Sustainability Tips:

•Drink clean tap water. The water in Jyväskylä is clean and good. Glasses are available in the rooms, and in restaurants, water is served in jugs at the tables.

•Favor local food in restaurants and at breakfast. Even though the buffet is full of delicacies, start with a smaller portion on your plate and take more if you still have room.

•Give and experience gifts. Instead of traditional material gifts, prefer gift cards, restaurant dinners, and pampering weekends.

•Travel by bike, on foot, or use public transportation. Explore Jyväskylä’s urban culture, enjoy live music, and support local shops and boutiques. There are several flea markets in the city.

•Hike in nearby destinations. Local travel is now in, and our city has wonderful hiking destinations both near and far. The hotel reception has a folder with tips on the best nearby destinations.

•Drive an electric car. There are electric car charging stations in the backyard of our hotel.

•By choosing a Green Key certified hotel, you are promoting responsible and sustainable tourism. Thank you for caring!

How you can make a difference during your visit:

•Turn off the shower when applying shampoo or soap.

•Leave the towel on the rack and reuse it.

•Turn off unnecessary lights or remove the light card when leaving the room.

•Choose local, organic, and plant-based products for breakfast and lunch.

•Eat everything you take.

•Utilize ResQ Club’s surplus products.

•Sort waste in the room. The cleaning staff will sort the bottles, papers, and glasses you leave on the table.

•Use the stairs instead of the elevators.

Better choices are always welcome!
