Sunyata Eco Hotel is a self sustainable green building constructed with a cradle to grave approach for net zero carbon emission goal. The hotel has 11 rooms, a small movie hall, a restaurant and store. This can accommodate up to 25 guests and caters to all type of budgets customers can choose depending on the grade of the rooms. This gives us the opportunity to reach people across all economic spectrum and come and experience a green stay and educate them on the sustainability aspects they can take home and employ in their own lives or build projects.
All this and more done within a 6000 sq feet of land area and 15000 sq feet of built up area thus achieve minimalistic design to achieve maximum sustainable initiatives.
