Committed to Sustainability
At Hotel Jazz, we’re committed not just to the well-being of our guests and visitors, but also to that of the planet as a whole. Each and every day, we strive to minimize our impact on the environment by embracing energy efficiency and offering services that conserve natural resources.
We’ve earned the Biosphere Sustainable Lifestyle certification, showcasing our commitment to Biosphere Sustainable Tourism, supported by Barcelona Tourism, the Chamber of Commerce, and the Barcelona City Hall. We’re also part of Barcelona + Sustainable, a network of over 1,000 organizations committed to environmental, social, and economic sustainability that collectively work to enhance the city’s respect for its inhabitants and its environment. This commitment is aligned with the 17 Sustainable Development Goals and the Paris Agreement on Climate Change, through the World Charter for Sustainable Tourism +20.
Hotel Jazz has also earned the SAFE TRAVEL seal, the first global certification for health and safety in the hospitality industry, awarded by the World Travel & Tourism Council (WTTC), safeguarding the health and security of all our guests.
To reduce our environmental impact and conserve energy, we embrace a no paper philosophy, so we relay all necessary information to our guests via the in-room Smart TV. We also encourage our guests to use resources responsibly and offer an opt-in towel change service. To promote the equitable use of resources, we have installed soap dispensers in all bathrooms.
Recently, the Hotel Jazz joined the program for Energy Efficiency and Circular Economy Projects in Tourism Companies, within the framework of the Recovery, Transformation and Resilience Plan (C14.14I2) funded by the European Union – Next Generation EU, with the support of the General Tourism Directorate of the Department of Business of the Catalan Government. With this grant (which amounts to €319,197.02), we have completed a minor overhaul to replace the heating, air conditioning and hot water equipment, which has led to improved energy efficiency (changing our grading from C to B).
We believe that the difference lies in the details, and we distribute sustainable pens to guests upon request.
We believe that each step towards sustainability counts. And we invite our guests and visitors to recognize the importance of their efforts towards protecting the environment and safeguarding the health of the planet, during their time at Hotel Jazz and beyond.
