Abstract: International tourism has evolved over the years, adapting to the changes that have occurred both in terms of the environment, but also in terms of societal demands. Thus, applying the principles of sustainable development has become a priority not only for hotelier, but for each of accommodation owners, of any kind. Those types of investments have the role to protect the natural environment and some financial savings as a result from implementing new technologies. Globally there are already some successful examples that can become landmarks for those who are interested in this aspect. This paper aims to analyze a new concept, that of "green hotels" and analyze some of the successful examples, the conclusions being made available to those who are interested in adapting to whatever is new and efficient in this area.
