In the hospitality industry, energy costs can be the second biggest outlay after wages. It’s no wonder that hoteliers are always looking for ways to reduce their gas and electricity costs.
Whether you run a small B&B or a large city centre hotel, getting those utility bills down is a constant battle. Want a quick win for your hotel? Switch energy provider with Utility Bidder. We help hotel businesses all over the country to save money. Together, we could reduce your energy bills by as much as 40%.

Heating can contribute significantly to your hotel’s energy consumption. In fact, it can account for over 40% of the energy used in your hotel or B&B. This means there’s plenty of scope to make savings. A good place to start is by ensuring every area of the hotel or guest house is at the right temperature.
Recommended temperatures for hotels | |
Area | Temperature |
Corridors and bedrooms Guest bathrooms Bars and lounges Restaurants and dining rooms Kitchens Laundries | 19–21°C 26–27°C 20–22°C 22–24°C 16–18°C 16–19°C |
Managing heat is particularly important in large hotels. With so many facilities, it’s a good idea to create zoned areas with their own thermostatic controls.
If your budget can stretch to intelligent guest management systems, this could bring energy savings. In fact, you could even recoup your investment in the technology after just a few years.
For smaller venues where that may not be feasible, ask staff to become energy champions for their areas. This will encourage them to take control of their departments, ultimately saving the business money on utilities.
When calculating energy consumption, don’t forget about your housekeeping department. Electrical cleaning equipment and other appliances – including those used in hotel kitchens – can all be big power users. If you can make a switch to energy efficient appliances, you could save on your bills.
There’s so much lighting in hotel business. It can include external signage, reception, corridors, guest rooms, bars, restaurants, function rooms, gyms, kitchens and staff rooms. And if you have people working night shifts, this means yet more lighting. It’s no wonder that lighting makes up at least 25% of your total hotel electricity bill.
However, major savings can be made for all kinds of property types by investing in LED technology. This can now improve on previous lighting products in terms of performance as well as energy efficiency. Getting the right energy efficient lighting solution could even reduce costs by up to a third.

While you can save hundreds of pounds by putting in some simple measures yourself, by far the best savings will come from switching your pubs gas and electricity provider.

Paul Kay was fantastic in securing us a great deal and explaining everything in full. Thanks and would wholeheartedly recommended.
Excellent service from Kenny in the Manchester office, he worked hard to find the best price for me and explained everything along the way.
Will definitely use him again in the future and would recommend.
I spoke to Paul Kay this morning who in the space of 30 mins looks to have halved my salon electric bill, he was personable, knowledgeable and honest. The proof will be seeing if the bills actually reduce and if so I will leave another review but so far an excellent service
I dealt with Utility Bidder over the past couple of days, amazing service and prompt. Paul Kay gave excellent customer service! would highly reccomend.
Without a doubt utility bidder has saved my sanity. They have sorted months of going around in circles with a supplier in under a week.
I would highly recommend to everyone I know.
Had a lovely phone call from Connor this morning, he was very helpful, explained everything very clearing and all I had to do was agree to everything that was suggested and he done the rest! Very happy with the service
I have just worked with Alex from Utility Bidder to sort our electricity contract today. He has got us an excellent price for our charity and it has all been sorted in half an hour (possibly less!). He was extremely helpful. THANK YOU
Had a call from Alex York who within minutes had arranged a new electricity contract with a new supplier. He was extremely courteous, professional and friendly. Highly recommend.
Robert Johnson has just completed my renewal contract with my energy supplier. He was very helpful and very efficient. It’s the first time I have used Utility Bidder and I will definitely use them again and highly recommend them. Thank you for making it so easy.
