Green Comment:

Known for its commitment to reduce impact on the environment, the Dune has put in place a number of green practices such as: installation of reclaimed building material from south Indian colonial houses, use of solar heated water system as well as installation of low consumption bulbs and waste water treatment plants. Rooms do not have air conditioning and has been using refreshing sea breeze for cooling. The Dune also provides local working opportunities for residents in the area, thus providing their families with income.

The Dune Hotel is situated in Chennai, in the region of Tamil Nadu of India . This specific country is unfortunately, relative to its size and population, one of the most environmentally damaging country of the world . Chennai more particularly is a city whose inhabitants are mobilizing more and more in order to implement local solutions to limit one way or another their ecological footprint .
