An independent review’s found a woman who was sexually assaulted at a Travelodge hotel was “fundamentally failed” by the company.

The attacker was given a key card to the room at a hotel in Maidenhead in December 2022.

Kyran Smith, from Staines, obtained the key by falsely claiming to be the woman’s boyfriend and was jailed for seven-and-a-half years.

The report says she was treated in a “disgraceful” way and highlights wider concerns over hotel room security.

Interim boss Ray Reidy has apologised “unreservedly” on behalf of the company.
