Sustainability
at the Hassler

The contribution of every person.

Sustainability starts with people. This is why we invest in the continuous training of our team, encouraging responsible behaviour and dialogue across departments.

• Every new team member goes through an onboarding period during which all operating procedures, including sustainability practices, are explained.
• Training is ongoing and regularly updated, including on department-specific products and practices.
• Every suggestion from our team represents an opportunity for improvement: ideas are gathered and assessed together with department managers.

The quality of our culinary offering begins with the selection of ingredients and respect for their value. At Imàgo, our Michelin star restaurant, we work largely with suppliers from Rome and the surrounding Lazio region, celebrating the excellence of the territory.

• Careful inventory management following the First In, First Out (FIFO) principle, to reduce waste and expired stock.
• Thoughtful reuse of ingredients: from bones for stocks to leftover bread repurposed into soups and snacks.
• Separate collection of used cooking oil and organic waste, with regular checks.
• Vegetarian and vegan options on our menus, with attention to seasonality and to celebrating traditional products.
• Near-total elimination of single-use plastic across our Food & Beverage outlets: glass straws, and silver or glass salt cellars and accessories.

We invite our guests to experience Rome from a different perspective, at a slower and more mindful pace.

• An electric shuttle branded Hassler, used and promoted as one of the hotel’s services.
• An electric vehicle charging station in the garage, dedicated to the hotel’s shuttle.
• Walking itineraries through the heart of Rome.
• Cycling tours, including routes along the Appian Way and through the historic centre.
• Wine and food experiences in the Castelli Romani, including Frascati and Velletri, to discover the wider Lazio region.

Being part of Rome means contributing to its growth. We support cultural and social initiatives that celebrate the local territory and collaborate with local partners who share our values of inclusion, excellence and responsibility.

• Restoration and redevelopment of the Palazzetto, part of the hotel’s historic heritage.
• Support for the CAPS project, dedicated to deaf children.
• Collaboration with suppliers and producers from across the Lazio region.

Sustainability comes to life every day through the people who make the Hassler experience possible. We foster a workplace built on respect, inclusion and professional growth, investing in continuous training on topics such as sustainability, business ethics, gender equality and corporate responsibility. We believe that the everyday commitment of each team member — from reducing waste to using resources responsibly — is what makes truly responsible hospitality possible.
