Certifications

LEED Certified Hotel

Hotel Arista is the first LEED (Leadership in Energy and Design) certified hotel in Illinois as recognized by the U.S. Green Building Council.

In development, the property committed to recycling 70% of construction waste, and now in operation, the hotel uses 30% less water and 21% less energy than hotels of comparable size by adhering to LEED standards and to operational practices designed to conserve energy and reduce waste consumption.

Green Seal™ Certified Hotel

Hotel Arista solidifies its reputation as a top environmentally responsible hotel with its Silver certification designation from Green Seal, a nonprofit organization that develops stringent environmental standards for businesses and products. "Hotel Arista meets Green Seal Standard™ GS-33 based on waste minimization, water and energy efficiency, hazardous substance handling, and an environmental purchasing policy. GreenSeal.org"

SUSTAINABLE HOUSEKEEPING

We give all guests the option to give back by participating in our Green Housekeeping or linen re-use programs. We have a linen re-use program that allows for a reduced carbon footprint. The savings are reflected in energy usage, water usage, and less chemical disposal, which allows for increased longevity in linen. Guests also have the option to opt-out of housekeeping service daily and receive hotel credit in return

Naperville Illinois Hotel with Recycling

HOTEL WIDE RECYCLING

The building has recycling in all common areas and recycles all possible materials. Items recycled include paper, plastic, toner, wire hangers, batteries, cooking oil, and light bulbs.

DONATIONS

We feel giving back to the community is extremely important and try to donate in any way we can. We donate our time in frequent give-back events with local charities. We also partner with Naperville Hospitality Helps through volunteer efforts.

We donate surplus items to local charities. This also helps to reduce the amount of waste going to landfills. These items include bath amenities, linens, towels, food, newspapers, magazines, and various other items gathered from internal donation drives.

SUSTAINABLE PURCHASING POLICY

We make every effort to minimize our operational impact by purchasing eco-friendly products, partnering with like-minded vendors, making sound eco-operational decisions, while providing the highest level of service to our guests.
