The best type of green roof for the hotel's space, given the limitation of supporting only about 20 pounds per square foot, is an extensive green roof.

Extensive green roofs are typically lightweight, require less soil depth, and are designed to be low-maintenance, making them suitable for structures with weight limitations. In contrast, intensive green roofs generally require more soil and support, leading to higher weight loads.
