Another eco-proof point in which the hotel paved the way for others of its kind in the UAE, was the introduction of zero single-use plastic across the entire hotel, launched in 2022.
One of the other key initiatives the property is currently implementing is Winnow, a cutting-edge technology that helps to minimize food wastage, thereby contributing to a more sustainable future. In addition, the hotel has undertaken energy conservation initiatives by replacing all lights and bulbs with LED technology. This transition significantly reduces energy consumption and helps mitigate the environmental impact associated with traditional lighting methods.
