BIO HOTELS
 |
The association of BIO HOTELS uses 100% organic food and beverages under strict conditions and uses exclusively certified organic cosmetics.
Sustainable management, regional purchasing and environmentally friendly energy and waste circuits are mandatory for all BIO HOTELS. BIO HOTELS already started to evaluate the carbon footprint in 2010 and are now at an average value of 7.5 kg per guest and overnight stay. The continuous improvement of the carbon footprint is their declared common goal.
Every BIO HOTEL is obliged to carry out a CO2 balance sheet every two years. (2022 carried out in collaboration with https://www.fokus-zukunft.com/leistungen/klimastrategie/ )
