Go green!

We like this little greeny-blue planet of ours. And because it's covered with a fair few Best Western Hotels (over 4,000!), we're in a perfect position to help make sure it doesn't turn all browny-grey.

Although you won't see us up trees or scaling power stations, we do everything we can to make sure our stunning locations stay that way. That's why we encourage member hotels to buy into something called the Green Tourism Business Scheme, take steps to use energy and water more efficiently, and find ways to waste it less.

Check out www.beacongreenhotel.com or www.green-business.co.uk for practical and relevant information to help you see the actions you could take, and the money you could save!

Going green is obviously good for the environment. But we've found that it's pretty good for business too! More private and public companies look for hotels with CSR policies, so we’re even more attractive to their bookers!

Saving the planet, and some money!

We can also advise on ways to save a bit of 'green' too! Best Western Premier Yew Lodge Hotel saved £26,000 last year on energy bills alone!
