PAPERA aims to build a new hotel booking platform, exploring the development of systematic sustainable solutions to enhance the green travel experience in hotels. The key features are integrating physical eco-friendly practices with a digital system to promote environmentally conscious behaviors among hotel guests. The digital interface implements a sustainable hotel ranking system, amenities focused on sustainability, and a green credit system designed to guide and reward customer behaviors.

PAPERA introduces a groundbreaking approach to the hotel booking experience, merging digital innovation with eco-conscious practices to revolutionize the way travelers engage with sustainability. This platform stands out as a novel solution in the travel industry by not only offering a booking service but also fostering a culture of environmental responsibility among hotel guests. The critical problem it addresses is the lack of a platform to encourage and reward both hotel-sustainable amenities and services and customer choices during hotel Booking. Traditionally, travelers have had limited means to assess the environmental impact of their accommodation choices or to be incentivized to make greener decisions. PAPERA's solution is twofold: it implements a sustainable hotel ranking system, allowing users to make informed decisions based on a hotel's green practices, and introduces a green credit system that rewards eco-friendly behaviors, effectively turning sustainability into a rewarding experience. This innovative blend of physical and digital eco-friendly practices positions PAPERA as an explorer in advancing the travel and hospitality sector towards a more sustainable future.
