Our commitments
Know-how for knowing how to be
Because nature is one of our primary inspirations, Hôtel L’Ormaie’s aim is to preserve it with European Ecolabel certification. Which is why its savoir-vivre and art of hospitality are as attentive to your comfort as they are to sustainable development. In this respect, we make sure that our energy consumption is moderate and that our water consumption is efficient, in order to optimise our carbon footprint. We strive to prioritise the circular economy and the local socioeconomic fabric, which is achieved through concrete, responsible measures at the service of your well-being.
Climate
Good energy
To act against climate change, moderate energy consumption is one of the leading solutions. Accordingly, Hôtel L’Ormaie sets the temperature of its heating and air-conditioning systems between 19 and 24°C, thereby optimising energy efficiency.
Water
The right source
At Hôtel L’Ormaie, water is an element of choice, especially on account of the Passy reservoirs nearby, which throughout the 19th century supplied water to part of the capital. As a result, we pay particular attention to its preservation as well as its pureness. The bottled water served at Hôtel L’Ormaie is filtered tap water, from a nearby source. Our purified Paris tap water doesn’t need to be transported and no plastic is used. Furthermore, as washing linen generates non-negligible quantities of pollutants that are drained as waste water, l’Hôtel L’Ormaie suggests changing your bed linen only when you feel it’s necessary. It is an established fact that thousands of litres of water are saved annually in this way, thereby contributing to protecting an essential natural resource.
Recycling
Proper sorting
And what about separating the wheat from the chaff? At Hôtel L’Ormaie, waste sorting bins are provided so as to make it easier to recycle, by separating organic waste, metal, paper, plastic and packaging. Above and beyond Hôtel l’Ormaie staff’s conscientious commitment to this best practice, you can also make your contribution by using the waste sorting baskets available both in your room and in all public areas.
High-quality produce
The right people
At Hôtel L’Ormaie, truly authentic quality is our priority. This is why we apply rigorous standards when it comes to selecting partners and suppliers, all of whom the hotel staff know personally. Building loyalty with our purveyors of local expertise and experience not only enables us to sustain the local socioeconomic fabric, but also to reduce the logistics-related carbon footprint. By opting for suppliers nearest Paris and in the Paris area, ethical dynamics come into their own, on a human scale — naturally.
Social Commitment
The Right Conditions
A hotel is nothing without the people who bring it to life. At Hôtel L’Ormaie, each team member thrives in a respectful, inclusive, and nurturing work environment. Guided by a Responsible Recruitment Charter, we celebrate diverse backgrounds, value individual talent, and promote equal opportunity. Ongoing training, personalized support, and a culture of listening help everyone grow with integrity and purpose.
Local Engagement
The Right Connections
Under the shelter of tall trees, deep roots grow. Hôtel L’Ormaie nurtures strong, lasting partnerships with artisans, producers, and merchants based in Paris and the Île-de-France region. This commitment to locality fuels a virtuous cycle—both human and economic. By favoring short supply chains, seasonal products, and direct relationships, we help sustain a vibrant, generous, and deeply rooted Paris.
Governance
The Right Direction
Acting with intention begins by knowing where you’re headed. Hôtel L’Ormaie’s commitment is guided by a Sustainability Management Plan—a true roadmap for responsible action.
