Abstract
The primary goal of luxury hotels is to give their visitors the best possible service in the most comfortable environment. Reaching the necessary high standards in, for example, heating, cooling, lighting, ventilation, cleaning, and laundry means that they have very high levels of energy and water use. The hospitality sector has historically had a dramatic environmental impact through energy and water consumption, use of consumable and durable goods, and solid and hazardous waste creation.
