Proud to be on the journey with Dalata Hotel Group 'redefining hospitality for a sustainable future'. #Sustainability #GreenTourism
For us, sustainability is more than a commitment—it’s woven into every detail of our daily operations. From guest amenities to kitchen practices, here’s how we’re making a difference: We’re supporting low-carbon travel by offering EV charging stations at key locations, making it easier for guests to choose eco-friendly options. Reducing emissions starts with each journey, and we’re here to support our guests wherever we can. Our food waste reduction programs are helping us to operate more sustainably while keeping waste to a minimum. With thoughtful planning and a commitment to composting and recycling, we’re making sure that what isn’t needed doesn’t go to waste. We’ve introduced a range of biodegradable and plastic-free guest amenities to minimize environmental impact without sacrificing quality. From recyclable containers to compostable packaging, every detail has been designed with the planet in mind. Together, these initiatives are part of our ongoing journey to redefine hospitality for a sustainable future. We’re committed to creating positive change—one charge, one meal, and one stay at a time. #DalataDifference #GreenTourism

Many congratulations on your Gold Award. #ResponsibleTourism #SustainableTourism #GreenTourism #Hospitality
We are delighted to announce that Holiday Inn Belfast City Centre has been awarded Green Tourism Gold! On top of our already ongoing efforts to make each stay as sustainable as possible, this new certification was possible thanks to the following actions: - Screening suppliers for their own green policies (MSC, free-range, fairtrade and RSPCA certified). - Removal of all single use plastic bottles in meeting rooms and only providing stationery on request. - A brand new herb and vegetable garden, with the produce being used for cocktails and food, as well as the installation of bug and bird boxes to support local biodiversity. We are also trying each and everyday to change the guests and team members' mindset on sustainability by sharing our actions and policies online and internally, and with the introduction of a green committee with staff from every department. #HolidayInn Holiday Inn IHG Hotels & Resorts #HolidayInnBelfastCityCentre Taroon Missry Nicolle Loughran Simon Anderson-Crothers Vicky Green vikrant tyagi Rajesh RANA Jacqueline Canning MCIPD Visit Belfast Business Events
