Aspects’s Gold from Green

PREM Group’s four-star Aspect Hotel Park West has been awarded Gold Accreditation with Green Tourism.

Green Tourism operates a globally-recognised certification programme which audits the commitment of tourism businesses who are actively working to become more sustainable. Their environmental assessors give professional advice on areas such as reducing energy use, saving water, ethical buying, staying local and promoting biodiversity.

The hotel is proud to offer a low carbon footprint of just 1.32kg of CO2-e per guest night, significantly lower than the 29.71kg of CO2-e international hotel benchmark.

Commenting on the award, Andrea Wallace, general manager, said:  

“We are delighted to have been awarded Gold Accreditation with Green Tourism in recognition of our sustainability efforts. This was truly a team effort, which we continue to improve and learn from through our everyday operations. In an age where the environment has truly become an emotive topic, green travel is on the rise with guests opting for eco-friendly accommodation options. We’re delighted that our guests are supporting our efforts by re-using towels, opting out of housekeeping service and unplugging devices when they are leaving the room. Every guest room includes an energy saving guide which has hints and tips on how guests can help to reduce energy and conserve water.”

In addition, the hotel offers serviced apartments, complimentary parking, and a recently refurbished ground floor consisting of six meeting rooms with the capacity of 2 – 80 delegates, and the Willow Restaurant & Bar.
