A LEADING hotel in the Capital has been recognised for its work in reducing its environmental impact.
The Roxburghe Hotel was given the silver Green Tourism Business Scheme (GTBS) award in recognition of its efforts in marketing, management and communication.

Among its efforts that were applauded were its signage on its towel policy and switching off electrical appliances.

The GTBS is the leading sustainable tourism certification scheme in the UK. Businesses are assessed against a rigorous set of criteria, including energy and water efficiency, waste management, biodiversity and more.

General manager Chris Wayne-Wills said: "This is a fantastic award and we are extremely proud of our green credentials. We will be doing everything in our power to achieve the gold award."
