MEETING THE CHALLENGE OF SUSTAINABLE EXCELLENCE

From Crillon le Brave to Saint-Tropez, and from Méribel to Paris soon, Maisons Pariente has assembled a collection of 5-star hotels designed as private homes in perfect harmony with their environment. In each of its establishments, Maisons Pariente has only one goal: to offer the best.

Maisons Pariente offers the best for their clients, including ultra-personalised amenities and services that make you feel at home from the very moment you step inside.

The best for its employees, as they are the ones who make the company valuable. Excellent working conditions in the hotels, restaurants and spas ensure each individual has the opportunity to grow, acquire skills and progress in their careers. An employee of the month is chosen to reward and highlight the efforts of our teams. Many employees and hoteliers participate in the 10km des étoiles run which supports the Laurette Fugain association. This is an incredible cause for children, teenagers and adults suffering from blood and bone marrow cancer. This is a unique opportunity to unite our hoteliers and employees whilst also maintaining a company culture to which everyone is proud to belong.

The best for its suppliers and partners, thanks to brilliant professional relations, based on cooperation, sincere, fair and balanced teamwork in an ethical environment. An innovative business model that ensures quality, profitability and responsibility.

The best for the environment, with admirable sustainable choices to reduce impact, preserve natural resources and avoid waste.

IMAGINING RESPONSIBLE LUXURY

We all know the resources of our planet must be protected. The energy crisis and the increasing scarcity of water means that we must change our behaviour, one small step at a time. Every year, Maisons Pariente participates in Earth Hour by turning off all its electric lights, as a symbolic action which has resulted in many other initiatives being implemented as a result.

LOCAL GASTRONOMY

At Crillon le Brave, the restaurants promote local produce and seasonal eating. Obtaining the Ecotable 1 label in September 2022, this is an amazing achievement for the company and shows that gastronomy can be both gourmet and environmentally conscious. In addition, reusable containers have been introduced in all our hotels for fruit and vegetable deliveries.

INTELLIGENT SOBRIETY

Each Maisons Pariente hotel offers its customers the option to change their bath and bed linens on demand rather than daily, to reduce water and energy consumption. Cardboard water cartons replace plastic bottles and toiletries are now offered in large sizes, with soaps recycled through dedicated channels. Donations are made to the Secours Populaire Français. All parking lots are equipped with electric charging stations. In addition, all the light bulbs in Maisons Pariente hotels are LED. In order to reduce consumption, taps in the bathrooms have water aerators. Moreover, Simmons hotel beddings are 100% made in France, in fact the fabrics are Oeko-Tex certified, the wood is PFEC certified and the company is EcoVadis silver medal certified, so many arguments that will make you appreciate these dream beddings even more!

Maisons Pariente invites you to your home, extend the experience with excellent bedding.

COLLECTIVE COMMITMENT

Internally, Maisons Pariente has installed water fountains and provide water bottles for their teams who eat at the Foodles canteen. In addition, our hoteliers are part of the Clean Walks organisation which ensures waste is collected in the vicinity of our hotels. Our upcoming 2023 Paris opening, Le Grand Mazarin, had installed bed lifts that will make it easier to clean rooms, this means employees will be able to easily around the bed rather than pushing it. Maisons Pariente is committed to building a society that respects ethical criteria, diversity, employability, human rights and health & safety. All the staff are trained in welcoming people with disabilities and in eco-actions.

PROTECTED BIODIVERSITY

Provence is not only a paradise for cicadas... Bat nesting boxes and bird feeders are installed and regularly supplied, and each season before the opening a clean walk is organised in Crillon le Brave to preserve local biodiversity. In addition, Maisons Pariente favours the purchase of vintage furniture in all our beautiful projects, with the primary objective to reducing the carbon footprint. We have also set up a car rental service for business trips with the company VIRTUO, which balances its carbon impact and is gradually replacing its fleet with electric cars. Many of the cleaning products in the hotels are environmentally friendly and biodegradable. Soaps are collected and recycled in partnership with a health organisation committed to improving the quality of life for communities in need. We have implemented a waste sorting, recycling and reduction system with the training of our teams. The linen at the end of the cycle is reused for cleaning.

In addition, Maisons Pariente has set up a car rental service for business trips with the company VIRTUO, which offsets its carbon impact and is gradually replacing its vehicles with electric cars.

Café Joyeux x Maisons Pariente

Convinced that coffee can have a positive impact on our society, Café Joyeux and Maisons Pariente have joined forces to promote the employment of people with mental and cognitive disabilities, offering special attention to each of its customers. In the mini bars of all the hotels, Maisons Pariente offers free coffee capsules from CAFE JOYEUX. CAFE JOYEUX are also available for employees in the Paris headquarters offices. 100% of the profits made by the company are reinvested in the opening of new cafés to enable the hiring of disabled people. Assembled by a "Meilleure Ouvrière de France", their coffee is roasted and packaged in France. All orders are prepared by 30 disabled people in Paris.

Thinking further and doing more

For the luxury hotel industry, the ecological transition is a long road and Maisons Pariente is moving forward, modestly, step by step to meet the challenges. Kimberley Cohen, co-founder and artistic director of Maisons Pariente, explains,

"We are part of a global societal ecosystem and we are well aware of the environmental issues and responsibilities we all must assume. We are fortunate to work in places of unique beauty, and it is up to us to limit our impact while providing our clients with unique memories, again and again."
