The Sheraton San Diego Hotel & Marina understands the importance of caring for our environment. We've taken meetings to a whole new level with our Green Meeting options, including Paperless Meeting Planning, Sustainable Meeting Services, and Sustainable Food and Beverage Practices. Our hotel is a green building that demonstrates a whole-building approach to sustainability in five key areas: sustainable site development, water efficiency, energy performance and climate protection, materials selection and indoor environmental quality. Sustainable Efforts - Close to 100% of food waste is diverted to the City of San Diego Greenery for composting - Make A Green Choice program rewards guests for choosing to conserve natural resources in their guestroom - Hybrid guest transportation options including our hybrid Tahoe and our electric-powered GEM cars - Water-conserving fixtures with EPA WaterSense label in all guestrooms and public bathrooms, including low-flow toilets, urinals, faucets, showerheads and landscape smart controls to minimize water usage - Fuel Cell Power Technology.
