While EUROTEL is beginning to make its environment and social development awareness commitment felt by its people through their small activities in areas where they operate, Go feels that they still have a long way to go. “We have conducted seminars, tree planting and crafts-making activities from recycled materials in Baguio City and we hope to do more.”
For a start, the Hotel will maximize the use of sunlight in the design of its rooms and in all possible areas of the building .It will also use disposable but biodegradable materials for most of its packaging and conduct more conservation activities geared towards helping the environment and planet earth. All these are geared towards becoming one of the pioneer “Green Hotels” in the Philippines and in Asia.
In the pipeline is a plan to harness rainwater for their operations not only in the Baguio City branch but in their other projects as well. The system will harvest rainwater and store it in tanks that will be connected to the hotel’s toilet flush systems. The rainwater will also be used for cleaning, gardening and landscaping purposes.
Go said that this is a concrete step in the right direction of being a “Green Hotel”, given that there is already a water shortage problem in many key Cities. “Admittedly, we have to do more about the fragile watershed system. As our way to help, we want to lessen our demands on the water system by creating our own source while investing our money and other resources wisely. After all, rainwater is free! There is ‘green economics’ there and we hope that this practice will inspire other hotels as well. The economy is facing tremendous challenges. We in the hotel industry should be more aggressive, innovative, creative and more environmentally-sensitive. Gone are the days of sacrificing the environment just because we want to be No. 1.Being ‘world-class’ should start by being sensitive to what we leave behind, our environmental footprint, including our carbon emissions.”

In the planning stage are branches in Davao, Boracay (along station two), as well as branches in Greenhills, Cagayan de Oro & Naga, Bicol.

The Eurotel hotel is in a great location, close to a lot of shopping, restaurants and a safe area to walk around. The hotel lobby is nice. The draperies, bathroom, beds, are also very dated. Location is excellent, in Providence, a medium-high class district. Thanks a lot…
