• Supporting Local Communities

  • Partner with local suppliers

  • Work with local charities and projects - to ensure that tourism directly benefits the people who call our destination home.

• Protecting Nature

  • From water of Leith clean-ups to rewilding conservation project, we actively invest in preserving the natural beauty that makes travel so rewarding.

  • Tree of life partnership - For every 2 delegates attending on of our Green Daily Delegate Rate meetings we plant 1 tree in our grove.

• Encouraging Sustainable Choices

  • We make it easy for our guests to choose greener options—whether it’s selecting items of our menu based on our Kilmato carbon footprint information on our menus

  • Provide water stations in our hotel and conference centre - to encourage our guests to filling their own water bottle during their stay or conference

  • Promote local public transportation options and walking tours
