Sustainability at Van der Valk Hotel Hoorn

Van der Valk x Valkenbos

Van der Valk Hotel Hoorn works with Green Stay. With this concept, you as a guest can choose to make a positive contribution to greening the Netherlands. When you choose to skip your interim cleaning during your stay, we will plant a tree on your behalf in the Valkenbos.

By choosing our Valkenbos initiative, you play a crucial role in revitalizing the Valkenbos. With each night without a towel change, you contribute to the replanting of our 40-hectare forest, which has been in our possession since 1979.

Not only do you support CO2 storage - with one tree absorbing about a ton of CO2 during its lifecycle - but you also strengthen our commitment to sustainable business practices.

Your decision has a direct impact: for every cleaning saving you make, we plant a new tree, contributing to our goal of planting 10,000 trees annually.

How do you choose Green Stays before your stay? You will receive an email from us two days before arrival. Through this email, you can indicate that you choose Green Stays. The reception will automatically be notified and will note this in your reservation.

How do you choose Green Stays upon arrival at the hotel? At check-in, you can inform the reception that you want to choose Green Stays.

How do you choose Green Stays during your stay? Hang the 'Green Stays' door hanger (found in your hotel room) outside your room door by 12:00 noon. Our housekeeping will then skip the cleaning of your room and report this to reception for administrative processing.
