Green hotels for business travellers

/in , , /by

Worldhotels are focusing increasingly on sustainability. Which locations offer green hotel rooms and meeting facilities.

The “green wave” has long since broken over the hotel industry. With efforts to reduce carbon footprints and minimise use of resources extending beyond people’s home environments. Global hotel group Worldhotels has numerous destinations in its portfolio that put sustainability and protecting the environment centre stage:

  • Airport Hotel Basel: One of just a handful of carbon neutral hotels in the world. Heated by steam from a local recycling centre.
  • Hotel Le Plaza Brussels in Belgium: On top of keeping water and energy use to a minimum, this green hotel separates all of its rubbish and encourages its guests to take public transport.
  • Atlantic Congress Hotel in Essen: The use of heat recovery fuelled air-con systems, energy-saving light bulbs, motion sensors and timers is all part of the appeal at this award-winning green hotel.
  • Royal Park Hotel, Rochester, USA: A partnership with Clean the World supports people who are unable to afford basic hygiene products. Soaps and shampoos that have been started by other guests are donated. All of the toiletries are 100% natural or certified organic.
