The Hilton University of Florida Hotel and Conference Center is one of the first hotels in Florida to be designated as a green hotel. In order to receive the designation, the property had to implement a number of state of the art procedures to conserve water, electricity, heating and cooling energy and waste.
“Since implementing these eco-friendly programs, we have been able to recycle an average of 2.7 tons per month — or a total of more than 100 tons — since 2004,” said Nanci Haley, general manager. “As we continue to review and assess additional programs, we hope to double these results in the coming years.”
The seven-story Hilton University of Florida Conference Center is situated in the southwest corner of the University of Florida campus at 1714 SW 34th Street. The hotel boasts an IACC Conference Center, as well as 25,000 square feet of meeting space, indoor pool, fitness center, laundry/valet service, area shuttle transportation and business center.
