Irwin Mitchell has learnt that a number of holidaymakers staying at the Tropicana Grand Azure resort in Egypt are returning from their holidays complaining of severe gastric illness.
Most recent reports of illness are from May 2012, however, we are acting for clients who holidayed at the Tropicana Grand Azure resort in 2011 who also fell ill with severe gastric symptoms, allegedly as a result of the poor standards of food hygiene at the hotel.
It is alarming to learn that such problems continue at the hotel, with recent reports suggesting that holidaymakers have contracted serious bacterial infections possibly as a result of a breakdown in food hygiene procedures. Such infections can leave permanent symptoms including an alteration of bowel habit, stomach pains and irritable bowel syndrome.
Reports indicate that the cause of the gastric illnesses may have been due to the poor quality of food and lack of hygiene standards practised at the hotel with reports of insects around food serving stations. In particular, the holidaymakers have reported that food was served undercooked and recycled food was displayed uncovered for long periods of time. It is reported that guests suffered from symptoms including violent diarrhoea, vomiting and stomach cramps.
If you also travelled to this resort and have subsequently suffered from symptoms of gastric illness or sustained an injury, Irwin Mitchell, who specialise in dealing with cases of such nature, would like to hear from you.
