The Ambrose Puts the G in Green

The Ambrose seamlessly blends both modern sophistication and eco-friendliness. The boutique property is the first-ever U.S. hotel to earn LEED-EB certification by the U.S. Green Building Council (USGBC). This prestigious certification required the hotel to meet strict prerequisites in eco-friendly exterior maintenance, water- and energy efficiency, materials and resources, and indoor air quality.

The award-winning green hotel goes one step further by composting, using ecologically-responsible cleaning products, reusing and recycling.

Attention to "Green", Inside and Out

Outstanding green features include:

*Recycling containers in every guest room
*Preferred hybrid vehicle parking
*Paid volunteer opportunities for staff members
*”Green” information available throughout hotel
*Cute “London-taxi” service for guests, powered by bio-diesel fuel

The Courtyard Features Walking Paths and a Koi Pond
