Our Certifications and Commitments

At the Grand Hôtel d’Orléans, we are convinced that a comfortable stay can also be more environmentally friendly.

For several years, we have been continuously evolving our establishment to offer our guests an experience that is ever more enjoyable, responsible and sustainable. Today, these commitments are recognised through three national labels: Destination d’Excellence, Green Key and Accueil Vélo.

These distinctions reflect our commitment to welcoming every traveller with care, while contributing to a form of tourism that is more respectful of people, local communities and the environment.

🏆 Destination d’Excellence

Recognition of our quality of service

The Grand Hôtel d’Orléans is proud to hold the Destination d‘Excellence certification, an award recognising establishments that meet demanding standards in terms of quality of service, professionalism and sustainable tourism.

This label highlights our daily commitment to providing each of our guests with a warm, authentic and personalised experience.

It recognises, in particular:

• the quality of our welcome and service
• the continuous improvement of our facilities and services
• our commitment to responsible tourism
• the promotion of our heritage and local area

For our team, this distinction is above all a recognition of expertise and know-how passed down through three generations.

🌿 Green Key

Concrete actions to reduce our environmental impact

The Grand Hôtel d’Orléans is also proud to hold the Green Key certification, a label awarded to tourist accommodation providers committed to a demanding and sustainable environmental approach.

This certification recognises the day-to-day actions implemented by our team to minimise the hotel’s impact on the environment while preserving the comfort and quality of our guests’ stay.

Our approach focuses in particular on:

• managing our water and energy consumption
• reducing and sorting our waste
• limiting the use of single-use plastic products
• providing filtered drinking water
• choosing local and responsible products, particularly for our breakfast
• raising awareness among our team and guests about eco-friendly practices
• promoting public transport, cycling and other sustainable forms of mobility
• Through these actions, we aim to make lasting changes to our practices and enable everyone to make the most of their stay in Toulouse while adopting a more responsible way of travelling

We also invite you to assess the carbon footprint of your journeys using the tool provided by ADEME, so that we can work together towards more sustainable tourism.
