description The European Ecolabel for tourism accommodation services was created to reward accommodation and environmentally friendly tourists. It is a way of marking good environmental performance and providing quality assurance for tourists choosing a particular structure. The assignment criteria of the ecological label for the tourist housing services are governed by the European Commission Decision no. 287/2003/CE. The work we are proposing is the result of a study by university professors and master students from the management and agro-tourism specialty at the University of Agronomic Sciences and Veterinary Medicine of Bucharest. The study was carried out during 2017-2023 period, the target group consisting of 150 agro-tourist hostels, from the most representative agritourism areas in Romania: Alba, Argeș, Brașov, Bucovina, Buzău, Danube Delta, Harghita, Maramureș, Neamț, Oltenia, Sibiu, members of National Association of Ecological and Cultural Rural Tourism. The study looked at the possibility of implementing the ecolabel for accommodation services in the agro-tourism hostels. Although in 2017 the implementation rate was low – 58%, the results of the year 2023 – 81% are encouraging to implement the Ecolabel in agro-tourism.
