Not only have we taken care of the basics such as recycling of waste and reusing linens, but we have a solar farm which produces 20% of the energy needed for our hotel. We use very little water and have installed low water landscaping. Our cleaning products have been switched to earth friendly brands. We are proud to be a green hotel and encourage staff and guests to do their part as well. |
