Kimpton Hotels & Restaurants Practice What They Preach
It seems to take a bold attitude for a hotel to take an environmental stance by addressing the environmental issues that face our world, and especially the hospitality industry, today. Kimpton hotels and restaurants has done just that. This isn't the only, or first, hotel chain to reduce environmental pollution, but it's making a lot of noise about it. That kind of environmental education for the public, and to other hoteliers and restaurateurs, is important.
The Kimpton family of hotels and restaurants has adopted an environmental philosophy. This is just one more bit of evidence to show that environmentally friendly doesn't have to mean bare-bones travel -- it can mean first class travel.
There is a short list of actions they have taken that anyone can mimic found at ECOnomically Sound's post, One Hotel Chain's Environmental Philosophy in Action.
What comments and reactions do you have? Any ideas you are going to adopt or create after seeing what they have done?
