What Is A Hotel Accident Claim?
All hotels have a legal duty of care towards people who use their premises. This includes staff, guests and other people who may use the hotel such as a contractor, or a hotel inspector. The hotel’s duty of care means that they are supposed to take every possible precaution to provide people who use the hotel with a safe and hygienic environment. If the hotel fails to uphold these standards it may be defined as negligence. If an accident happens because of negligence at a hotel, in which a guest or another person such as an employee is injured, then the hotel could be held liable for the person’s injuries and have to pay them hotel accident compensation.
Remember, if you have been injured or made at a hotel that you booked through Trivago, because of negligence on the part of that hotel, you could be entitled to make a holiday accident claim against the hotel. Call Legal Expert today, to begin your claim for hotel accident compensation.

- Take pictures of your injuries and the hazard that caused the accident, at the scene of the accident, to provide evidence of your injuries. Include a date stamp if possible.
- Report your accident to the hotel. Make sure that they record the details of your accident, including the time, place and date accurately.
- Take down contact details of the witnesses. They may need to provide evidence at a later date.
- Keep the receipts of any purchases you made which are related to your injuries. They could provide evidence of your accident and you may also be able to claim these expenses back as special damages later.

Is There A Time Limit For Making A Hotel Or Holiday Accident Claim?

For each country it may be different so if you are unsure of the time limit in your case please call our team at the number at the bottom of the page,.

Swimming Pool Accidents And Injuries In Hotels
Have you been injured in a swimming pool accident that was not your fault? Of course, swimming has its own inherent risks and individual swimmers are responsible for behaving responsibly in the pool. However, this does not mean that hotels and other venues with a pool do not have a responsibility to maintain proper standards of health and safety in their pools. For example, not using chlorine to clean the water can lead swimmers to contract an illness that is similar to food poisoning. Cracked floor tiles can cause swimmers to fall on the poolside, or not properly labelling the deep end can cause non-swimmers to become out of their depth, causing a risk of drowning.
