Oak Brook Luxury Hotel Green Tip
Sample public transportation over renting a car.
In many major cities public transportation is fairly good, especially if you're near the major population centers. To make the larger metro areas more pedestrian favorable most have developed a good grid of light rail, elevated rail, shuttle, bus, train, trolley, subway and taxi services. Afford the public transportation systems a try and don't rent a car unless it's compulsory. Why not walk when nearly all of what you necessitate is probably close to your Oak Brook hotel. If the length is under 10 miles rent a cycle. Treat yourself to a new way of getting around, you may just find you like it!

Secure the "Don't Bother Us" sign on the door.
Give room service a call and inform them you won't be needing their services. Water - energy - gas - chemicals - and more are expended each time your Oak Brook hotel room is serviced. Sheets and towels are cleaned requiring water, detergent, electricity, and gas. The bathroom areas are often cleaned with chemicals. Vacuuming the carpet consumes electricity. Soaps and shampoos replace minimally used bottles and bars, not only being wasteful but also adding to non-biodegradable waste. In most cases daily room service is not actually needed and you'll be helping the environment by not having your room cleaned daily.
