Green Practices at Best Western Plus Hacienda Hotel

At the Hacienda Hotel, we are committed to reducing our environmental footprint through a variety of sustainable practices. In addition to installing state-of-the-art green equipment, we’ve recently eliminated single-use plastic water bottles. Instead, guests can now purchase reusable and refillable aluminum water bottles in their rooms for just $4, providing a convenient and eco-friendly option. Across all departments, our dedicated staff works hard to integrate green initiatives into our daily operations, ensuring that we continue to protect the environment while offering a top-tier guest experience.

Clean Air and Recycling

Did you know? Through our recycling efforts, we’ve diverted tons of recycling/reusable materials from the landfill each and every year. With our clean air initiative, we perform annual cleaning on all air handler units and coils, and we follow a preventive maintenance schedule with meticulous records to maintain clean air for all guests.

If you have any questions or concerns about our recycling efforts or the air systems in your room please give us a call and we'll be happy to assist.
