Footprint
With 5 Green Star Design and Build ratings from the NZ Green Building Council, The Hotel Britomart has sustainability built in from the ground up.
Almost 80% of construction waste was re-used or recycled and the hotel’s operations result in 50% fewer greenhouse gas emissions than required by building code. Materials in the hotel, such as bedsheets and towels, are made from organic cotton or recycled plastic, while bathroom products are locally made. There’s also been an effort to support artists and artisans with crafts, ceramics and paintings throughout the hotel celebrating local culture.
