Hotel Taking Steps Towards Sustainability

The Frenchgate Restaurant & Hotel, proudly holding an EU Ecolabel certification, offers a unique intersection of luxury and sustainability. Its commitment to eco-conscious practices is evident from the building itself, constructed using materials from sustainable resources. The architectural design facilitates air flow, significantly reducing the reliance on air-conditioning. Non-toxic cleaning products are a standard part of the cleaning regimen, a testament to the hotel's focus on minimizing environmental impact while ensuring a clean and healthy environment for guests.

The hotel's practices extend to its well-reputed restaurant, serving a selection of organic food prepared primarily from locally sourced ingredients. A vegetarian menu also features as an alternative, demonstrating a recognition of diverse dietary preferences. The energy-efficient LED lighting brightens the premises, while an environmental manager ensures all eco-friendly policies are consistently upheld. With its employees trained in following environmental protocols, the Frenchgate further demonstrates a top-to-bottom approach to sustainability.

The hotel also conserves water with toilets flushing up to just six litres per flush. In a remarkable commitment to energy conservation, a state-of-the-art system is in place to automatically switch off lights and electrical appliances once guests vacate their rooms. Moreover, an energy audit is performed every five years, reinforcing the hotel's pledge to continuous energy efficiency. Notably, the hotel and restaurant exclusively utilize electricity derived from renewable and non-fossil fuel sources, reinforcing their steadfast commitment to environmental sustainability.
