Our Sustainability Measures: In Harmony with Nature

At CASCADA Hotel and BOLERO Restaurante, we stand for more than just first-class service and exquisite gastronomy. Our motto – PASSION, WARMTH & MINDFULNESS – also forms the basis for our commitment to environmental and sustainability issues. Here is what it means for you and for us:

Already implemented sustainability measures
 

1. Energy Saving Measures: Our heating and cooling supply is provided by heat recovery from the wastewater of Hirschmattstrasse, supported by EWL green electricity.
2. Social Responsibility: We focus on employee development and training, equality, pay equity, and transparent communication of business figures.
3. Food Waste Management: A structured concept and monitoring to avoid food waste is standard for us.
4. Local and Spanish Product Procurement: Whenever possible, we source our products from Switzerland or Spain.
5. Sustainable Mobility: With an electric hotel bus and four electric vehicle charging stations, we reduce our ecological footprint.
6. LED Lighting: We use 100% LED lighting throughout the company.
7. Electronic Menus: To reduce paper waste, we use electronic menus.
8. Environmentally Friendly Products: We use biodegradable cleaning chemicals and hygiene products.
9. Employee Satisfaction: Regular surveys and attractive benefits, fair compensation, and training opportunities aim to sustainably ensure the satisfaction and commitment of our team.
10. Water Concept: With our AQUAPULERO system, we offer filtered, chilled water with and without carbonation at BOLERO Restaurante, reducing transport routes and single-use packaging.
11. Abandonment of Single-Use Bottles: In the hotel rooms, we replace traditional water bottles with reusable glass bottles for our guests, significantly minimizing PET and glass waste.
12. Green Button: Guests can personalize or cancel room cleaning at the touch of a button – this measurably reduces laundry and cleaning product consumption.

Planned measures by 2028

1. Window Renewal: All windows in the hotel rooms will be renewed to increase energy efficiency.
2. Solar Panels: We plan to install solar panels for hot water generation.
3. Waterfall Hotel Concept: We promote the awareness of the most beautiful Swiss waterfalls by expanding our "Waterfall Hotel" concept.
