flag A man got 7.5 years for assaulting a woman at a Maidenhead Travelodge where staff gave him her key based on a false claim.

flag A man was sentenced to seven years and six months in prison for sexually assaulting a woman at a Travelodge in Maidenhead in December 2022 after staff gave him her room key based on a false claim he was her boyfriend. flag The incident, which prompted over 100 Labour MPs to demand accountability, led to widespread criticism of Travelodge’s security procedures, particularly its lack of guest verification. flag The victim condemned the hotel’s initial offer of a £30 refund as inadequate, and Travelodge’s CEO, Jo Boydell, apologized, pledged an independent review of access policies, and agreed to meet with MPs and the victim to discuss safety improvements. flag The case has intensified calls for stronger protections for lone travelers, especially women.
