Özet
Focusing on accommodation buildings in the context of environmental sustainability, the expectations of the users from the hotels they stay in the context of environmental sensitivity are questioned besides their opinions on the concept of sustainability in this study. The questionnaire prepared for Edirne is based on the criteria of sustainable architecture and green star certificate. A total of 213 people participated in the questionnaire which was applied by random sampling method in three hotels in different locations in Edirne city center and currently not having green star certificate. Within the scope of the survey, the following findings regarding the expectations of accommodation buildings were reached: a) It is important for users that the hotel has environmental approaches; the green star certificate is a reason for preference. b) The basic expectation from the sustainable accommodation buildings is that they should be designed within the scope of ecological architectural criteria (renewable energy, recyclable material, waste management, heat insulation, water saving, etc.). Another important finding of the study is that users have a tendency to change their standard expectations in order to increase the number of ecological accommodation buildings. This study provides incentive information for hospitality sector operators in order to direct their existing buildings to a green certificate. © Peter Lang AG 2020.
