Recycled grey water is used to irrigate the resort's landscaped gardens, reducing consumption by 50 percent, and wastage is minimised thanks to a water-efficient bathroom, laundry and kitchen appliances. Some chains also ask guests to consider opting out of housekeeping often in exchange for an incentive.Īt Soori Bali on the southern coast of the island of Bali, Indonesia, water conservation is at the centre of its sustainability policy. Most chains and major hotels ask guests staying multiple nights to consider not having their sheets and linens changed every day. This can be used to irrigate lawns and gardens, as can the collection of rainwater in storage tanks, ponds or reservoirs.Īnother thing to check is whether there's a towel and sheets reuse policy. Other ways to conserve water resources is by recycling the grey water from sinks, showers, bathtubs and washing machines. For example, are bathrooms fitted with low-consumption toilets and low-flow showers and taps to reduce consumption as much as possible? It's worth asking a few questions about water-saving practices before making your next hotel booking. Water conservation is increasingly becoming standard in hotels around the world, especially in regions where rainfall is scarce or insufficient.
