Pan Pacific Hotels Group (PPHG) has announced that all six of its Australian properties have gained accredited certification, after getting all their properties in Singapore also certified. These six properties are the first in the Oceania region to attain this global certification. PPHG is the wholly-owned hotel subsidiary of UOL Group Limited (UOL), one of the leading developers in Singapore.
The six certified Australian properties are: Pan Pacific Melbourne; Pan Pacific Perth; PARKROYAL Darling Harbour Sydney; PARKROYAL Melbourne Airport; PARKROYAL Parramatta Sydney and PARKROYAL Monash Melbourne.
The GSTC Criteria is the global standard for sustainable travel and tourism. The GSTC Industry Criteria for Hotels fosters sustainable tourism practices across four key areas: effective
sustainability planning, maximising social and economic benefits for the local community, enhancing cultural heritage, and reducing negative impact to the environment.
Choe Peng Sum, CEO of Pan Pacific Hotels Group, said: “At PPHG, we believe that enriching guest experiences goes hand in hand with our commitment to sustainability and community engagement. We are incredibly proud that all six of our Australian properties have achieved GSTC Multi-Site Certification, reflecting our dedication to embedding sustainable practices across our portfolio. As an owner-operator Group, we leverage our expertise in operations and development to integrate purposeful sustainability into our hotels, resorts, and serviced suites. Today’s travellers expect sustainable luxury, and we have been at the forefront of this movement for over a decade, starting with PARKROYAL COLLECTION Pickering by UOL in Singapore. This recognition highlights our vision for sustainable tourism and our responsibility to the communities and environments.»
With the certification of its Australian portfolio, PPHG now holds GSTC Certification* across 14 properties, demonstrating its proactive approach to embedding sustainable practices and creating meaningful impacts in the communities it serves. For more information, please visit: www.panpacific.com.
