Hotel Zephyr realizes that the world is a small place in which we all inhabit. We strive to help make a difference in our community and to the overall environment.
The following sustainability efforts help us reduce our negative impact on our environment.
green office
Hotel Zephyr is doing its part in preserving the environment by consuming less resources and avoiding toxic waste, i.e. keeping digital files on computers and mobile devices, not file cabinets and reviewing digital documents on-screen, rather than printing them out.
