From eco-label to booking service
Bookdifferent.com is a social enterprise and booking platform that enables travellers to see which hotels are implementing responsible practices.
The booking platform is an affiliate of booking.com and works together with eco-labels that have their standards publicly available and performs 3rd-party audits and onsite assessments.
A hotel certified by a partner eco-label will receive Bookdifferent.com’s visible staygreencheck indicator. For hotels that are still not certified by an eco-label Bookdifferent.com calculates the accommodation carbon footprint – based on a formula developed with Breda University of Applied Sciences (BUAS) and the Dutch tourism sector.
A green foot icon is shown for all accommodations that score lower than 14,99 kg carbon per guest night.
