For whom are the tours?

Our sustainability tours are suitable for:

  • Business groups who place sustainability high on their agenda

Whether you come for knowledge, inspiration or networking goals, we warmly welcome you in our circular hotel.

What can you expect?

During the tour our Technical Manager or General Manager will guide you through the unique sustainable systems of the hotel.

You will discover how the revolutionary Earth, Wind & Fire concept by Professor Ben Bronsema works in practice.

You will learn and see demonstrations of:

  • The climate cascade: a natural air-handling system using groundwater and mist
  • The solar chimneys, which provide natural ventilation
  • Heat recovery from showers
  • Our solar stones and façade panels that generate energy
  • The smart way in which we realise an optimal indoor climate without traditional air-conditioning or heating
  • The materials and furnishings: from recycled concrete in the rooms to a table made of Amsterdam canal-plastic, the same as in the Stedelijk Museum Amsterdam
  • Our cooperation with circular partners and how sustainability permeates kitchen, textiles, furnishings and daily operations

There is room for questions, dialogue and deeper discussion, tailored to the knowledge level and background of the group.

This sustainability tour in Amsterdam is perfect for disciplines such as civil engineering, urban planning, hospitality, sustainability and facility management.
