What people say about The Sustainable Hotel

“

"Sustainability" was not tangible for me - it was always distant, and I didn't know how to efficiently implement sustainability into my hotel. The Sustainable Hotel opened up a new world for me, and with each handbook, I understood more about what I can successfully implement step-by-step and what truly makes a difference. Because it's of no use to talk about Mount Everest if you can't manage to climb the first hill.

The Sustainable Hotel Handbooks are very user-friendly and therefore perfect for entrepreneurs looking to facilitate their entry into sustainable tourism development. I view it as a well-structured, comprehensive, and visually-appealing guide.

The many practical tips and scorecards can be implemented in both urban and resort hotels, and they reflect a fundamental mindset every hotelier should adopt.

What I particularly appreciated was the way the content was presented. The diversity of formats, including checklists, interviews, and success stories, made the content very accessible and engaging.

Hotel sustainability, redefined

Hotel sustainability is often discussed in abstract terms. At The Sustainable Hotel, we define it as a practical, operational topic, embedded in everyday hotel decisions.

What is a sustainable hotel?

A sustainable hotel is a hotel that strives to promote sustainable development through its business practices. While many use it interchangeably with the term “green hotel,” a sustainable hotel takes on a more holistic approach to sustainability – addressing its three core pillars: social sustainability (People), environmental sustainability (Planet) and economic sustainability (Profit).
