Keys to being a sustainable hotel
Why choose sustainable accommodation? Guests are increasingly demanding when it comes to sustainability, recycling, and the future we leave for future generations. Therefore, it's of utmost importance to minimize the impact our daily actions have on the ecosystem, such as:
- Use natural and environmentally friendly products.
- Be more aware of the importance of recycling and caring for our environment.
- Selection of textiles more environmentally friendly, such as those of bamboo .
This trend is moving very quickly and has undoubtedly already affected the tourism sector. People travel, and in addition to enjoying their vacations, they also seek to reduce the carbon footprint they leave in the different places they visit… so why not help them achieve this during their stay and, in the process, contribute to that reduction?
