Bangkok Marriott Resort & Spa receives 'Green Hotel' award
The Bangkok Marriott Resort & Spa announced its achievement in receiving the ASEAN Green Hotel Standard Award. The award recognizes the resort commitment in being environmentally friendly and having adopted energy conservation measures.

The ASEAN Green Hotel Standard is based on 11 criterias: environmental policies, use of green products; collaboration with the community and local organizations; human resource development; solid waste management; energy efficiency; water efficiency; air quality management, noise pollution control, waste water treatment management and chemical substance disposal management.
