Real West Travel Inc., a Colorado-based online travel service, is gearing up to launch an entirely new online booking system for eco-friendly hotels in the western United States. Consumers can will be able to select from all hotels, B&Bs, ranches and other lodges in the western United States that have earned a minimum eco-friendly rating based on a 13-point system.

The site, www.realwesttravel.com, will offer the option of booking directly with properties that demonstrate a positive effort to help the environment.

Listing and setup on the service is free for properties, as Real West Travel works on a commission-based model. Properties will be rated on a 1 to 5 scale system and recognized only for the eco-friendly measures they choose or are able to take. Rooms, rates and inventory can easily be added or changed by the hotel staff with a secure login and password for access to the Real West Travel booking system.

Real West Travel Inc. is a for profit business with a purpose beyond profit. They are advancing one method to help enable us to maintain our standard of living while, at the same time, protect the resources of our planet. Real West Travel Inc. will actively market those lodgers who are making a difference while showing others in the industry that going eco-friendly is not just good ethics but good business too.
