Sustainability at Hotel Internacional in Calella de Mar

At the Hotel Internacional in Calella de Mar, we believe that travel should never come at the expense of caring for our planet. That’s why we’ve implemented a range of sustainable practices, from energy efficiency to community integration. Our philosophy is simple: offer genuine well-being by the sea while ensuring a positive impact on the environment.

The BIOSPHERE certification ensures we incorporate sustainable practices in our daily operations—from waste management to energy use—aligning with the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).

We are also part of Tree Nation, an international reforestation initiative combating climate change. Through this partnership, we help plant trees and offset our carbon footprint.

We’ve installed systems that enable responsible water and energy usage without sacrificing guest comfort.

• Low-flow faucets and showers to optimize water use.
• Motion sensors in common areas to reduce electricity usage.
• LED lighting throughout the hotel for energy efficiency.

We encourage our guests to participate through informational signage in rooms and shared spaces, reminding of good habits like reusing towels or switching off lights and HVAC when not in use.

Sorting, reducing, and recycling are part of our daily routine. We offer easily accessible recycling stations throughout the hotel for glass, paper, plastics, and organic waste.

• Responsible disposal of hazardous waste (oils, batteries, fluorescent bulbs) with licensed partners.
• Reduction of single-use plastics in the restaurant and guest rooms.

Our kitchen features seasonal produce from local suppliers. This approach not only lowers carbon emissions but also supports small Maresme producers and fosters a circular economy.

• Fruits and vegetables from nearby farms.
• Wines and cavas from local wineries.

For us, sustainability also has a social dimension. We collaborate closely with local associations, shops, and cultural organizations to offer our guests an authentic experience.

• Partnering with local artisans for hotel decor.
• Promoting cultural activities and local events.
• Hiring staff from the nearby community.

Sustainability isn’t just about metrics—it’s also about the experience. That’s why we create healthy, eco-conscious spaces where comfort and environmental responsibility go hand in hand.

• Saltwater pool—eco-friendlier and gentler on your skin.
• Rooms with natural ventilation and sea views.
• Relaxing atmosphere that promotes mindful tourism.

Sustainability at the Hotel Internacional in Calella is more than just a commitment—it’s a way of embracing hospitality. Through energy conservation, responsible resource management, community collaboration, and BIOSPHERE certification, we prove that tourism can be respectful, inclusive, and beneficial for everyone.
