Everything you need to know about sustainability in hospitality.
Hotels in Ireland and the UK are focusing on energy efficiency, reducing single-use plastics, and adopting renewable energy sources. Many are also investing in smart building technology and greener supply chains to meet guest expectations and regulatory standards.
Sustainability isn’t just good for the planet; it reduces costs too. Energy-efficient lighting, water-saving fixtures, and smarter maintenance practices often lower utility bills and extend asset life, leading to long-term financial savings for hotels.
Simple steps like switching to LED lighting, using refillable bathroom amenities, and digitising paper-heavy processes can make a noticeable difference. These changes require little investment but quickly improve efficiency and reduce waste.
Guests are more likely to support eco-friendly hotels when they feel involved. Encouraging towel reuse, offering visible recycling options, and clearly communicating sustainability efforts helps build trust, improve satisfaction, and strengthen brand reputation.
Yes - certifications like Green Key or LEED signal credibility and commitment to sustainability. They not only help attract eco-conscious travellers but also provide frameworks that guide hotels toward measurable, long-term environmental improvements.
In today’s AI-driven landscape, certifications are becoming even more important for hotel discovery. Booking platforms and search engines increasingly rely on structured data and verified credentials when recommending properties. Hotels with recognized sustainability certifications are more likely to be highlighted in search results, voice assistants, and AI-powered travel planners, making these badges not just a mark of responsibility, but also a competitive advantage in visibility.
