Responsibility in day-to-day hotel operations
At the Louis C. Jacob, we are implementing specific measures in various areas of hotel operations – including energy, water, waste, procurement and food management. On this page, we outline the measures we are currently implementing and the areas in which they are being applied.
At Louis C. Jacob, tradition and innovation go hand in hand. This includes regularly reviewing and refining our operational procedures. Louis C. Jacob is certified to the GreenSign Hotel Standard. During the certification process, the hotel’s information and supporting documentation are examined and verified during an on-site audit. Once the audit has been completed and VERIS Certifications has issued a positive certification decision, a GreenSign certificate is awarded to the hotel in question.
The certificate confirms that the establishment meets the relevant requirements of the respective GreenSign Hotel Standard for certification. The certification applies to the hotel establishment named in the certificate, as well as to the version of the standard and the period of validity specified therein.
Electricity from renewable energy sources
EHA Energie-Handels-Gesellschaft has provided site-specific certification for the Louis C. Jacob’s electricity supply, confirming that it is sourced from EHA Grünstrom Premium, which is generated from 100 per cent renewable energy sources.
