• Using ground-source heat pumps that use the natural energy of the earth to cool rooms in the summer and to heat them in the winter.
• This may sound real dirty, but using water recycled from taking shower and baths to flush the toilet. Hotels save 20% of their total water usage.
• Some in Britain, have used wool from sheep to create insulation in the walls. Such insulation are good thermally and acoustically.
• Creative energy saving lighting, coupled with sensors that allow the lights to come on when needed.
• Using solar panels to trap the sun’s rays that are used in heating the bath water.

Equipped with such information, you are in a good position to determine whether to close the whole facility or let some part of the hotel stay open.
2. Pick the slowest time of the year for your renovation. Select and coordinate the work with your contractor, taking into account, the guests that are staying there and the time line for completion.
3. After the remodel, let the world and guests know what a wonderful job you’ve done.
