The Zetter (as reviewed in our eco-chic hotels story SEE STORY ) is something of a showcase for sustainable hotels in miniature – the building was restored with sustainability as THE consideration, all guests get fold up bikes to use, water comes from the hotel’s own well, sustainable food is a given, plus, of course, all the basic energy saving, social, cultural and environmental considerations have been delivered to their maximum extent – hence the top gold award from the Green Tourism Business Scheme.
