A legacy of care
Caring for the environment, people and how we do business
So how do we build a legacy of care? By staying true to our mission and values, we commit to creating a positive impact on our people, guests, and communities. We ensure that our business practices remain ethical and responsible as we step boldly into the next chapter of our journey.

FAIR TREATMENT
Creating a more sustainable world together
We are committed to making a positive impact on our communities and the planet, actively contributing to the fight against climate change. By focusing on preserving vital resources like water, biodiversity, and ecosystems, we aim to create a more sustainable future, ensuring these life-giving elements are safeguarded for generations to come.
Caring for our people and communities
We foster inclusive work environments where our people can thrive to reach legendary and extraordinary career aspirations. We promote and prioritise the wellbeing of both our employees and guests and are actively involved in our communities to help create equitable, promising futures for everyone. Together, we aim to make a lasting and positive impact.
Caring about how we do business
We recognise that our decisions directly impact both people and the planet. That’s why we are committed to upholding the highest ethical and environmental standards, wherever we operate. Our goal is to consistently exceed legislative requirements, setting a new benchmark for responsible business practices around the world.
We’ve listened to our guests about reducing our impact on the environment. To help us in this mission, every guest is asked if they’re happy to have their bed linen and towels changed every other day, rather than daily. All bathrooms have a beautiful selection of sustainably sourced toiletries in hand-cast porcelain, which has significantly reduced our use of plastic. We also highlight a commitment to seasonal produce and healthy eating options through an exclusive wellness menu at each hotel.
