Together we inspire sustainable hospitality in Europe, by creating better quality of life in our hotels and their neighborhoods through innovative solutions, making resource conservation a tangible experience for guests, employees and partners, and inviting everyone on a journey to discover a more conscious lifestyle.
Our Sustainability Commitment
As a leading pan-European white-label hotel operator, we recognize our responsibility to minimize our environmental footprint and contribute to a greener, more socially responsible world. Our commitment to sustainability follows the global vision established by the United Nations in 2015 through the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). These 17 goals serve as a “shared blueprint for peace and prosperity for people and the planet, now and into the future” (https://sdgs.un.org/goals). They urge us to combat poverty and inequality, and to spur economic growth – all while protecting the environment, steering us toward a more sustainable future.
At Event Hotels, we have embraced this journey in sustainability by focusing on 3 specific SDGs:
Decent Work and Economic Growth
People at the center of our work
We cultivate a diverse, inclusive, and equitable work environment that values and respects all employees, guests, and other stakeholders. We focus on productivity and innovation to help drive economic growth sustainably.

Our hotels also actively engage with the communities in which they operate. Through partnerships and initiatives, we aim to enhance wellbeing, support education, and address social needs.
In all our endeavors we uphold human rights, labor standards, and fair employment practices throughout our supply chain.
