4-Star-Superior Hotel Leitlhof, IT
Energy self-sufficient hotel with wood
Run by the Mühlmann family, the 155-bed Leitlhof is one of the few hotel properties in Europe to be completely self-sufficient in terms of energy, producing and using its own energy efficiently. The Leitlhof has set itself the task of taking action here and producing electricity and heat independently and in a climate-neutral manner using wood chips. The short distances involved mean the woodchip production process is also environmentally-friendly.
