Environmental Policy
Our Environmental Journey
The Scenic Hotel Group is committed to be a leader in responsible and sustainable tourism.
To achieve this we will continually review and adapt our internal and external practices to minimise any detrimental impact on the environment.
With the cooperation of our guests, staff, business partners and the wider community, we strive for a better tomorrow.
The Scenic Hotel Group Environmental Committee has been setup to implement any new environmental initiatives, administer the group’s environmental plan, review and ensure all introduced procedures are being adhered to.
Sustainable practices that are in place:
- Option for guests to reuse towels, to save water and reduce chemical detergents
- Energy saving light bulbs installed wherever possible
- Recycling programs in place at hotels and corporate offices
- Installation of water saving devices e.g. water reducing showerheads in hotel rooms
- Minimising waste by evaluating operations and ensuring they are as efficient as possible
- Buying New Zealand made to minimise the environmental impact of both production and distribution
- Ongoing training of staff to ensure maximum participation in sustainable practices to improve company’s performance
Scenic Hotel Group is in the process of having hotels accessed on the Qualmark Enviro rating system with the aim to achieve a minimum Qualmark Enviro-Silver rating.
As a company we are determined to ensure New Zealand’s clean green image remains intact for future generations.
