Let’s face it, there's no such thing as climate neutral vacations.
Carbon offsets and biodegradable straws are great, but they won’t save the world. Or your soul. Still, that doesn’t mean we shouldn’t do everything to minimize our footprint when traveling the world.
At Daniel & Jacob’s, we are committed to making your stay in our apartments a positive experience for both you and the city you are visiting. And do everything possible to reduce the environmental impact of your stay. For both people and planet.

Waste-reducing vacations
No unnecessary paper or plastic in our apartments. Soap, shampoo, lotion – all in refillable dispensers. No guidebooks, or city maps cluttering your space – it's all digital. Even our coffee capsules are 100% biodegradable. Waste sorting? Yes please.
Wind powered apartments
If you’re a fan of green energy, get ready to be blown away when you flick on the lights or turn on the oven in our apartments. Scanenergi has us covered with electricity from Danish windmills.
Circular linen service
Our towels and linens? They're in cahoots with Elis, a CSR and Bureau Veritas certified pioneer for circular services. All their water, energy, and detergent use are certified by The Nordic Swan Ecolabel.
No single-use plastic, please
Plastic? Not our style. Glasses made of glass, cutlery made of metal, plates and cups made from natural materials. That’s how we like it. Who wants their coffee in a plastic cup anyway?
Local sourcing
Most of our furniture and inventory, from beds and chairs to lamps to rugs, are sourced from local suppliers. Coffee, soap, toilet paper – all from our close friends. Sorry, China, we're keeping it local.
Eco-labelled cleaning
They are not the cheapest cleaning company in town, but De 5 Stjerner (The 5 Stars) has the highest standards for environmental protection and employee standards. They only use cleaning products certified by the Nordic Swan Ecolabel. A Cleaning Dream Team!
Intelligent Heating
The greenest energy is the one we don’t use. In 2024 we are hooking the heating in our apartments up with digital genies. Thermostats will automatically lower the temperature when guests check out and turn it back on well before the next check-in. That’s energy efficiency in a nutshell.
Pedal-Powered Operations
With apartments throughout the city, there's a fair amount of transportation for our staff. This is primarily done on bicycles provided by SwapFiets. It's more fun and way faster than taking a car. And better for people and planet.
What’s Next on Our Green List?
Just because our sustainability ratings beat the big hotels and competitors, we are not popping the champagne just yet.
We are constantly on the hunt for new ways to do things better and smarter. Using more sustainable buildings, sponsoring carbon capturing projects, and giving our staff unlimited vacation (hey, they already have that).
Stay tuned to find out how we strive to make it better for people and planet to stay local with Daniel & Jacob’s.
