Green Hotels
These 10 hotels embody
environmental sensitivity plus
energy and water efficiency.
Hotels consume more energy
and water per square foot than
just about any other building type,
according to the ULI report Sustainability
in Hotels: Opportunities and
Trends Shaping the Future of Hospitality.
At the same time, guests are
paying closer attention to a hotel's
environmental impact when choosing
where to stay. As an additional
incentive, design strategies that cut
energy and water consumption pay
off in lower utility bills.
The following 10 projects-all completed
during the past five years-
include adaptations of a film
warehouse, a tire factory, an airport
terminal, and an oil company's
headquarters, as well as newly
constructed buildings that reduce
energy waste with ethernet cables,
integrate photovoltaics into their
facades, and deploy cooling methods
borrowed from African termites.

1. CitizenM Seattle South Lake Union
SEATTLE, WASHINGTON
Amsterdam-based CitizenM opened its first West Coast hotel in Seattle's
South Lake Union neighborhood in 2020. The seven-story building
consists of 264 rooms in modular units that were prefabricated
and finished off site, a strategy that minimizes construction waste
as well as cost. The local office of engineering firm Arup adapted the
modular cage design of other citizenM hotels to meet the stringent
requirements of local seismic codes.
The heating and cooling system conserves energy by relying on
an active chilled beam in each room, a dedicated outdoor air supply,
and heat pumps that capture excess heat to pre-warm domestic
hot water. CitizenM's smartphone app allows guests to check in,
open the room's doors, and control the lighting, blinds, room temperature,
and entertainment options. An art piece by local artist Jesse
LeDoux wraps a corner of the facade. The hotel was designed by the
Amsterdam-based design firm Concrete in collaboration with the local
office of Gensler.
