Sustainability at the ATLANTIC Hotel Heidelberg
For us, acting responsibly is an integral part of our daily operations. That is why we implement numerous measures designed to conserve resources, use energy efficiently, and promote regional economic growth. From modern building technology and sustainable transportation options to collaboration with regional partners, we strive to manage our hotel operations in a conscious and forward-looking manner.
Working together for a sustainable future!
Discover a few simple tips here on how you can contribute to environmental protection in a relaxed manner during your stay. Thank you for joining us!
In Your Room
- Switch off the lights: When leaving the room, always remove your room card from the slot.
- Unplug electronics: Unplug chargers, laptops and other devices when not in use.
- Close windows and doors: This prevents energy loss through open windows and ensures that the ventilation system works optimally.
- Use curtains: Open curtains during the day to take advantage of natural light and close them in the evening to retain heat.
Laundry & cleaning
- Reuse towels: Please only place your towels on the floor if you would like new ones – this saves water and energy.
- Reduce room cleaning: Opt out of daily cleaning if it is not necessary. As compensation, we offer you a voucher worth €5.00 for our restaurant.

the environmental, social, and economic aspects of the hotel’s operations based on defined criteria and is reviewed regularly.
Conscious Use of Resources
Guests have the option to opt out of daily room cleaning. As a thank-you, they receive a gift certificate for our restaurant. This helps conserve water, energy, and cleaning supplies.
Sustainable Mobility
Thanks to our location right next to Heidelberg Central Station, our guests can enjoy a convenient trip by train and public transportation. We also offer bicycle parking and charging stations for electric vehicles.
Sponsorships
As a sponsor of the MLP Academics Heidelberg, the Enjoy Jazz Festival, and the Metropolink Festival, we promote local community spirit and actively expand our partnerships.
Regional Suppliers
Whenever possible, we work with regional producers and suppliers and incorporate regional products into our culinary offerings. In this way, we strengthen local value chains and promote short transportation routes.
The Hotel’s Own Bee Colonies
Since August 2025, two bee colonies have been living on our hotel roof, where they enjoy what is probably the best view of the city. In collaboration with a local beekeeper, we are actively promoting biodiversity. The honey they produce is used at the hotel for desserts in the restaurant and, in some cases, on the breakfast buffet.
