"Staff was great"

Had an issue with our safe. Gym is offsite at the golf clubhouse. Staff was very friendly and we enjoyed the wildlife that was present.

Green Sustainability

Green Engage, our system-wide approach to sustainability is helping our hotels to manage their environmental impacts. What is Green Engage? Green Engage is our innovative online sustainability system, designed to help hotels reduce energy costs, with hotels achieving energy savings of up to 25%. The system, which has a LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) endorsement, allows hotels to track, measure and report on their energy, water and waste, and recommends actions that will cut energy bills without compromising the guest experience. We're the world's first hotel company to be awarded a LEED endorsement for an existing hotel programme, Green Engage, further cementing our place as an industry leader in sustainability. Over 1,500 of our hotels have signed up and using Green Engage. We invest in the tool on an ongoing basis making regular updates and improving the functionality of the tool. For example, we've just launched the automatic data feeds feature. Over 500 hotels now get utility data automatically updated into Green Engage so they can focus on analysing the reports and implementing Green Solutions. Green Engage is also now linked to the Automated Wheel so you can see how your hotel is tracking against your KPOs. How does Green Engage work? Hotels input their site data into Green Engage. The system automatically generates reports to help them understand their impacts. Green Engage then advises hotels on the actions they can take to reduce their impacts. Green Engage provides owners with advice on every aspect of the hotel lifecycle from picking a suitable site, to selecting the correct lighting for the hotel through to choosing responsible cleaning materials and providing staff training on sustainability.
