As the tourism landscape evolves in the wake of the pandemic, people’s mindsets are shifting as they reassess the way they travel once it is safe to do so again.

Hilton, a leading global hospitality company, recognizes that travelers are now seeking more meaningful experiences, preferring to immerse themselves in the destination while connecting with the local community and its environment. 

“Founded on the premise that travel can make the world a better place, Hilton remains committed to this guiding principle today as we deliver sustainable experiences while creating unforgettable memories for travelers. People want to return from a trip feeling enriched and transformed, so it is our goal to provide our guests with opportunities to make a positive change during their journeys,” said Sylvia Low, director of corporate responsibility, Asia Pacific, Hilton.

“Many of our hotels and resorts across Asia Pacific have embraced this emerging preference for sustainable travel experiences by inspiring new ideas so that guests can join us in reducing environmental impact.”

Through Hilton’s Travel with Purpose strategy, the company continues to take significant steps to integrate positive social impact and environmental stewardship throughout its operations, communities and supply chain. Hilton’s recent 2020 Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) Report highlights the company’s environmental performance during the tumultuous year, showcasing the company’s efforts to conserve natural resources while remaining fully committed to halving its environmental impact by 2030.

As part of its multi-use LEED Gold certified building, Conrad Manila’s guest rooms are outfitted with occupancy sensors that control both lighting and cooling functions as well as dual-flushing and low-flow plumbing among other irrigation fixtures to control water usage. The hotel is also committed to supporting the local community through regular meal packing activities with Rise Against Hunger, recycling soap through the ‘Soap for Hope’ program and various food banking initiatives.

A strong advocate of local arts, the hotel features an expansive collection of 736 art pieces by respected contemporary local artists that fosters an interactive appreciation of the local community, culture and historical heritage, while promoting environmental sustainability and protection.
