Every action matters, and we are proud to contribute to more sustainable tourism in our region.
Minimize water use
For longer stays, we encourage our guests to make sheet and towel changes an option rather than an automatic service. With clearly identified signage, they can make this eco-responsible choice.
No single-use soap
We offer high-quality soaps in dispensers, unlike many other hotels in our region. This choice avoids thousands of plastic containers for single-use products.
Reduced paper use
Our housekeeping team works with digital technology on mobile devices. Guests can also receive their invoice electronically only, significantly reducing our ecological footprint.
Removal of water bottles
Since this major decision, our hotel has helped the environment by removing the water bottles previously offered at departure and in rooms. A simple but meaningful step to reduce plastic waste.
No wallpaper in rooms
Wallpaper is made from PVC or vinyl. Our hotel made the ecological decision not to use wallpaper in our rooms, reducing plastic use in our boutique hotel.
Eco-responsible products
All laundry and cleaning products used in our property are eco-responsible. We choose suppliers who share our environmental values for every product used daily.
Crushed-stone parking
Our parking area is covered with crushed stone for environmental reasons. Asphalt parking lots are associated with public health concerns and are considered environmental nuisances, which is why we made this ecological choice.
Electric mobility
Electric vehicle charging stations are available on site, encouraging greener mobility for our guests. We believe hospitality infrastructure should support the energy transition.
Eco-responsible hotel
Each room is equipped with a fully independent air-conditioning system. This means there is no air circulation between rooms, for your health, comfort and to reduce our overall energy consumption.
Regional roots
Local purchasing
We make every effort to ensure our purchases and partners are local. Supporting the economy of Rimouski and the region is a natural and fundamental commitment for us.
