Seaport Boston is an Eco Friendly AND Green Hotel
We are proud to provide our guests a green hotel stay
Seaport Saves is a groundbreaking environmental program dedicated to increasing sustainability and conservation throughout all aspects of the organization. We encourage our guests, team members and vendors to embrace and practice an environmentally-sensitive lifestyle. It is possible to coexist in a delicate balance with the natural world while providing world-class service in a luxurious setting.
Our latest green hotel achievements:
New Charging Station and Complimentary Valet Parking for Eco-Friendly Cars
Seaport now offers overnight guests who arrive in hybrid or electric vehicles access to a complimentary charging station and a complimentary night of valet parking through the end of 2010. The charging station will be the first available at a Boston hotel, yet another eco-friendly first for the hotel.
Green Key Rated
Seaport received a 4 out of 5 rating from the Green Key/AAA Eco-Rating Program. Seaport is proud to be one of 3 U.S. hotels to participate in the U.S. pilot program.
Cleaning Green at the Seaport Hotel
Seaport uses cleaning fluids produced by an Electrolyzed water system. This system combines tap water with a saline mix that has both a positive and a negative electrical charge to create a powerful and natural cleaning agent. Cleaning green is a top priority for the Seaport Hotel.
Ozone Laundry System
Seaport recently installed the Ozone System which uses high voltage electricity to split oxygen atoms (O2) into a highly unstable grouping of 3 oxygen atoms called “ozone gas”. This man-made chemical transformation happens in nature, and helps our environmentally friendly hotel by reducing the amount of detergent needed for laundry.
Seaport Yearly Recycle Rate of 44 Percent, 201 Tons of Material
In partnership with Capital Paper, a division of Mass Hauling, the Seaport Hotel recycles white paper, newspaper, plastic, glass, aluminum, and cardboard. Guests are encouraged to use our in-room recycling program.
Renewable Energy Credits
In 2009, Seaport purchased enough renewable energy credits to offset the electricity used to power all 426 of our guest rooms, 13 guest floors and operation of our 4 guest elevators for the entire year.
