Nestled just moments from the iconic Arc de Triomphe, Hidden Hotel Paris has earned Green Globe certification for the third consecutive year. This boutique retreat, set apart from the bustling Parisian boulevards, offers a serene escape inspired by nature. Embracing sustainability at its core, the tranquil hideaway seamlessly incorporates eco-friendly principles throughout its operations.

Smart Energy and Water Conservation Upgrades

Throughout 2024, significant strides have been taken in enhancing energy and water conservation through forward-thinking resource management. The hotel now operates entirely on clean energy, thanks to a newly signed agreement for 100% renewable power. To further reduce consumption, motion detectors have been installed in shared spaces such as kitchens, meeting rooms, and storage areas, automatically adjusting lighting needs. Energy-saving LED lights and low-wattage bulbs have replaced older systems, while evenings are elegantly illuminated by candlelight in common areas. Routine tracking of energy and water usage each month helps identify areas for optimization, providing critical insights to drive efficiency and reduce waste.

Sustainable Practices Embedded in Everyday Operations

The past year has also brought a deeper integration of eco-conscious protocols into daily hotel functions. From paperless check-ins to digital housekeeping records, the hotel has gone fully digital to eliminate unnecessary paper usage. Menu access has shifted to QR codes, and operational apps have streamlined tasks while reducing environmental impact. A new irrigation system, designed to conserve water, now supports the hotel’s landscaping, using minimal resources to maintain lush greenery.

An all-encompassing waste reduction strategy is now fully implemented, with a strong recycling program active across the property. Materials such as glass, packaging, organic waste, and residual items are carefully sorted and recycled. The hotel also prioritizes rechargeable batteries and recycles electronic gadgets responsibly. All napkins and toilet paper are produced from eco-labeled, recycled materials. Even soap scraps, coffee residues, and wine corks are repurposed rather than discarded. Repurposed furnishings, like the charming vintage bookcase in the lobby, give a second life to well-crafted pieces.

Community Engagement and Green Awareness Campaigns

Hidden Hotel Paris continues to foster partnerships with organizations and businesses that share a passion for sustainable development. It proudly supports initiatives like Biodiversity for Peace and Sapocycle, the latter of which collects discarded soaps from hotels and transforms them into hygienic products for communities in need.

To further encourage eco-conscious travel behavior, the hotel has launched an “Eco-Responsible Hotel” feature on its concierge platform, LoungeUp. This digital hub offers guests insights into green practices, sustainable travel tips, and the hotel’s collaborations with environmentally driven partners. Communication efforts have also been expanded to engage both team members and guests in the hotel’s sustainability mission, creating a shared culture of environmental responsibility.
