About the award

This award recognises a clear commitment to sustainability, demonstrated through good practice and policy to make a positive contribution to reducing impact on the environment.

Malmaison & Hotel du Vin demonstrate how sustainability can be embedded across a diverse hospitality group through a clear strategy, measurable action and strong governance. The group is also strong in responsible procurement and supply chain engagement, supported by Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) validation, a supplier sustainability programme and a commitment to achieve Net Zero by 2040. Headline achievements include sourcing 100% renewable electricity, reducing carbon emissions and waste, tackling single-use plastics and supporting biodiversity initiatives across its estate. Sustainability is reinforced through colleague engagement and community partnerships, extending its positive impact beyond hotel operations. By combining ambitious environmental targets with responsible purchasing and meaningful supplier engagement, the group shows a mature, evidence-based approach, using its scale and influence to drive positive change.
