Our Sustainable Hotel In San Francisco
Axiom Hotel is a place connected to the past, yet ready and streamlined for the future. In order to create a better version of tomorrow – for our hotel, our guests, and our City – we are a sustainability-driven, LEED Silver certified hotel.
What this means is that we respect the environment, both in our building projects and our day-to-day operations. From using eco-friendly materials during our renovations to implementing sustainable, environmentally responsible practices and initiatives, we are doing our part to decrease our carbon footprint.
San Francisco Green Business Program
LEED Silver Certified
LEED stands for Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design. It is a prestigious certification system that recognizes the best sustainable building practices and design. It was created in 1998 by the US Green Building Council to provide owners and developers with a criterion to achieve a green building rating. Green buildings are designed to reduce the overall impact of the built environment on human health and the natural environment.
Axiom Hotel was evaluated by the LEED building design and construction rating system. Within this system the buildings were rated by five credit categories: Sustainable Sites, Water Efficiency, Energy and Atmosphere, Materials and Resources, and Indoor Environmental Quality.

PressReader delivers an endless stream of top news stories to read, discuss, and share, including full issues of thousands of top magazines and newspapers, just as they appear in print.

- Recycling bins throughout the hotel and guestrooms
- Energy efficient LED and other lights
- Instant hot water heaters (vs. traditional boiler system)
- Dual flush toilets
- Fiber Optic Cabling – takes less power to operate and lasts forever (vs. copper cabling that eventually ends up in landfills)
