Mövenpick Hotels & Resorts in Jordan Earn Green Globe Re-Certification

Green Globe has re-certified all five Mövenpick Hotels & Resorts in Jordan for another year.

The hotels all achieved Green Globe certification in 2011 following a detailed audit based on more than 350 standards covering environmental protection, energy and water conservation, social responsibility, employee sustainability and detailed education programmes.

The five hotels are the Mövenpick Resort & Spa Dead Sea, the Mövenpick Resort & Residences Aqaba, the Mövenpick Resort & Spa Tala Bay Aqaba, the Mövenpick Resort Petra and the Mövenpick Nabatean Castle Hotel.

“Re-certification by Green Globe endorses our on-going commitment to sustainability” said Regional General Manager of Mövenpick Hotels & Resorts in Jordan Peter Hoesli. “We are constantly re-examining our processes and procedures to improve our environmental impact and have implemented extensive trainings across all our hotels, to ensure every employee can play a positive role in sustainable good practice.”

The Mövenpick Hotel & Resorts in Jordan use the latest energy and water saving technologies and state-of-the-art waste management as well as comprehensive action to nurture unique environmental and cultural elements in each hotel location.

The Green Globe re-certification is another milestone in the history of Mövenpick Hotels & Resorts. By the end of 2012 the upscale Swiss hospitality company aims to become the first hotel company in the world to be fully Green Globe certified.

Already all the company’s hotels in the Middle East and Europe have achieved the internationally, independently recognised Green Globe certification and the programme is being implemented across its properties in Asia and Africa.
