Hilton Hotel Bed Bugs

Hilton Hotels & Resorts is one of the largest and most well-known hotel chains in the world, with branches including DoubleTree, Hilton Garden Inn, Waldorf Astoria, Hampton, Embassy Suites, and others.

While this company is known for its high level of quality, Hilton hotels are not invulnerable to bed bug infestations.

Why You Need to Check Hilton Hotel Rooms for Bed Bug Infestations

Whenever you’re at a Hilton hotel, one of the first steps you should take is to check the room for bed bugs prior to settling into the room. Guests can spot bed bugs at all stages of life, from eggs to adults, and waste is often visible if the bed bugs themselves aren’t, in the form of rust or black-colored spots.

You can perform a check on the room by first pulling back bed sheets and inspecting closely for signs of bed bugs along the seams of the mattress, underneath the mattress, along the baseboards, and behind the headboard. They may also appear in furniture.

If you see any signs of bed bug infestations present in the room, it’s important to immediately take photographs of any bed bug evidence you find and notify managers, who can then take care of the problem and help you switch to a room in another area of the hotel. It is important you also document the name of each hotel staff member you speak with about the incident.

When You Should File a Claim for Hotel Bed Bug Infestations

To file a claim against a hotel upon experiencing bed bug bites that have resulted in physical and emotional distress, you need to be able to prove that the hotel staff’s negligence was the cause of the infestation. Proof will consist of any evidence that clearly shows that your injuries resulted from negligence, which may include cases in which the owner was aware of the infestation but neglected to take the appropriate action to exterminate it or based on the extent of infestation; would have discovered the condition if care had been exercised to inspect for any infestation

Upon noticing any bed bug bites, take photographs of them along with any evidence of bed bug presence in the hotel room. Make sure you document all of the medical care you receive, along with any lost wages that resulted from missing work because of your injuries, and other evidence that can further prove that negligence resulted in the infestation.
