Why this Eco‑Friendly Linen & Towel Policy Matters
Daily laundry consumes water, energy, and detergents. By changing linens and towels only on request, we reduce the environmental load while maintaining the comfort you expect.
- Less water and energy: Fewer washes mean fewer resources used and fewer laundry transports within operations.
- Fewer chemicals: Minimizing laundry cycles reduces detergent use, aligning with our emphasis on ecological cleaning products.
- Longer textile life: Gentler use extends the lifespan of quality linens and towels, reducing waste over time.
This policy is one part of a broader, practical approach to sustainability at Villa Angelino:
- Electricity comes exclusively from regional Green Energy generated by South Tyrol’s hydroelectric plants.
- Most lighting has been switched to energy‑efficient LEDs.
- We use intelligent timers to optimize operating times of devices and lights.
- Individual heating controls in every room let you fine‑tune temperature and avoid unnecessary consumption.
- We mainly use ecological cleaning products and recycled paper.
- We separate all waste carefully and donate furniture/equipment instead of discarding it.
How to Use the Policy (Step by Step)
- Settle in and reuse your towels and linens between changes as you wish.
- When you’d like fresh towels or a linen change, inform our team—we’ll take care of it promptly.
- Prefer a set rhythm? Tell us your preferred schedule (for example, mid‑stay), and we’ll align with your request.
That’s it—simple, flexible, and fully tailored to you.
Beyond the Bathroom: More Ways We Reduce Our Footprint
Sustainability at Villa Angelino extends well beyond laundry. Here are a few guest‑facing features and choices that make a difference:
- Nature‑positive grounds: Our hotel sits in a tranquil 3,000 m² park without fencing, and we steward two beehives in the wildflower meadow; each hive can house up to 200,000 bees, supporting pollination and yielding delicious late‑summer honey.
- Bring your own slippers: To avoid single‑use items, we kindly ask guests to bring slippers from home.
- Drink local, skip plastic: Enjoy the fresh Val Gardena tap water—it’s safe and delicious—by refilling a reusable bottle.
- Smarter travel: Every guest receives a South Tyrol MobilCard for unlimited public transport in South Tyrol at no extra charge. You can also ride the Val Gardena ski buses for free in winter. Arriving by rail? We can arrange luggage transport and shuttle services for guests arriving or departing by train, and on request we’ll email you a free digital bus pass before you arrive.
- Car‑light adventures: We’re Bike Friendly and offer a dedicated storage room for bicycles and e‑bikes. Guests enjoy a 10% discount on mountain bike rentals via the MTB School of Ortisei and benefit from reduced rates on e‑bike rentals through our partnership. Prefer to relax? All guests enjoy complimentary entry to Mar Dolomit, Ortisei’s public pool and spa complex.
