Dubai, UAE; 25 September 2024:  In a remarkable step towards sustainable hospitality, Central Hotels & Resorts has unveiled a comprehensive set of eco-friendly initiatives, reinforcing its commitment to reducing environmental impact while elevating the guest experience.

In line with its ongoing commitment to sustainability, Central Hotels & Resorts has implemented several innovative energy-saving solutions.

The brand has also completed its transition to LED lighting, further lowering energy usage and enhancing the ambiance across all properties. Auto shut-off mechanisms have been added to operational equipment, minimizing energy waste when devices are not in active use.
