Eligibility conditions
The project must concern group accommodation in the Grand Est with a minimum capacity of 40 beds: holiday village, tourist residence, family holiday home, holiday centre, international residential centre or youth hostel.

Centres belonging to a works council are excluded, as are projects that keep oil as the main energy source after works. The review favours projects that create or maintain jobs and those that improve environmental performance.
What the scheme covers
Eligible projects: group accommodation projects with at least 40 beds in the Grand Est region — holiday villages, tourist residences, family holiday homes, holiday centres, international residential centres, youth hostels. Priority is given to investment of economic interest, with measurable job retention or creation after the works, and to facilities that are or are moving towards being exemplary in sustainable development. Group accommodation projects whose main energy source remains oil after the works are not eligible. Eligible costs: works carried out by specialist companies (not the project owner itself) that add quality to the group accommodation offer, with eligible costs above €125,000 excluding VAT; architect’s or project manager’s fees; all costs of creating or improving a swimming pool, spa, Finnish bath, sauna or hammam, only if the equipment installed meets sustainable development objectives, with technical justification (processes, materials, operating conditions, etc.) of the water and energy savings achieved in use after the works; the cost of the environmental approach procedure or the Destination d’Excellence label with the certifying body; costs of developing a digital offer, up to €5,000 of eligible costs. Not eligible: furniture (except fitted kitchens or fixed bathroom elements); equipment; non-fixed decorative elements; bedding; routine maintenance works; invoices for materials; property and land acquisitions; regulatory investment (compliance works alone).
