The insect hotel & the beehives

An insect hotel has been built in the garden, along with 6 rooftop beehives which in 2017 produced 198 kg of a delicious honey. More recently, in 2022, we harvested 60 kg of honey. The honeys harvested during the year 2022 received 2 gold medals for the categories "Liquid Spring" and "Liquid Summer" during the Ile-de-France honey competition.

Waste management

Our goal is to minimize our production of waste. For the remaining waste, we work with an external company which is permanently on site in order to improve the sorting and recycling. Each garbage bag is opened, to separate the different types of waste. They are then recovered, weighed and revalued.

Earth Hour

Each year, during the Earth Hour, more than 1000 candles are lit to light the hotel's lobby and restaurants, thanks to the support of CIR company. The facade is also off. Also, 95% of the Bristol’s lighting is LED.

Charging station

Le Bristol Paris equipped its parking with charging stations for electric vehicles: Porsche, Tesla, BMW and an universal one.

Carbon footprint

Since 2017, each year the hotel has conducted a carbon footprint to assess its status. It was thus possible to identify the most emitting sources of greenhouse gaz, and to implement methods for reducing these emissions.

Green energy

Le Bristol Paris recently changed its electricity supplier and contracted a renewable energy one.
New and more efficient cold unites have been installed to significantly reduce water and electricity consumption.
All our classic bulbs have been replaced by LED.

Social responsibility

Since the beginning of our collaboration, more than one ton of soap has been collected and recycled. This year, more than 200 kg of soaps have been recycled.

We offer our customer the possibility to donate clothes to a charity. We collaborate with the AIDES association - Member of the International Aids Coalition - which organizes two sales per year in the aim of selling the collected clothes and donating the profits to the fight against AIDS.
