As one of the largest consumer industries, hotels embracing green policy is not only a bandwagon but it is a necessary decision to save the sick planet. Hotels use up an enormous amount of energy due to the business nature hence we have to ensure our green message is spread across to our guests as well and together we push beyond the effectiveness to the maximum.
To have it official, the sustainability of our green policy is proudly certified by Green Globe Certification. Green Globe Certification is the travel and tourism industries' worldwide certification label for sustainable management and operations. Accredited auditors have to perform independent evaluation for our hotel and make sure we are able to achieve in the following spectrums: (A) Sustainable management, (B) Social/Economic, (C) Cultural heritage and (D) Environmental.
To show our commitment in green practice, a sustainability management plan is in place adopting the Green Globe Certification Standards. View the Plan.
Love travel. Love our globe.
