite claim can provide both justice and financial redress for victims.
