Environmental Policy and Philosophy
We are passionate about ensuring we are environmentally responsible. We are working on reducing waste and energy consumption, reuse items where possible and to encourage recycling. We monitor and record our environmental impact to evaluate and improve our efforts and meet our goals.

Towel & Linen replacement: We provide new ones every third day as standard. On demand towel and linen replacement is available free of charge.
