Three pillars of sustainable tourism that
are at the heart of Beyond Green:

Environmentally-Friendly Practices

The focus of this pillar is on the “green operations” of a sustainable property - reduce, reuse, recycle. It includes all the best practices to reduce energy, water, waste, and carbon impact. Some of our practices are: toiletries made with 100% recycled products; restaurant menus featuring biological agriculture products; a partnership with Too Good To Go and Banco Alimentare, active with Fedegroup - company partner that manages the dining - to reduce food waste; charging stations for e-vehicles, electric bike/scooters for our guests, and much more.

Protection of Natural and Cultural Heritage

All Beyond Green members are engaged in programs, policies, and initiatives to support cultural heritage. Some examples of Natural Heritage initiatives including projects to improve the quality of life in Milan and a "compensation system" for our clients and their events in the green meeting rooms. Regarding Cultural Heritage, Starhotels E.c.ho. besides, reflecting the typical Milanese reputation for fashion and design, supports the local culture.

Social and Economic Well-being of Local People

This includes a commitment to benefiting local people in the area or region where a property is based. Starhotels E.c.ho. is part of the board of Milano Centrale District, an association that aims to improve the image and quality of life of the Central Station area, the main door to Milan. All our actions focus on social activities and urban environment, want to ensure a pleasant atmosphere for all the residents, businesses, and tourists as well.
