HVS Eco Services offers insights on low-cost high-impact sustainability initiatives that hoteliers can implement in a down economy.
Finding investment capital to improve a hotel’s environmental performance is never an easy task, particularly during a period of declining revenues. I was recently asked by Western Real Estate Business to offer my perspective on how hoteliers can make progress toward achieving broader sustainability goals during a tough economy. These insights appear in a table at the end of the article which can be found here: http://snurl.com/thw01.
