Yes, we recycle!
Pollution has become a serious problem in Hanoi and we want to do our part to help clean up the city. Among the local community, a move toward greener businesses practices has taken off. We're proud to say that we work to participate as fully as possible in this movement, including a recycling program at our hotel. Our tours and travel services also promote green methods and approaches. It's a slow process, but progress is being made!
Guests can separate cans, bottles, newspapers, cardboard, glass, and other plastics and papers into a separate bag just as you would do at home, but it's really not necessary. Our staff will separate all trash and pull out anything that can be recycled. It's a little-advertised service, but after many inquiries, we wanted to let our former and future guests know that our hotel does have a recycling program.
We also ask guests to turn off all power and appliances before leaving the room. We try to conserve power not only to save money, but also to help preserve Vietnam's fragile environment. Even small things like turning off the tv or ac when you leave the room can help a great deal.
Thanks for doing your part to conserve energy and recycle while in Vietnam! For more information on local efforts to improve the environment, see http://www.vsccan.org/vgbc/
