Our Environment - Green Tourism

We recognise the fact that the nature of our services results in an overall impact on the environment and that by conducting our business in a responsible and thoughtful manner; we can reduce this impact and act to improve the quality of the environment where appropriate.

We are currently working towards implementing further environmental measures to try and reduce The Gresham Hotel's 'Carbon Footprint'.

Some of the measures which we take in the hotel include:

• Recycling as much glass, plastic, paper, cardboard and cans as possible, including all the newspapers left behind in the bedrooms.
• We segregate organic waste from our kitchens, and send this to be composted.
• Fitting all the standard lamps in the bedrooms and many more lights throughout the hotel with low energy bulbs to reduce our energy consumption.
• Water saving devices are fitted in the toilet cisterns and urinals which help to save water in our hotel.

There are many more measures in place in the hotel and our committed 'Green Team' meets every month to discuss new ideas for expanding our efforts further.
