What Is the Case?

On November 10, 2025, the complaint was filed in the U.S. District Court for the Middle District of Pennsylvania (Case No. 1:25-cv-02123) by a plaintiff identified as “S.J.” against a group of defendants described broadly as hospitality entities including:

  • Harrisburg Hershey Hospitality, LLC (doing business as Holiday Inn Express Harrisburg East-Hershey Area by IHG)
  • InterContinental Hotels Corporation / InterContinental Hotels Group, etc.
  • Other hotel/management companies including Best Western, TownPlace Suites by Marriott, Country Inn & Suites by Radisson (via named defendants)

The nature of suit is described as “P.I.: Other Personal Injury” (360 Torts – Personal Injury – Other) in the docket.

Key Allegations & Legal Theories

Although the public dockets currently offer limited details on the factual allegations, plaintiffs in lawsuit cases like this against Harrisburg Hershey Hospitality may assert claims such as:

  • Strict liability for a dangerous condition on hotel property
  • Failure to warn or provide safe conditions to guests
  • Breach of duty of care by hospitality operators

Because the action is at an early stage (filed November 2025), other claims (e.g., gross negligence, punitive damages, regulatory violations) may be added as case developments unfold.

What Makes This Litigation Significant?

The case names multiple hotel brands and property owners, which may indicate a broader exposure across the Harrisburg–Hershey market. Although presently styled as one plaintiff (“S.J.”), the pattern of naming many defendants suggests the possibility of additional claimants / consolidated actions. The federal court’s involvement may allow for coordination of related claims across state and federal courts, increasing legal visibility and potential for broader impact. With filings only as of late 2025, critical issues such as discovery, expert proof, liability and damages will still be developed.

Who Is Potentially Affected?

Guests, patrons or employees of the hospitality properties identified in the complaint — or similar hotel properties operated by the same defendants in the Harrisburg–Hershey area — who experienced injury, exposure to a hazardous condition, or inadequate safety measures may wish to speak with an attorney. If you believe you suffered harm in a hotel stay (or as an employee of a hotel) connected with any of the named or related defendants, you may have a claim.

What You Should Do if You Believe You’re Impacted

  • Preserve documentation: Keep any reservation details, hotel correspondence, incident reports, photographs of the condition, bills, medical records, and witness contacts.
  • Speak to counsel promptly: Time limits (statutes of limitations) apply in personal injury lawsuits, especially when cross-state or federal defendants are involved.
  • Avoid speculation online: Let your attorney review the facts — liability depends on proof of duty, breach and causation, among other elements.
  • Track case developments: As more information, motion practice and discovery emerges, your legal options may evolve.
