Eco-friendly events
Eco-friendly packages for eco-responsible business events are available for every business client. In addition, there’s the possibility to plan “Green” private events, if requested weddings, anniversaries, nominations, balls, banquets, etc.,
The conference “Organizing a successful event: The choices that make the difference,” is a great example, considering the fact that it won the 2013 Vivat, Loto-Québec Price for responsible events in the Food category.
The 4 Green Keys program
As an enterprise, Hôtel Château Laurier Québec is committed to its social responsibility and agrees to improve its environmental and fiscal performances through the 4 Green Keys program.
Défi Saint-Laurent

Healthy Environment
In order to settle their principals inside their very own installations, Hotel Chateau Laurier Quebec placed Recycling bins for paper, cardboard, glass and metal on various floor. A rigorous management about how water is used is in place: sanitation, landscape watering, maintenance of the pools saltwater, water coolers instead of bottled water, and environmentally friendly, bio-engineered cleaning products made in Quebec. There’s also efforts made on energy saving with low-watt light bulbs and making sure empty rooms and other hotel spaces always have their lights and heating off when not in use. There was also an installation of a garden and urban hives made on the roof. Finally, the participation at “Earth Hour” of the World Wide Fund for Nature (WWF) is now an annual tradition.

A fair social conscience
We pass along our used furniture, surplus bedding, bath and shower fixtures and other fittings that do not meet 4-star hotel standards to local organizations, including women’s centers, Maison Lauberivière, Patro Roc-Amadour, Saint-Vincent de Paul society, Maison Dauphine, and others. Our hotel room’s bedding, curtains and furniture are made in Quebec.
