Sustainability at Emery

 

At Hotel Emery, we are dedicated to sustainability—it’s a mindset woven into everything we do. Inspired by Minnesota’s cold climate and resilient spirit, we are committed to doing good for the planet, people, and places that sustain our operations. We are proud to take meaningful steps to reduce our environmental impact and operate daily in a socially responsible way to protect our environment and community.

Our Green Initiatives

  • A soft bed with a navy headboard

    Choose to Conserve Program

    Opt out of stay‑over housekeeping and earn 1,000 Marriott Bonvoy points per night—saving water, energy, and cleaning products while rewarding you for making a sustainable choice.

  • Composting Program

    We have implemented full composting across both our hotel and restaurant operations—reducing waste from the front and back of house while supporting a cleaner future. Our use of biodegradable disposables help divert waste from landfills and support a more circular ecosystem.

  • Zero Single-Use Plastics

    We’ve eliminated all single-use plastics across the property, replacing them with reusable, compostable, or biodegradable alternatives wherever possible.

  • PATH Water Partnership

    We proudly offer PATH aluminum water bottles—refillable, recyclable, and designed to help eliminate plastic bottle waste from the start. Refill stations are conveniently located throughout the hotel, making it easy to stay hydrated and reduce waste during your stay.

  • A marble bathroom sink with a large mirror

    Chemical-Free Cleaning

    Our partnership with Tersano allows us to clean and sanitize using Stabilized Aqueous Ozone—a powerful, chemical-free solution that’s safe for guests, staff, and the planet.

  • Marble lobby with benches

    Efficient Fixtures

    Our guest rooms and public spaces feature low-flow toilets, water-efficient fixtures, and double-glazed windows—conserving energy and water without sacrificing comfort. In our lobby, Solatubes channel natural sunlight into the space, reducing the need for artificial lighting during the day and enhancing the ambiance with soft, energy-efficient light.
