CLEVELAND, OHIO—Green Lodging News has added its second case study to its new Vendor Case Studies section. The case study focuses on the Best Western Executive Inn and Best Western Loyal Inn, both in Seattle, and how they have successfully implemented Upland, Calif.-based Green Suites International’s EcoRoom® program.

EcoRooms® feature more than a dozen different environmental products. They include: compact fluorescent light bulbs; low-flow showerheads and sink faucets; nightlights; digital thermostats; non-toxic cleaning chemicals; Nature’s Mist deodorizer; a linen reuse program; and lotion and liquid soap products dispensed from refillable containers in the shower and at the sink.

A pre-installation analysis showed that the two hotels, based on occupancy levels and the level of service and amenities they provide, would save about $2.50 per occupied guestroom per day, equaling nearly $150,000 per year in energy (gas and electricity), water, waste and labor while doing a lot for the regional ecology, according to Cole Wilcox, EcoRoom® Project Manager for Green Suites® International.
