Sustainability policy
Introduction
At Warwick Reine Astrid – Lyon, we are evolving our practices responsibly, while remaining true to our identity and attentive to current environmental and social challenges. On our own scale, we are gradually committing to a sustainable development approach aimed at reducing our environmental impact, while respecting the people and heritage around us.
Our Vision
In a constantly changing world, Warwick Reine Astrid relies on strong foundations where hospitality, comfort, and the warm atmosphere of the residence are not only our strengths, but the very essence of our business.
Our ambition today is to combine these values with our commitment to addressing one of the major challenges of our time: sustainable development. Preserving natural resources, contributing to people’s well-being, and limiting our environmental impact are essential objectives for both current and future generations.
This policy is part of our sustainability management plan and guides all our actions, decisions, and investments.
1. Management and Sustainability
Our commitment to sustainable development is reflected at every level of the residence, from management to each member of staff.
It is based on several key principles:

• Continuously improving our environmental, social, and economic practices.

4. Training and Awareness
The success of our approach relies on everyone’s involvement.
That is why we are committed to:
• Regularly training our employees on sustainable development issues;
• Raising awareness among teams about good environmental and social practices;
