Along with high-performance, triple-glazed windows that regulate indoor temperatures, Archontiko Nikolopoulou's contribution to environmental conservation extends to wildlife conservation and reforestation initiatives. Moreover, non-toxic cleaning products, LED lighting, and training for staff to uphold environmental policies add to the hotel's robust eco-friendly practices. Water conservation is prioritized with toilets designed to flush using up to only 6 liters per flush. Lastly, the commitment to the local community shines through their food sourcing policy, which ensures that most ingredients used in meal preparation are locally produced, further reducing their carbon footprint. To ensure continued adherence to their green objectives, an energy audit is performed at least once every five years.
