Description:
In the UK, there are nearly ten thousand hotel rooms, with approximately 80% occupancy daily. However, recent research indicates a potential unwelcome guest sharing your room: bed bugs. Over the past two years, UK hotels have experienced a staggering 278% surge in bed bug levels, compiled from 2.5 million stays nationwide. <br/><br/>2024 appears to be the worst year yet, with the first three months showing over five times the bed bug cases compared to last year's same period. This follows a Paris outbreak six months ago, where travelers shared images of bed bugs in local transport, high-speed trains, and Charles de Gaulle airport. There's now a call for the industry to improve transparency in bed sheet cleanliness for better guest experience.
