Efficiencies Contribute to LEED Designation
The Kimpton® Hotels and Restaurant’s commitment to a sustainably minded guest experience doesn’t just include an in-room yoga mat and organic snacks and beverages. In fact, elements of the Kimpton EarthCare program, including more than 100 environmental practices and products implemented at all Kimpton hotels and restaurants in the U.S., have been in place since as early as the company’s inception in 1981.
Among a myriad of practices to reduce waste, minimize toxins, and conserve resources across all business functions, Kimpton maintains its own set of EarthCare green building guidelines, including employing energy-efficient lighting and HVAC systems. Additionally committed to maintaining substantive, meaningful goals for energy reduction, the company has also examined ways in which to elevate energy efficiency across its historic building properties.
