eco friendly hotel - green key label

The Hotel des Marronniers, a charming eco friendly hotel in the heart of Paris

 
We are delighted to welcome you to our little green bower in the heart of Paris. Our two beautiful and large chestnut trees as well as our plants and shrubs remind us every day how important it is to preserve our environment. Thus, it was obvious for the Hotel des Marronniers and its secret garden to become environmentally friendly.
 
In order to make our commitment more concrete, we obtained theGreen Key” label, the first sustainable tourism label in the world for tourist accommodations.
 
In this sense, we have made water and energy consumption our priority:
  • Water resources management: Installation of flow limiters
  • Energy resources management: Low consumption light bulbs / presence detector / timer / intelligent air conditioning management software 
  • Sensitization of our guests and staff to the use of air conditioning, heating…
But not only …
  • Our teams are trained to respect the daily ecological gestures.
  • We choose our service providers and suppliers according to their sustainable and social commitments.
  • The sorting of waste which is set up in the rooms also contributes to our ecological approach. Thus, our waste is entirely sorted.
  • Ozonated water is used for cleaning, which offers better air quality and fewer health risks.
  • The care products put in the rooms have been reviewed to save plastic and to be recyclable. They are fully eco-certified.
  • Of course, we use organic products, short supply chains and seasonal products for breakfast.
  • In order to limit waste, we work in partnership with a leshotelssolidaires.com to redistribute pastries not consumed at breakfast.
  • Since January 2024, we also compensate our website’s CO2 consumption with the Net Zero Website Label.

Finally, how could we make this change without thinking about taking care of our garden? We maintain it without pesticides and use alternative methods to control weeds and insects. Each new planting is eco-responsible, local and in accordance with our garden and the values of our eco friendly hotel. 

Our goals: 

  • Analyze our energy consumption in order to continue our efforts in our environmental involvement
  • Calculate our carbon footprint
 

Let’s work together in our eco friendly hotel

 
Moreover, we would like to enlist your help in achieving our aims.
 
 
Let’s protect our water resources
We will change your towels when needed: please leave in the bathtub or on the ground the ones to be changed.
We limit the linen change (every 3 days) in order to reduce the impact of harmful products for the environment, and we propose you not to change linen and even not to clean the room. Just contact reception desk.
Make sure taps are switched off when brushing teeth in order not to run water unnecessarily. A 5 minutes shower consumes 40 to 50 liters of water, each additional minute consumes 10 liters more.
Be careful about what you throw into the toilets, wastebaskets are available in all bathrooms. Cigarette butts or sanitary towels for example distort the smooth running of water-treatment plants
Please call the staff if there is any water leak or dysfunction.
 
Energy is our future, let’s save it!
 
In your room, have the right reflexes:
  • Use heating and air conditioning sparingly: it’s better for your health
  • Our intelligent air conditioning management software helps us to control air conditioning consumption. In your room, you can choose temperature between 22°C and 26°C (21° in case of high temperature outside).
  • If you open the window, do not forget to turn off the heating or air conditioning
  • Please turn off lights when leaving your room

Let’s reduce our waste quickly: it’s overflowing!
Whenever possible and in compliance with the rules of hygiene, we limit as much as possible disposable products and overpacks
We sort the waste. You can help us by depositing:

  • your non-recyclable waste in the green bin in your basket,
  • your used batteries at the reception desk.
