Earth-friendly, Community-friendly, and People-friendly hotel

We are deeply committed to minimizing the impact our operations have on the world around us. Our commitments are underpinned by our 3 sustainability goals and 6 sustainable themes which closely align with the global SDGs (Sustainable Development Goals).

 

Earth-Friendly Hotel

We are committed to reducing our impact on the planet for future generations by implementing low-carbon practices, Green Coin Program, water stewardship, and food waste reduction and recycling.

 

Community-Friendly Hotel

As stewards of the destinations in which we operate, we are contributing to community growth by participating in local festivals and events. When disasters strike in communities we operate in, we welcome those affected to recover and rebuild as well as striving to open for business as soon as possible.

 

People-Friendly Hotel

In order to provide warm hospitality, we continue to enhance our universal room and vegetarian menu offerings, while creating a comfortable workplace which cultivates the hotel's best asset, our people.

Our Contribution to the Reduction of Social and Environmental Impact

 

Joins the Sustainable Restaurant Association in Japan

From May 2022, all day dining ‘ORIGAMI’ ,from April 2023 Japanese Restaurant "Suiren",Chinese Restaurant "Star Hill",has been effectively working towards achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) set up in 2015 by the United Nations. Focussing on three key perspectives - procurement, environment and society, we are pursuing sustainability through the hotel’s food offering, developing menus that include plant-based food as well as locally produced and seasonal ingredients.

 

Green Coin Program (participated by Tokyu Hotels)

Return a Green Coin to the Front Desk for every unused amenity during your stay to support environmental conservation. The equivalent of the total number of coins collected during the year will be donated to the Children's Forest Program and the Community Revitalization Project in Tabayama Village through OISCA, a public interest incorporated foundation.

 

Green Card Program

Multiple-night guests can leave a Green Card on their bed requesting not to change linens (sheets, duvet cover and pillowcases) and towels (bath towel, face towel, hand towel and bath mat) daily or opt for eco-cleaning. If guests leave towels in the bathtub or on the floor, we will replace it.

 

Wood Straws

Effective April 1, 2019, we have discontinued the use of plastic straws in all restaurants and bars at the hotel. Wood straws or biodegradable straws are offered to guests upon request. The use of thinned wood helps forest conservation to prevent landslides and flooding, and revitalize sustainable forest management.

 

Eco-friendly Takeaway cutlery

Cutlery, such as the spoons and forks which are provided with take-out meals from our restaurants at the hotel are made from wood or bioplastics made from renewable resources, to reduce our reliance on single use plastics in waste and reduce our overall CO2 emissions.

 

Use biomass as raw materials derived from wheat CO2 emission reduction, plastic usage reduction, amenities.

With the following products, biomass raw materials made from wheat are used, polypropylene is reduced, and no CO2 is generated during combustion, thereby addressing global warming.
Cap for showering (contains cornstarch)
Use of leather (50% reduction in plastic)

 

Deluxe Type / Premier Type Amenities Rapidem.

Bath amenities are sourced from Lapidem, a wellness skin care brand born in Akasaka, Tokyo.By May 2023, we will switch to refilled dispenser-type amenities, use biomass plastic containers to reduce CO2 emissions, and introduce a recycling system that leads to the recycling of raw materials even for damaged bottles.198 deluxe and premier rooms have been outfitted with this to reduce plastic usage by 80%.

 

Housekeeping Card

Since January 2020, "Make-Up Room Plates" made from thinned wood, have been created and placed in all guest rooms. The use of thinned wood helps forest conservation to prevent landslides and flooding, and revitalize sustainable forest management.

 

Paper Water Bottles

We now supply water in paper bottles for guests using the banquet room. HAVARY’S NATURAL WATER is certified by global MGO, the Forest Stewardship Council® and uses 100% recycled materials as well as contributing to a 40% reduction in global warming. A donation of 1 Japanese Yen per bottle is also made to environmental protection initiatives.

 

Amenity Packaging

Since spring of 2019, we have taken steps to replace the packaging of in-room amenities from plastic to paper boxes. Paper packaging is used as a substitute for plastic containers in the face of increasing environmental pollution.

 

Espresso Recycling Network

Nespresso coffee makers are equipped in all guest rooms. The hotel participates in Nespresso's aluminum capsule recycling campaign which recycles the capsules as well as maximizing reuse of product materials.

 

Hotel's Original Insulated Tote Bag

The hotel's original insulated bag, available for purchase since January 2021, is made of recycled PET polyester fabric. Using recycled plastic bottles, the production of recycled fabric reduces the dependence on petroleum, which is typically used as a raw material for polyester, as well as water, chemicals, energy, and carbon dioxide emissions required for production.

 

Hotel's Original Chopsticks

The hotel's original chopsticks made from thinned wood are available for purchase. The use of thinned wood helps forest conservation to prevent landslides and flooding, and revitalize sustainable forest management.
