Sustainability

Sustainability

We love fairness.

Grindelwald is a place that gives you strength.

The nature that inspires us every day is the foundation of our lives. Without it, there would be neither unforgettable experiences nor the special sense of home that defines our region. To ensure that this remains the case, we want to work together to ensure that it stays as unique, vibrant, and authentic as it is today.

WE ARE SWISSTAINABLE!

We are part of the Swisstainable sustainability program and are classified as Level II – engaged. By participating, we are committing ourselves to continuous sustainable corporate development and thus making a concrete contribution to sustainable Swiss tourism.

Sustainability crew
With our “Green Group” we pool our superpowers to raise sustainability awareness among our teams, put green ideas into action, and implement measures together.

SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY

Sustainability is not only evident in our approach to nature, but also in our interactions with each other. We take responsibility for creating a respectful, inspiring work environment and for the people who make up our team.

Professional development
We provide financial support for the professional and personal development of our team. To this end, we offer “selfness” courses with external coaches on topics such as personal development, goal setting, and solution-oriented action. You can find more information about this under our events.

LOCAL COMMITMENT

Our deep local ties enable us to design our hotel exactly as we envision it.

  • Swissness Minibar – typical Swiss specialties await you in the minibar, which is included in the room price
  • Regional food – “Eigerness Original Grindelwald”
  • Local breakfast buffet – local cheese, fresh yogurt, and eggs from the Haimattenhof farm

WfW – WATER FOR WATER

At Barrys Restaurant, Bar & Lounge, we serve locally sourced drinking water, still or sparkling, and with every bottle sold, we support WfW’s water, hygiene, and education projects in Mozambique, Zambia, and Switzerland.
The drinking water in Grindelwald is of excellent quality, so you can fill your carafe in your room with fresh water at any time.

MY CLIMATE – CAUSE WE CARE

As a hotel guest, you too can get involved and contribute to local climate protection. We will double your donation of CHF 2 per night and invest it in effective sustainability measures directly on site.

Part of the sum will be used to support high-quality international climate protection projects run by the myclimate foundation, whereby we support the Naturwaldreservat Beatenberg-Habkern – a nature reserve in the canton of Bern.

Eiger Amenities

EIGER AMENITIES

We use “green” bathroom amenities from the
company Ada, which takes ecological aspects such as environmentally friendly
production and recyclability of packaging into account.
These are available for purchase at the reception desk.

REUSEME Flip Flops

Instead of using disposable flip flops, we invite you to purchase our reusable spa flip flops from REUSEME.

The items are also available for your home at eigershop.ch!
