- Since 2021, we’ve been generating 90% of our electricity needs via photovoltaics or a state-of-the-art combined heat and power plant
- Before that, we sourced 100% green electricity
- We attach great importance to energy-saving devices and primarily use LED lamps with timers and motion detectors
- Heat recovery: our cold stores generate a lot of thermal energy, which we use to heat our pool and whirlpool, for example
Sustainable holidays in the Allgäu
For us, sustainability isn’t a passing phase
At the hotel Das Rübezahl we live and breathe sustainability. And we’ve been doing so for generations, not just since it became “fashionable". That’s how we’ve kept the boutique hotel going since 1959. The Thurm family’s thinking has been future-proof for three generations - economical energy usage, regional produce sourcing, resource-saving construction, catering to their loyal hotel guests, treating their long-standing employees with respect and cultivating cordial relations with local people. In a nutshell, we look out for each other and act responsibly. And these remain the basic pillars of sustainability and the family philosophy today.
