Grand Hyatt Kuwait, a luxurious oasis in the heart of the city, is not only renowned for its exceptional hospitality but also for its unwavering commitment to sustainable practices. The hotel has implemented a range of initiatives aimed at conserving resources, reducing waste, and promoting eco-friendly practices.

Use of green cleaning products

One of the cornerstones of Grand Hyatt Kuwait's sustainability efforts is its use of green cleaning products. Partnering with Diversey Middle East, the hotel exclusively utilizes eco-friendly, non-toxic cleaning products that are both effective and environmentally responsible. By choosing these certified products, the hotel ensures that its cleaning operations have minimal impact on the environment while maintaining the highest standards of cleanliness and hygiene.

Reducing waste

Grand Hyatt Kuwait is dedicated to reducing waste throughout its operations. The hotel opts for reusable cleaning tools such as microfiber cloths, sponges, and mop heads, eliminating the need for disposable alternatives. This conscious choice not only minimizes waste but also contributes to cost savings in the long run.

Water conservation

The hotel implements various measures to conserve water, including promptly fixing leaks, installing low-flow faucets and showerheads, and adopting water-saving practices in its daily operations. By turning off taps while cleaning sinks, bathtubs, and shower areas, the hotel significantly reduces water consumption without compromising on quality or guest satisfaction.

Energy efficiency

Grand Hyatt Kuwait prioritizes energy efficiency to reduce its electricity consumption. The hotel has transitioned to energy-efficient appliances and lighting, with a particular emphasis on LED bulbs for their superior energy efficiency. 

Green landscaping

The commitment to sustainability extends beyond the hotel's interior to its outdoor spaces as well. Grand Hyatt Kuwait maintains a sustainable garden by using native plants and practicing water-efficient landscaping techniques. It also avoids chemical pesticides and fertilizers to minimise its ecological footprint.

Recycling and proper disposal

Recycling and proper waste disposal are integral components of Grand Hyatt Kuwait's sustainability initiatives. The hotel has implemented a comprehensive recycling system to ensure that materials such as paper, plastic, glass, and metal are recycled responsibly.
