Sustainability
Service and quality while respecting the environment
The Hotel Royal Santina is a 4-star hotel in the centre of Rome committed to implementing numerous green and environmentally friendly initiatives to offer its guests an eco-friendly stay in the heart of the Eternal City!
Stay for the Planet
The Best Western Premier Hotel Royal Santina joins the Stay For The Planet project, launched by BWH Hotels Italy and Malta in collaboration with LifeGate for responsible hospitality.
Stay for the Planet is a programme recognised by the Global Sustainable Tourism Council (GSTC), the organisation that sets and guides standards for sustainable development in travel and tourism globally.
The initiative is part of a strategy aimed at reducing the impact of the hotel sector by promoting a series of virtuous behaviours and implementing a system for monitoring and improving the environmental and social performance of hotels participating in the programme. Stay For The Planet is an important management and measurement tool supporting the hotel chain in its journey towards an increasingly responsible hospitality model.
The programme is based on a sustainability rating developed by the LifeGate scientific committee, which assigns a score from 1 to 5, expressed in leaves, reflecting the environmental and social performance of hotels in the following areas of impact.
Energy
Sources and consumption of electricity and heating, energy efficiency of the building and equipment.
Water
drinking water consumption (catering, rooms, services...) and water saving.
Waste
Waste production and types, waste disposal management and prevention actions.
PURCHASES
Procurement of raw materials, service materials and durable goods with less environmental impact.
BEHAVIOUR
Logistics organisation of suppliers, management of staff and customer mobility, guest awareness and linkage to sustainable initiatives in the area.
PEOPLE
Dedicated to virtuous practices implemented in hotels with respect to issues of staff development, accessibility and inclusiveness.
CHow we support the environment
Actively engage on the issue of sustainability and respect for the environment through the defense of animal species that are in danger of disappearing in the coming years. This is the choice of the Roscioli family, a hospitality landmark for more than 90 years, who adopted Kala, the little Sumatran tiger born in December 2023 in Rome’s Biopark.
A certified commitment
Best Western Premier Hotel Royal Santina is honored to announce that it has been awarded the Green Key certification, a prestigious award conferred by the Foundation for Environmental Education (FEE), which testifies to our commitment to more sustainable hospitality.
Achieving Green Key certification is the result of a journey of continuous improvement aimed at meeting strict standards in the areas of environmental management, energy efficiency, waste management, responsible use of water resources, nature conservation and promotion of sustainable practices.
We are proud to be part of this movement, believing that together with our guests and employees, we can actively contribute to the preservation of our precious land.
