Sustainability in Bomba
At Sokos Hotels, we work towards happier travel.
Green Key & Sustainable Travel Finland
Since 2017, we have been a Green Key certified hotel. Since 2020, we have participated in the Sustainable Travel Finland (STF) program.
The Green Key certificate indicates that our hotel is a pioneer in environmental responsibility, as its strict criteria based on the UN’s sustainable development goals exceed basic legal and regulatory requirements. Sustainability efforts are made in various areas, including the environment (e.g., water, electricity, waste) and other aspects of responsibility. As a Green Key destination, we are committed to improving our operations every year from an environmental and sustainability perspective. By choosing a Green Key hotel, you are promoting responsible and sustainable tourism!
Companies that have received the Sustainable Travel Finland (STF) recognition meet the criteria created by Visit Finland, which promotes tourism and considers economic, ecological, social, and cultural sustainability. The STF label aims to secure the future of the tourism industry through sustainable development. With this label, we communicate our responsibility to our international guests as well.
Part of a large sustainability family
Like other Sokos Hotels, we adhere to the S Group’s common energy-saving goals and strongly invest in renewable energy production. Our hotel follows the S Group’s common sustainability principles and guidelines in procurement. More about the sustainability of Sokos Hotels and the S Group.
In the 2025 Sustainable Brand Index survey, which maps perceptions of responsibility, Finns rated Sokos Hotels as Finland's most responsible hotel chain brand for the 13th consecutive time.
Small choices during your stay at Bomba:
- Choose electronic check-in. You can check in using our self-service kiosk (IPA), where your traveller registration form is completed electronically instead of on paper. Our team will be happy to assist you with using the kiosk.
- Choose when your room needs cleaning. If you are staying with us for several nights, your room is not automatically cleaned every day. Interim cleaning is available upon request.
- Reuse your towels if you wish. During interim cleaning, we replace towels that have been left on the floor. If you would like to continue using your towel, simply leave it hanging on the hook.
- Sort waste in your room. In addition to a general waste bin, your room has a separate green bin for biowaste. You can leave empty bottles and cans on the table, and our team will sort them for recycling.
- Take what you can enjoy at breakfast. You are welcome to eat as much as you like from our breakfast buffet. We encourage you to take a suitable amount at a time and return for more if you wish. This helps us limit food waste from guests’ plates.
- Reuse your breakfast dishes if convenient. When returning to the buffet, you can continue using the same plate, glass or cup. Fewer dishes mean less dishwashing is needed.
