Making sustainable choices at Van der Valk
Van der Valk Palace Hotel Noordwijk will be working with Green Stay starting from January 1, 2025. With this concept, you as a guest can choose to make a positive contribution to greening the Netherlands. If you choose to skip your interim cleaning during your stay, we will plant a tree on your behalf in the Valkenbos.
By choosing our Valkenbos initiative, you play a crucial role in revitalizing the Valkenbos. With each night stay without towel change, you contribute to the replanting of our 40-hectare forest, which has been in our possession since 1979.
Not only do you support CO2 storage - with one tree absorbing about one ton of CO2 during its lifecycle - but you also strengthen our commitment to sustainable business practices.
Your decision has a direct impact: for every saving on your cleaning, we plant a new tree, contributing to our goal of planting 10,000 trees annually.
How do you choose Green Stays before your stay?
You will receive an email from us two days before arrival. Through this email, you can indicate that you choose Green Stays. The reception will automatically be notified and will note this in your reservation.
How do you choose Green Stays upon arrival at the hotel?
When checking in, you can inform the reception that you would like to choose Green Stays.
How do you choose Green Stays during your stay?
Hang the 'Green Stays' door hanger (found in your hotel room) outside your room door by 06:00 AM. Our housekeeping will then skip cleaning your room and report this to reception for administrative processing.
