Raffles Jaipur, a sanctuary of conscious luxury nestled in the vibrant heart of Rajasthan, has been awarded the coveted Green Globe certification—one of the most respected sustainability benchmarks in the global hospitality industry. This recognition reflects the hotel's unwavering commitment to environmental responsibility, cultural stewardship, and mindful innovation.



Since inception, Raffles Jaipur has championed a thoughtful approach to hospitality. The hotel integrates sustainable practices across every dimension of operations—right from its architectural planning to guest experiences. The elimination of single-use plastics in rooms, a paperless check-in process, and the use of ethically sourced amenities are just a few of the many conscious choices that shape its day-to-day operations.



Further reinforcing its environmental vision, Raffles Jaipur has introduced a fleet of BMW electric vehicles for guest transfers, supported by on-site EV charging stations. This initiative not only elevates guest comfort but also aligns with the property's broader goals of reducing its carbon footprint.



The hotel's culinary programme follows a no-buffet, à la carte service model to reduce food waste, while an Organic Waste Converter transforms biodegradable waste into nutrient-rich compost used across the property's native, drought-tolerant gardens. Energy-efficient systems—including 100% LED lighting, motion sensor technology, solar-powered daylight operations, and an advanced Building Management System (BMS)—help significantly reduce consumption. Water conservation is equally central, with rainwater harvesting, smart irrigation, and an in-house sewage treatment plant recycling up to 80% of the water used.



Recognising its role beyond the hotel's walls, Raffles Jaipur remains deeply committed to the local community. Through its 'Vocal for Local' initiative, the hotel supports artisans, folk performers, and regional producers. Collaborations with institutions like Jaipur Centre of Art and Siyahi, alongside cultural showcases and school infrastructure development, underline the property's dedication to preserving heritage and creating lasting social impact.



Commenting on the milestone, Binny Sebastian, General Manager, Raffles Jaipur, shared: "At Raffles Jaipur, sustainability is not a checklist—it's a conscious way of life that informs every choice we make. This Green Globe certification is a testament to the dedication of our team and our guests who believe in purposeful luxury. We are proud to set new benchmarks for hospitality that is not only elegant, but also ethically grounded."



With the Green Globe certification now in place, Raffles Jaipur stands as a proud example of how luxury and sustainability can co-exist with harmony, heart, and a deep respect for the world around us.
