Our philosophy

Sustainability and well-being

Our daily choices have beneficial effects on the environment and his inhabitants. Furthermore, the sensory experience coming from the surrounding setting, furnishings or building material is decisive in contributing to our psychophysical wellbeing. Adopting ecological measures and virtuous daily practices, want to be a way to spread this awareness.

The environmental orientation of B&B D'ÉCO MILANO is practiced through the choice of organic food, ecological materials, biodegradable products, combined with the installation of devices for energy and water saving. A commitment that can be said to be effective only thanks to the involvement and collaboration of the guests.
