Ospitalità rigenerativa, ecco dove va l’hotellerie

🏡 Gabriele Gneri, managing director of Hotelsdoctors, highlights a business model transformation for hotels through 'regenerative hospitality', a more ambitious and inclusive sustainability model. Regenerative hospitality aims for a tangible positive impact on local communities and ecosystems, beyond just reducing harm. Examples include a resort in Jamaica that helped start a local bottled water supply company. This approach is currently more prevalent in peripheral luxury hotels with about 30 to 40 rooms, but it is expected to be adopted by all types of hotel structures in the future.
