Supportive, alternative, eco-responsible, fair, inclusive: let us explain our commitments which are also about cooperation, partnerships and support.

Travel differently in Paris

The Zazie is developing an alternative to urban trips, an off the beaten track experience, anchored in its neighborhood and in Eastern Paris.

Visitors all have their own, good reasons to come to Paris: to visit a magnificent and moving city, to meet relatives and party, to encounter something that feels important to them, and also often to work, to get a training or for a medical appointment… For each traveler, in cooperation with local players, artisans, traders, guides and social entrepreneurs, the Zazie Hotel team strives to facilitate access to a more Parisian, intimate, more human Paris.

Zazie is (almost) like home: a shared fridge, microwave and dishes, games (chess, backgammon, cards, checkers, dominoes…) in the Zazie Bar, an aperitif to share every evening, and books in all the rooms.

And since we cannot invent tomorrow’s sustainable travel on our own, we cooperate with companies which we encourage you to discover in order to enrich your stay: les Oiseaux de passage, FairTrip,  and to travel else where : GreenGo or ATES..

Eco-responsible travel truly

Zazie reduces the environmental impact of your stay. Each night corresponds on average to 4.1 kg of CO2 emissions.* We achieve this with a demanding circular economy policy: reduce, reuse, recycle, repair, and forgo!

Reduce our water and energy consumption. Low-energy light bulbs, motion detectors, adjusted linen replacement frequency, water recirculation loops, flow restrictors for taps and showers (Thanks Gjosa !).

Reduce and recycle our waste. Zero single-use plastics, zero-waste cooking, complete recycling, including organic waste and unusable textiles.

Prioritize purchasing responsible products. By offering organic or local food products for breakfasts (Mainly Biocoop) and meals, and by using eco-labeled cleaning products (Filfa).

Recover and reuse as much of our purchases as possible. Our appliances (washing machines, phones, televisions) are refurbished and given a second life under the supervision of qualified professionals (Sebi, Boréal Hygiène, Wisyo). Our furniture is entirely sourced, repaired, and repurposed, with the exception of beds and textiles for hygiene and comfort reasons. We do our laundry on-site.

Sometimes this means foregoing certain products, solutions, services, or practices. For example, at Zazie, there is no air conditioning. We prefer more environmentally friendly solutions (ventilation, insulation, fans).

Share our eco-friendly practices: use our waste sorting solutions, choose your linen changes, and drink from a reusable water bottle. Insulate, turn off your lights, measure, and save!

We thank our service providers and suppliers who, along with us, are committed to protecting the Parisian environment.
