As part of our efforts to reduce plastic waste, we have discontinued the provision of some of the bottled mineral water that was previously offered as a service—specifically at Guest Rooms—and have installed water purifiers on each floor at Guest Rooms.

With the goal of protecting the global environment, and with the understanding and cooperation of our guests,
for guests staying multiple nights, we offer the “Eco-Cleaning” service described at Guest Rooms.
By reducing the amount of energy used for housekeeping and laundry,
we are committed to working together with our guests to reduce CO2 emissions.
Please note that we also offer a “Full Cleaning” service upon request.

Food loss is a problem in which food that is still good enough to eat is thrown away. To solve this problem, a portion of the food is placed in a small bowl 30 minutes before the end of business hours.
We replenish the food depending on the number of customers who come to the restaurant.

The entire path from the entrance to the guest rooms is level, making the facility fully accessible. In addition to offering universal-access rooms, we also accommodate service dogs and provide wheelchair rentals.

We are helping to reduce carbon dioxide emissions by installing LED lights at all Guest Roomslocations and actively implementing energy-saving measures in our back-of-house operations.

As part of our efforts to address the global problem of marine pollution, we have switched from plastic straws to paper or biodegradable plastic straws.

Eco-Cap Recycling and Reuse
If you throw away plastic bottle caps as regular trash instead of recycling them as “Eco-Caps,” they will be incinerated or sent to landfills as general waste, becoming a source of carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions, contaminating the soil, and damaging the global environment.

HokkaidoThrough the Eco-Cap Campaign, we are working to create employment opportunities for seniors and people with disabilities at facilities that receive, sort, and crush Eco-Caps. Furthermore, we use a portion of the profits from the Eco-Cap recycling business to support children battling intractable diseases through the organization Hokkaido.

Through Eco-Cap recycling and resource recovery, let’s bring dreams, hope, and smiles to the children at Hokkaidowho are battling intractable diseases.
