Sofitel Mumbai BKC has announced that it has been awarded Green Key Certification by the National Jury Green Key India and the Center for Environment Education (CEE). The hotel is the very first in the country to have been awarded this prestigious certification.

In India, the Green Key certificate is being implemented by the Centre for Environment Education (CEE) Ahmedabad, which is a full member of the Foundation for Environmental Education (FEE). Green Key India is an initiative of CEE, Ahmedabad.
Manish Dayya, general manager, said, “This past year has been thrilling for us, with numerous accolades being awarded to the hotel. The Green Key Certification is not just another feather in our caps; it's a symbol of our collective efforts and commitment as a team to sustainability. Sofitel Mumbai BKC now stands as the inaugural recipient of this certification in India, one of only two such certifications globally, among the very best in their category, available worldwide. For our parent company Accor, and for all the hotel brands under the Accor umbrella (including Sofitel Hotels and Resorts), sustainability is at the very core of our business – sustainable transformation is a commitment we take very seriously, and our global mission is to have 100% of all Accor hotels certified in the next few years. We are delighted to be able to support the Accor vision with our local efforts, and hope to pave the way for many more sustainability-led breakthroughs in 2024.”
