Climate-friendly holiday in Hochgurgl
Sustainability at Hotel Riml
- Our mountain world is our greatest feel-good factor. And that is why it is important to us to keep it as pure as it is now. That is why we at Hotel Riml focus on climate-friendly holidays. Through many measures such as waste separation, preservation and activation of regional cycles or the expansion of our photovoltaic system, the first steps for a climate-friendly future have been taken.

green power
For our natural world
Photovoltaic & 100% green power
Sustainable energy is important to us, because our environment and our nature are a unique present! The electricity generation in Hotel Riml runs exclusively on 100% green electricity from Tyrolean hydropower & the newly built photovoltaic system.
Overview of our savings
- Within just two month, a total of 40.827,2 kg of CO2 emissions could be saved only through the new photovoltaic system.
Converted, that is 1.219 newly planted trees.
Environmentally friendly and communicative
A touch of nostalgia!
Our trusted keys instead of an electronic room locking system
Instead of an electronic room locking system, the Hotel Riml continues to use classic room keys. For some, this decision may seem "retro" at first but, for the hotel, it is a sustainable solution that also promotes communication. Hotel guests can collect their key from reception at any time and receive interesting information and tips at the same time. Compared to a locking system that requires over 400 batteries in a winter season just for the room doors, the classic key saves costs and energy. A win-win situation for everyone!
Hot water preparation
Hot water heating in the Hotel Riml
In-house solar system
The solar system at the Riml Ski & Wellness Resort is used to heat water and to support the heating system, thus making a significant contributionfor wellness & service water treatment, in particular it is used to heat our pool facilities.
With the implemented heating optimisation, Hotel Riml relieves the climate by 73.17 tons of CO2 annually and makes a sustainable contribution to climate and environmental protection in Austria.
In Hochgurgl, sustainable wellness enjoyment awaits you at 2,200 metres - directly in the Gurgl ski area.
Electromobility
Secure & fast charge electric vehicles
E-charging station at Hotel Riml
Electric vehicles are becoming increasingly important, and with them the demand for hotels with charging stations. It's no wonder that more and more travellers with e-cars are drawn to us in the Ötztal. With good reason, because with us you can refill your empty energy storage while at the same time your e-vehicle is refuelled "green".
