ECO-HOTELS: This is the future of hospitality.

In a world where concern for the environment and social responsibility are constantly growing, the hotel industry is adapting to become an agent of positive change. ECO-HOTELS, also known as Eco Friendly or sustainable hotels, are leading this movement towards a greener and more responsible future.

But what makes a hotel Eco-Friendly and what are the advantages of embracing this trend?

“Eco-hotels stand out for their sustainable practices such as the adoption of renewable energy, efficient management of natural resources, minimization of waste and respect for the local environment”

Main advantages of ECO-HOTELS.

Reduction of environmental impact:

Thanks to the incorporation of efficient air conditioning systems. With the use of heat pumps, we can generate heat using renewable sources such as ambient heat and solar energy. This practice allows us to significantly reduce our carbon footprint, thus contributing to the preservation of the environment.

Attracting environmentally conscious customers:

More and more travelers are looking for accommodation options that respect the environment. By adopting sustainable practices, hotels can appeal to this growing market segment that values sustainability.

Savings in operating costs

Ecological hotels reduce their operating costs by implementing measures to reduce water and energy consumption, such as the adoption of solar panels and heat pumps for Domestic Hot Water, which benefits the planet and reduces expenses in the medium term.

Subsidies and tax benefits thanks to environmental certifications

Green hotels can obtain certifications that support their Social and Environmental Responsibility practices, which provides them with economic benefits, such as obtaining subsidies. Some of these certificates are: Travel Life, Energy Savings Certificates (CAE), Bioscore sustainability certificate, Biosphere Tourism or the Green Key label.

Transforming hotels into ECO-HOTELS is not only beneficial for the environment, but can also improve your brand reputation and attract a growing market of Eco-Conscious tourists.

How to become an ECO-HOTEL?

Sustainable hospitality involves integrating green practices into all aspects of the sector’s operations.

Efficient resource management: Investments in efficient resource management systems for water, energy and waste are needed to monitor and control consumption and optimize efficiency. Applying the 4R rule: REDUCE, RECOVER, REUSE and RECYCLE. Such as, for example: water recycling systems, biodegradable products and the promotion of Eco-Friendly activities..

Km Zero: Prioritize suppliers that also follow sustainable practices and buy local products to reduce the carbon footprint associated with transportation. For example: rooms furnished with local materials, offering guests unique experiences connected to the region.

Energy efficiency: Implement solutions that reduce energy consumption and take advantage of natural resources; technologies such as heat pumps for air conditioning and DHW, or photovoltaic panels for electricity generation, which are achieved thanks to the use of renewable energies such as solar or aerothermal energy.
