La Falconeria Hotel – Environmental and Sustainability Policy
At La Falconeria, sustainability is not simply a box to tick — it is our way of being. We integrate sustainability into our core operations, striving to minimise negative impacts and actively contribute to environmental protection and community wellbeing.
As a boutique hotel, our smaller scale allows us to be precise, agile, and personal in our environmental actions. Every decision we make — from the partners we work with to the products we select — is guided by our sustainability ethos.
Our Commitments: A Living Practice
We approach sustainability as an evolving practice, grounded in measurable actions and inspired by our connection to community and place. Below are the core principles guiding our environmental and social responsibilities.
1. Environmental Integrity
Reduce our environmental footprint by actively managing our energy and water consumption through efficient systems, habits, and equipment.
Minimise waste through prevention, reuse, and robust recycling efforts tailored to Malta’s local waste management infrastructure.
Eliminate single-use plastics wherever viable and pursue alternatives.
Participate in conservation efforts in the Maltese Islands.
2. Continuous Measurement & Adaptation
Set annual sustainability goals based on tracked data and local environmental standards.
Routinely evaluate our operational impact through audits and staff input.
Commit to transparency and integrity in reporting progress.
3. Conscious Sourcing
Favour local, seasonal, and small-batch products to reduce carbon impact and support Maltese producers.
Choose organic, eco-labelled, and fair-trade-certified goods wherever available.
4. Guest Engagement with Purpose
Offer guests the opportunity to participate meaningfully in our sustainability efforts through simple, respectful invitations — from linen reuse to cultural immersion.
Provide clear, accessible information about our green practices both in-room and online.
Inspire conscious travel by highlighting local experiences that promote heritage, nature, and responsible tourism.
5. Staff Empowerment & Education
Provide regular, hands-on sustainability training to all staff members, tailored to their specific roles.
Foster a culture where sustainability is not top-down but collaborative.
6. Social & Cultural Stewardship
Uphold a CSR policy that includes respect for human rights, fair labour, health and safety, and quality guest experience.
Serve as a responsible neighbour in Valletta’s evolving urban fabric, aware of our role in preserving its charm and liveability.
La Falconeria is coordinating its sustainability measures in collaboration with Green Key Malta
