Angkor Palace Resort & Spa has several environmentally friendly practices in place to conserve the natural environment. These include water saving campaign for in-house guests, using energy saving lights and treating waste water to maintain the lush garden in the 11-hectare site.
Recently the resort was awarded as the ASEAN Green Hotel Standard Award in the second running years (i.e.; 2008-2009 and 2010-2011) which was presided over by Cambodia’ Acting Minister of Tourism – H.E Mr. Sam Prom Nea & Siem Reap Governor – H.E Dr. Sou Phirin.
The only reason that we have achieved this is because of the five star hotel resort’s compliance with environmentally friendly and energy conservation measures.
The ASEAN established the tourism standards as one measure in the road map for the integration of the tourism sector to realize the ASEAN economic community. The resort was selected by the Green Hotel Recognition Committee with these criteria and requirements: Environmental policy and actions for hotel operation, use of green products, collaboration with the community and local organizations, human resource development, solid waste management, energy efficiency, water efficiency, air quality management (indoor and outdoor), noise pollution control, waste water treatment and management, and toxic and chemical substance disposal management.
