British holidaymakers are reporting a large outbreak of illness at the Lindos Imperial in Greece.
Visitors have commented on the review website TripAdvisor after suffering symptoms including sickness and diarrhoea during their stay at the hotel. Many stated that they required medical attention from local doctors at the resort.
One hotel guest commented: âThe worst of it all was the bacterial bug that left hundreds of guests with violent sickness and diarrhoea.
âGuests were vomiting outside the restaurant, up the stairs, in all public areas. The incident at the hotel made the local news yet the hotel would take no responsibility.
âOne of the guests I heard shouting in reception was a doctor. Her child was ill and she saw all the symptoms of a bacterial bug associated with food or water. The hotel said it was not their food or water.
âMonday evening my husband became ill, my youngest 2am on Tuesday, my eldest at 7am, and myself at 9pm. Thankfully we flew home Wednesday. We are still ill now.â
Another holidaymaker claimed that âat least 400 people have gone down with the bugâ. Adding that they âhad to pay a doctor 180 euros for medicineâ after falling ill at the Lindos Imperial.
Anne Thomson, Head of Travel Law at Your Holiday Claims, commented: âThe reports we have read from holidaymakers at the Lindos Imperial are very worrying.
âConsuming contaminated food or drink can lead to suffering serious illness and quickly ruin a hard earned holiday.
âI hope that the tour operators and hotel management at the Lindos Imperial will investigate the current hygiene standards at the hotel to protect the health of all holidaymakers.
âI would urge anyone who has fallen ill on holiday at the Lindos Imperial to contact Your Holiday Claims for advice.â
