The new Hilton Garden Inn on the remote Faroe Islands feels almost otherworldly. The entire property was built with sustainability at its core, embracing the archipelago s own sustainable tourism strategy.
The hotel s commitment to sustainability starts from the top: the roof is covered in grass, allowing for ultra-efficient insulation and a building that seamlessly blends into the local environment.
Inside, ultra-efficient heating systems help keep guests warm and take into account occupancy levels to avoid heating unused spaces. Motion sensors on water taps and LED lighting further prevent energy waste and the hotel is powered by renewable energy from a local power plant.
