Search Green Hotels in Newcastle-upon-Tyne

Whether for business or pleasure, travellers are increasingly concerned about the impact their journeys are having on the environment; whether that's the carbon footprint their car leaves, or the energy consumption of their selected accommodation. One way to ensure your trip is kinder to the environment is to choose a green, sustainable hotel in Newcastle-upon-Tyne when booking your journey to the North East.

What Makes a Sustainable or Green Hotel so Special?

Sustainable hotels in Newcastle-upon-Tyne are awarded that title because they have worked hard to obtain outstanding green credentials. This usually means they have been awarded a certificate by Green Tourism and can cover a range of practices within the hotels themselves. This can include only using produce from ethical and sustainable sources, keeping energy consumption levels to an absolute minimum without compromising the comfort of guests. This is done by using renewable energy sources such as solar energy, and recycling as much waste as possible.

If you're concerned that the practices used by green hotels in Newcastle will impact on your stay, don't worry - your comfort is always paramount. For example, some hotels use energy efficient laundry practices by not washing towels every single day. However, guests can ask them to launder towels more often if they feel they need it. Double and triple glazed windows and thermostatic controls on radiators will conserve energy, helping to make your room that bit more comfortable. This gives you the best of both worlds as a guest - a guilt-free stay in fabulous accommodation!
