Sustainable lodging
At Hof van Aragon, we like to do our part for a better planet. So we strive for a greener hotel world and are affiliated with Hotel for Trees , an amazing organization that plants a tree for every time our guests skip room cleaning.
Policy Statement
Both the management and all employees of Hof van Aragon take it upon themselves to manage the environmental burden on the one hand and also to reduce environmental risks on the other. A structural part of our business objectives is concern for the environment.
All hotel employees therefore undertake to perform their duties in accordance with the established procedures appropriate to our corporate policy. We comply with Flemish environmental laws and regulations, but also want to go a step further. This includes the following:
Court of Aragon records water and energy consumption. Based on this data, we can then continuously improve the infrastructure but also the policy as well as make it more economical. For example, all of our showers are now equipped with energy-saving heads while maintaining a comfortable feeling, all of our toilets have an adapted water regulation and we use rainwater recovery for watering our garden.
We are also committed to minimizing waste and reducing the impact on air, water and soil resulting from our business operations through an effective environmental management system. As part of this, we also train our employees to help take care of the environment.
Furthermore, we also try to sensitize our guests with, among other things, drawing their attention to towel consumption. For more concrete applications, please refer to our staff at the reception desk.
Therefore, in order to apply our policy consistently and throughout the hotel, Court of Aragon decided to introduce the required measures under the Green Key.
Hof van Aragon will communicate this environmental policy to our employees and to our guests.
