Commitment to Sustainability

Responsible tourism with a positive impact

At Lodging Apartments, we have deep ties to Barcelona, the city where we were founded. We are committed to its present and future, which is why we advocate for responsible, high-quality tourism that contributes positively to its economy and society and is respectful of the environment.

Thus, in our day-to-day operations, we not only generate employment and wealth for the city, but we also strive to ensure that each of our actions is geared toward minimizing environmental impact. We take our responsibility as leaders in the vacation rental sector very seriously and act as agents of change, improving our processes to make them more efficient and assuming our role in involving owners and tourists in this vision.

We work from the inside out for conscious tourism that is in balance with the environment.

Biosphere certification

Because we are committed to the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), we renew our Biosphere Committed certification every year, awarded by the Responsible Tourism Institute.

This seal recognizes our ongoing efforts to integrate environmental, social, and economic sustainability criteria into everything we do.
