BREEAM certification for the Wyndham Garden Wismar: Sustainable comfort at the Baltic Sea

The Wyndham Garden Wismar at Bellevue 15 in Gägelow has received BREEAM certification, thereby strengthening Aroundtown's sustainable real estate portfolio in the Baltic Sea region. Just a few minutes from the Baltic Sea beaches, the modern 4-star hotel welcomes guests with 177 rooms that convey a maritime flair. The two-storey building complex includes a spacious swimming and spa area as well as a newly equipped conference and event area that can accommodate up to 350 people.

Located near the Hanseatic city of Wismar and the Baltic seaside resort of Boltenhagen, the hotel is an ideal starting point for beach visits, water sports and North German recreation. The coastal landscapes and traditional beach chairs can be reached in a few minutes by car.

BREEAM (Building Research Establishment Environmental Assessment Method) is one of the world's leading certifications for sustainable buildings and assesses the ecological footprint of properties. With the BREEAM certification of the Wyndham Garden Wismar, Aroundtown is underlining its commitment to implementing environmentally friendly and resource-efficient standards in its hotel portfolio. Around 50 per cent of Aroundtown's office buildings in Germany are already certified, and the entire commercial portfolio in the Netherlands also carries green certifications.

With the certification of the hotel near Wismar, Aroundtown continues to focus on responsible real estate development that meets both ecological and tourism requirements.
