KL's Hotel Indigo Leads Green Revolution in Malaysia's Hospitality
Kuala Lumpur, famous for its soaring skyscrapers and luxurious hotels, is poised to challenge its reputation with a new focus on sustainability. The Indigo Kuala Lumpur On The Park hotel, owned by IHG Hotels & Resorts, is spearheading the way in eco-friendly hospitality.
Malaysia, facing significant environmental challenges such as heavy fossil fuel reliance and basic recycling programs, is eager to adopt greener practices. The Indigo hotel is committed to making a difference.
Designed with sustainability in mind, the hotel uses a sensor-based system to conserve energy. Lights and air conditioning automatically switch off when rooms are empty. General Manager Ashleigh Garside confirms this dedication to eco-friendliness.
The hotel's Malaysian owners, Techvance Properties, have played a crucial role. They incorporated energy-saving systems and recycled materials into the hotel's design. Even the central staircase is a testament to this, built from old railway sleepers and reinforced bars salvaged from the construction site.
The Indigo hotel also prioritizes local sourcing for food, beverages, and amenities. This not only reduces its carbon footprint but also supports the local economy.
The Indigo Kuala Lumpur On The Park hotel is setting a new standard for sustainability in Kuala Lumpur. Its eco-friendly initiatives align with Malaysia's goal to reduce economy-wide carbon intensity by 45 percent by 2030. The hotel's commitment to sustainability is a beacon of hope for a greener future in the region.
