Mercure Amsterdam City - Luxury hotel - Sustainability

Our hotel aims to become as sustainable as possible and has been implementing innovative sustainable solutions for over a couple of years. We also eliminated a vast amount of non-sustainable practices and do our best to continuously evaluate our products and services critically. This has resulted in the Gold status for both Accor’s sustainability program called Planet 21 as well as GreenKey, an independent certifier.
