An Industry First, Estilo Groups – Green Rooms
Estilo’s implementation of GREEN ROOMS concept is built around the premise that some guests are willing to go that little bit further in helping the environment.
To increase the guest experience they can choose to go green with an auto pre-set and locked air-conditioning temperatures, set shower water times (with alarm & auto cut-off) , pre-set light settings at 75% of full power settings. All natural / sustainable fill pillows and duvets, reduced guest amenities and use of bio degradable & sustainable amenities such as conditioner, shampoos & soaps.
Additionally linen will be changed every other day and we will use $3 from every green room booking to plant trees.
