Welcome to Considerate Hoteliers
A Happy New Year! Considerate Hoteliers is an association of like-minded hoteliers who encourage, assist, motivate and cajole fellow hoteliers to adopt sound and sustainable environmentally friendly and socially responsible policies and practices. We do this through a network of member hotels and by providing events, advice and information for members on environmental and sustainability issues. Each year we also encourage and recognise excellence in the industry through our awards, which are open to all.
Membership is open to hotels and guest houses, from the smallest to the largest and across the grading bands, nationwide, which are committed to the Association's Mission Statement and Environmental Charter and conform to it. See what Considerate Hoteliers can do to improve your business!
Hotelier News
CHA is delighted to announce that Gordon Campbell Gray of Campbell Gray Hotels is the new Chairman of the Considerate Hoteliers Association. GCG's green credentials are beyond doubt; One Aldwych was joint winner of The Considerate Hotel of the Year 2008 and a new eco-hotel is set to open in the south of France in the near future. Recently opened, Le Gray Hotel in Beirut also follows the Campbell Gray mantra of cutting unnecessary waste wherever possible whilst offering exemplary standards of service. He takes over from Liam Lambert who relocated to India as President of Oberoi Hotels.
CH @ Industry Events
CHA was in Cornwall for its next Best Practice Event at the multi-award winning Bedruthan Steps Hotel, Mawgan Porth, Cornwall, on 18 November, following a successful day at West Lodge Park, Hertfordshire in October. The Bedruthan's nearby sister hotel, the newly-opened state-of-the-art 'eco-chic' Scarlet Hotel (pictured), featured as part of 'Green Month' in Caterer & Hotelkeeper, hosted a tour as part of the event and there was an opportunity to find out more about how energy saving was incorporated from scratch.
