Accessibility
Making our hotels accessible is another important aspect of Scandic’s sustainability program. In fact, Scandic is the only hotel company that provides detailed information about how accessible each hotel is.
Scandic accessibility standard
We were the first hotel to develop an accessibility standard to guarantee that our hotels are as welcoming to all as we say. We drew up our 159-point Accessibility Standard after carefully following the route guests take from the parking lot into and through our hotels, working closely with organizations that represent people with accessibility needs as well as guests with mobility issues and observant team members.
Although we don’t own our hotel properties, we can still influence how accessible they are. Of the 159 points in Scandic’s Accessibility Standard, 105 are mandatory at all hotels and all 159 points apply when renovating or building new hotels.
Over the years, our accessibility initiatives have been recognized globally and we are continuing to work to ensure that everyone always feels welcome at Scandic.
Everyone should feel welcome at Scandic
When we design hotels, we implement smart solutions that make all guests happy. We prioritize accessibility in both new and renovated hotels and we’re constantly improving our standard. And it’s not just technical solutions that matter to us – we’re equally committed to showing care and consideration so everyone can enjoy their stay with us.
