The EU Ecolabel criteria for holiday accommodation were established on January 25, 2017, by the European Commission. Established to promote sustainability, it ensures that certified accommodations optimize environmental and waste management, and reduce energy and water consumption, transport emissions, and food waste. This label is crucial as it helps consumers make eco-friendly choices and supports the tourism industry in adopting sustainable practices, contributing to a circular economy and reducing environmental impact.
