Our initiatives for more responsible tourism

Travelling allows you to discover new places, new cultures and new experiences.

Nowadays, many travellers also want to minimise the environmental impact of their holidays. At the Relais Madeleine, we share this commitment through a number of practical measures we implement on a daily basis.

A location that promotes sustainable transport

One of the key factors in more responsible tourism is the choice of location. Situated in the heart of Paris, the Relais Madeleine is within walking distance of numerous tourist attractions, shops and restaurants.

The immediate proximity to public transport also makes it easy to get around without needing to use a car.

Sustainable resource management

On a day-to-day basis, we take care to limit our water and energy consumption through various measures implemented at the hotel.

These initiatives are part of our commitment to continuous improvement, aimed at reducing our environmental impact whilst ensuring our guests’ comfort.

Carefully selected partners and suppliers

We attach particular importance to the products and services offered within the hotel.

Wherever possible, we prioritise partners who share our high standards and our commitment to supporting the local economy.

Raising awareness without imposing restrictions

A responsible stay need not be synonymous with restrictions.

We simply encourage actions that help minimise the environmental impact of your stay:

  • Using public transport
  • Opt for walking
  • Reuse towels when you wish
  • Minimise food waste

Every little bit helps when multiplied across thousands of travellers.

Discover Paris in a different way

Paris lends itself particularly well to a more sustainable way of exploring. Much of the city can be explored on foot, many neighbourhoods are accessible by metro, and most of the major tourist attractions are located close to one another.

At the Relais Madeleine, we’re convinced that it’s possible to combine comfort, exploration and care for the environment.

Because travelling differently often starts with small, everyday choices.

A business trip to Paris rarely leaves much free time. Between meetings, client appointments, events and travelling, the days fill up quickly. However, even with a busy schedule, it is possible to enjoy the capital without disrupting your plans.

When planning a trip to Paris, the choice of hotel often comes down to a few well-known factors: price, photos of the rooms, or the ratings left by previous guests.

These criteria are, of course, important. However, they are not always enough to guarantee a successful stay.

For a long time, grand hotels epitomised the Parisian holiday experience. More rooms, more services, more facilities. However, travellers’ expectations have changed.
