What REST Accreditation Means for Your Stay at Our Hotels

 

We’ve got some brilliant news to share. Six of our hotels – The Crown London Hotel, Pinewood Hotel in Wilmslow, The Stuart in Derby, Casa Mere in Knutsford, Fortune Hotel in Huddersfield, and The Milestone Hotel in Peterborough – have officially received REST Accreditation.

So… what exactly is REST, and why should you care as a guest?

Well, REST stands for Responsible, Ethical, and Sustainable Tourism, and we think it’s a pretty big deal. It means we’re not just offering you a clean room, a comfy bed, and great service – we’re doing all that while taking care of the planet, supporting our teams, and giving back to the communities around us.

Why REST Matters to You

When you check in, we want you to know that your stay is doing good behind the scenes. Here’s how:

It’s Responsible

We’re actively involved in local community projects and charities, and we’re proud to support independent makers, local food, and regional suppliers wherever we can.

It’s Ethical

Our teams are the heart of our hotels – so we’re committed to fair treatment, wellbeing, inclusivity, and equal opportunities for every member of staff.

It’s Sustainable

From energy-saving systems to reduced water use and smarter waste management, we’re working hard to shrink our footprint without cutting corners on your comfort.

It’s Hospitality That Feels Better

This isn’t about ticking boxes or putting up a few ‘eco-friendly’ signs. REST is about genuinely doing better – and we think you’ll feel the difference during your stay. Whether you’re here for a quick business trip, a weekend break, or a special occasion, you can relax knowing you’re staying somewhere that actually cares.

That might mean:

Fresh, locally sourced food and drink at breakfast

Rooms designed to reduce energy waste (without compromising on warmth or comfort)

Staff who love what they do – and feel supported to do it well

Come Stay with Us

So whether you’re planning a relaxing countryside weekend or a last-minute overnight for work, you can enjoy a stay that feels good and does good.
