Our eco policies include
- Recycling stations throughout the hotel.
- Bolton Hotel consciously sources electricity from Meridian due to their commitment to sourcing renewable energy.
- All our public areas and refurbished rooms benefit from low energy lighting. All remaining room lights are replaced with LEDs.
- Guests are encouraged to decline to have their linen and towels changed daily.
- The hotel is proudly plastic straw free, cooking oils are recycled through Flower Power and organic waste is composted.
- Ensuring empty rooms are not cooled or heated unnecessarily, our air-conditioning is electronically controlled and linked to guest check-in and check-out times, while Hush glass windows and thermal blackout blinds maintain room temperatures.
- Water-saving toilets.
- We are continually re-investing in our technology to finesse our paperless check-in.
