Would you like to know everything about sustainability at Four Elements Hotel Amsterdam? We will tell you all about how energy-neutral we are, our BREEAM certificate, and the building itself.
THE BUILDING
Four Elements Hotel Amsterdam is the world’s first nearly zero-energy hotel — a place where comfort, nature and technology come together seamlessly.
The building itself is a living example of what’s possible when architecture, technology, and ecology work hand in hand. Every stone, every window and every shower is designed with sustainability in mind.
THE CONCEPT
At the heart of Four Elements Hotel is the revolutionary Earth, Wind & Fire (EWF) concept, developed by Professor Ben Bronsema, a visionary engineer who dedicated his career to natural climate-technology.
Four Elements Hotel is the first hotel in the world running on the EWF concept, and serves as a flagship project for sustainable architecture. It shows that comfort, luxury, and environmental awareness can perfectly coexist.
BREEAM CERTIFICAAT
BREEAM is the internationally recognised method for assessing the sustainability of buildings. This assessment covers everything: from energy consumption to choice of materials, water management, indoor climate health, and ecology.
Four Elements Hotel Amsterdam has achieved the BREEAM-NL “Excellent” certificate, with a score of 70.11%.
This official certification confirms that our vision is not only ambitious, but also measurable and truly sustainable.
SUSTAINABLE TOURS
You can book a sustainable tour at Four Elements Hotel and discover how a building doesn’t just use less, but actively generates energy, reuses waste, and demonstrates what truly sustainable construction looks like.
We believe sustainability isn’t just the future — it’s already here.
Come and see, experience it, feel it.
SUSTAINABLE PARTNERS
We believe real hospitality goes beyond comfort and luxury: with every stay, we aim to make a positive contribution to a greener world.
That’s why we collaborate with partners who share our vision of environmentally conscious entrepreneurship, from local producers to innovative suppliers.
Together we build a greener (hotel) future.
