United for the conservation of Andean Bear

Alliance with WWF for the preservation of the Andean bear

At bh Quinta we are proud to be part of a strategic alliance with WWF Colombia, aimed at protecting the Andean bear, an emblematic species of our mountains and a symbol of Colombian biodiversity. This collaboration reinforces our commitment to sustainability and responsible tourism, through concrete actions. This alliance is an opportunity to protect what makes us unique as a country and reaffirm our role as a conscious hotel chain that leaves a positive footprint in each territory.

Purpose-driven tourism - Conservation in action.

Diversity that is experienced in every experience

At Mercure bh El Retiro, we believe in authentic hospitality, where everyone is welcome and celebrated just as they are. That's why we are a member of the Chamber of Diversity and are in the process of certification with Friendly BIZ, reaffirming our commitment to creating diverse, equitable, and inclusive spaces.

More than hotels, we are a place where difference adds value, where equality is felt, and where inclusion transforms every stay into a memorable experience.

Our purpose is clear: to offer you quality service with warmth, in safe, respectful, and open environments for everyone.

Default No Cleaning: a simple gesture, a real impact

As part of our Green Guests movement, at bh la quinta we implement the Default No Cleaning initiative, which transforms sustainable hospitality. With this program, daily cleaning services are provided only upon the guest's request, reducing water, energy, and chemical consumption, thus contributing to the care of the planet. This action aligns with our partnership with WWF, inviting each guest to protect the Andean Bear, a symbol of our biodiversity.

At bh la quinta, we believe that sustainability is a choice that enriches the experience and leaves a positive footprint with every stay.

Saving the Amazon: we plant life in the heart of the planet

At bh hotels, we believe that hospitality can also be a way to care for the planet. That's why we joined Saving the Amazon, an organization that protects and restores the Colombian Amazon by planting native trees alongside indigenous communities.

Through this alliance, we contribute to biodiversity conservation, offsetting our carbon footprint, and strengthening local communities. Each tree planted in the name of our hotels is georeferenced and monitored, ensuring its growth and care for more than three years.
