From the
State of Vermont
"I would like to congratulate the West Hill House on becoming a partner in our Green Hotels program. I'd also like to take this opportunity to express my appreciation for the work you have done to satisfy the standards established by the Vermont Business Environmental Partnership to be recognized as a Green Hotel.
We recognize and fully appreciate the commitment and effort it takes to achieve such status and we applaud you for your accomplishment. We look forward to working with you in continuing to prevent or reduce waste and to improve resource efficiency."
Laura Q. Pelosi
Commissioner
Vermont Department of Environmental Conservation
West Hill House is a Green Hotel
As a Green Hotel we take our stewardship of the environment and our energy usage very seriously. For example:
- In your room you will see a large blue recycling bin for paper, glass, plastic and metal objects
- Over half of our garbage is separated for recycling
- Most of the hot water you will use is heated by our roof mounted solar panels
- We clean the inn with natural products
