Tips to enjoy a sustainable holiday in London

If you are an eco-conscious traveller London is the ideal destination to spend a holiday. Like with most major cities in the world Londoners are quite eco-conscious and most try to minimise the carbon footprint they leave behind.

One of the best ways to accomplish this is by staying at eco-friendly accommodation like the Park Grand Hotel London, which strives to be eco-friendly in the items it uses and services and facilities.

Its location close to the airport makes it the ideal London Heathrow hotel to stay while on a trip. Reasonably priced it offers excellent facilities and outstanding customer service, which makes it a popular choice for leisure and business travellers.

A few tips that can come in handy in enjoying a sustainable holiday in the city are:

 While travel by plane is unavoidable by plane if you are an overseas traveller, those living in Europe can choose the alternative of travelling by train with the Eurostar. This would help to minimise the carbon foot print.

 When you charge your laptop, phone or any other electronic gadget always make it a point to remove the charger when charged.

 Preferably dine at a restaurant like the onsite Grill restaurant at the hotel that uses only seasonal produce organically produced in its excellent menu. This is not only healthy but also helps the environment.

 One of the best ways to travel while in London is to make optimum use of its well developed public transport network. Instead of hiring a car and driving around in the crowded city traffic, use the Tube or the bus. This will not only help the environment but will also help you to save on time and money.

 If you want to explore central London, most of the attractions are in close vicinity of each other. Leg it or hire a bicycle from Santander to make the trip more enjoyable and eco-friendly.
