Our knowledge is a drop,
our ignorance, an Ocean.
Isaac Newton
There are more than 1,200 hotels with sea or ocean views in metropolitan France alone. These hotels have an average of 36 rooms, i.e. nearly 45,000 rooms with an ocean view.
In fact, rooms with a "sea view" are always sold at a higher price than others... on average 30% higher, making the ocean a genuine natural resource that generates income for hoteliers.
For this appeal to endure and for business results to be maintained, it would therefore be appropriate toensure that the Ocean remains an attraction for both eyes and customers.
The "Hotel Engaged For Ocean" label allows you to concretize this commitment by creating a strong and coherent relationship with your customers.
What are the objectives?
- Assure your customers of the concrete commitments made by your establishment to preserve the Ocean, and more broadly the planet.
- Use the tools provided by the label to make your establishment a force for raising awareness of ocean preservation.
- Contribute to the maintenance of the Ocean resource and the perennial appeal of the Ocean
- Benefit from the tangible results of the label's actions
