Small and family run „ECO Hotels“ can be recognized by the eco-labels logo 'heart with a leaf' and are known as objects that lead the greatest environmental concerns in their area.

Croatian eco-label for tourist accommodation for small and family-run hotels follows the structure of the European Eco-label Eco-flower. Eco-certificate confirms that the property is

using their energy rationally, that there are certain procedures each hotel must follow to prevent unnecessary loss of energy and resources.

Building must have all the necessary checkpoints and means to prevent energy loss. Also, the certificate relates to sorting and selective collection of waste generated as a by-product in the production process within the hotel.

The eco hotel OMH dishes are prepared according to traditional recipes, from domestic products grown in the area where the hotel is located.

Eco label implies spreading environmental awareness among staff, hotel guests and all those who come into contact with their services.

The project was created as a collaboration of the Association of Small and family-run hotels, and the Ministry of Tourism.
