Our Goal
At The Gonville Hotel, we are committed to leading the hospitality sector towards a sustainable and responsible future. Our mission is clear: to decarbonize quickly, credibly, and consistently, aligning with global net zero commitments. With this in mind, we have signed up to the Green Tourism certification programme to help us to promote a greener, cleaner environment, for people, places, and our planet.
The internationally respected accreditation programme of Bronze, Silver and Gold awards are acknowledged worldwide as an indicator of good environmentally friendly practice and are a great way of progressing on a green journey as well as acting as a hallmark of quality for our eco-minded visitors.
Here at The Gonville Hotel, we have established our own in-house ‘Environmental Committee’ which is responsible for monitoring, implementing, and encouraging our team and guests to embrace these values of sustainability.
