The Chic Boutique Hotel Wilshire Goes Green

Cash for your car

A relatively new hotel on the Los Angeles landscape has emerged: The Hotel Wilshire in the heart of the Miracle Mile on the world-famous Wilshire Boulevard. The hotel is extremely convenient for business or pleasure. It is minutes from Beverly Hills, West Hollywood, Hollywood, Century City, easily accessing LA’s hotspots, entertainment venues, restaurants, shopping and rich cultural scenes.

There is much to celebrate as Hotel Wilshire commemorates its one-year anniversary. Beyond its hip, urban décor, the hotel is in the midst of becoming LEED certified by doing its part to preserve resources and be a leader in the L.A. green hotel movement. It’s cool to be green and The Hotel Wilshire takes this seriously. They offer two complimentary charging stations for electric vehicles and partially used bath amenities are donated to Clean The World.

Here are some other ways The Hotel Wilshire is eco-friendly:

  • Organic, cleaning products throughout the hotel
  • Employee uniforms are made from recycled materials and plastic by- products
  • Linens which are a blend of 52% Tencel – a sustainable fabric
  • Carpeting yarns used recycled materials
  • All lighting is compact fluorescent or LED, significantly reducing electrical usage for lighting
  • Alternate transportation and encourages employees and guests to utilize our complimentary bike racks and modes of public transportation
  • Complimentary water bottles are made from 100% recycled plastic which gives it a 65% smaller carbon footprint than regular PET Bottles
  • Guest amenity packaging uses 50% of recycled materials for soap wrappers, 85% recycled materials on soap and accessory cartons and printing with soy- based inks. All of the plastic packaging is biodegradable plastic

You can rest easy knowing your stay at one of The Hotel Wilshire 55 Guestrooms, 19 Suites, or the rooftop Penthouse Suite is eco-conscious.

When it’s time to dine, the rooftop experience at the hotel’s restaurant, The Roof on Wilshire with its vibrant American cuisine and jaw-dropping panoramic views of the Hollywood Hills, is a must-visit. Experience cuisine created by celebrity Chef Eric Greenspan with innovative and creative twists on classic comfort foods.  Maybe you’d just like to meet up with friends for a drink, The Roof on Wilshire also has a bar with plenty of fire pit or poolside lounge seating. Cocktails offered are both classic and contemporary creations.
