Arthouse Hostel |
The Arthouse Hostel is the Worlds First Carbon Neutral hostel.
We have used accurate carbon calculators based on a projected consumption and occupancy, then tripled the requirements to offest the carbon dioxide production.
We have invested in an urban re-forestation in conjunction with Launceston City Council, making our project multi purpose. Unfortunatey, this has been taking too long, so we have planted 60 trees at a property near Mole Creek.
We used regionally specific trees to compliment those already native to the area. We have taken video footage, and will have tha posted soon.
About the Hostel
The Arthouse Hostel was originally built in 1888 as a trades hotel. It served beers on the waterfront for many years, and was a prominant feature on Launcestons bustling riverbank.
The waterfront was such a feature of the city that the Queens procession passed by, heading over the Tamar Street bridge, past what is now the Inveresk Rail Museum and the Queen Victoria Museum & Art Gallery.
