Caring for Our Environment
Living Green is Clayton Hotels & Partners environmental movement that inspires care for our environment as a “Way of Life” throughout our hotels, for both our people and our guests.
Our Environmental Culture
Here at Clayton Hotel Charlemont, we have a passion for the local and wider environment. we are currently in the process of introducing new and innovative environmentally-friendly changes so we can play our role in protecting the world around us.
We have already implemented some changes and do not intend to stop there. Our team is on board and will be fully trained on all our environmental policies.
Key Initiatives
We fully encourage our moment makers to avail of the bike to work scheme & provide safe lockup areas for them.
In all departments of the hotel, we are looking at ways to reduce waste, by using single-use items, talking with our suppliers about minimising packaging, we will also be working on reducing food miles by sourcing from local suppliers.
We aim to recycle all we can and reduce water waste by lowering flow rates in taps and showers and even rainwater harvesting to look after plants and upcoming herb and flower gardens.
As a new hotel, we are up to date with the latest tech in low energy LED lighting, but we still look for ways to reduce unnecessary usage, with timers in public corridors being monitored to make sure they are not on longer than needed but with no impact to our guests.
Below are just some of the ways we are trying to make a difference!
Herbs and Flower Garden
Being located in Dublin city centre we feel it is important to provide even a small place for wildlife to feel at home. With this in mind, we are creating a pollinator friendly eco garden full of herbs and flowers.
Water Conservation
We are consistently looking at ways to reduce water wastage through education and training. One of our projects is to introduce rainwater harvesting to keep our eco garden in bloom.
Community Involvement
Clayton Hotel Charlemont supports the local canal clean-up, where once a month our Moment Makers volunteer their time to keep the Grand Canal clean, tidy and safe for all to enjoy.
The Future
At Clayton Hotel Charlemont, we are committed to continuing our efforts in reducing our environmental impact. If you have any recommendations or would like to know more please contact us.
