ASCOTT LIMITED INDONESIA BECOMES FIRST IN INDONESIA TO ACHIEVE GSTC CERTIFICATION ACROSS MULTIPLE PROPERTIES

In a defining moment for Indonesia’s hospitality industry, The Ascott Limited Indonesia has become the first hotel group in the country to achieve Global Sustainable Tourism Council (GSTC) certification across multiple properties. This milestone reinforces Ascott’s position as a leader in conscious travel and sustainability, reshaping the way luxury hospitality integrates eco-conscious practices.

The certification, recognized worldwide, sets a high standard for environmental care, cultural preservation, and community engagement. Ascott’s six certified properties, including Ascott Kuningan Jakarta, Somerset Grand Citra Jakarta, and Citadines Berawa Beach Bali, have undergone rigorous evaluations to ensure every aspect of their operations aligns with global sustainability benchmarks. Additionally, Ascott itself has secured GSTC certification at the corporate level, showcasing a commitment that extends beyond individual properties.

Sustainability is more than a goal; it’s a responsibility we embed into every guest experience and operational strategy,” said Philip Barnes, Country General Manager of The Ascott Limited Indonesia.

This recognition complements CapitaLand Investments (CLI) 2030 Sustainability Master Plan, reinforcing Ascott’s dedication to carbon reduction, ethical sourcing, and long-term environmental stewardship. Its Ascott CARES framework, built on Community, Alliance, Respect, Environment, and Supply Chain, continues to guide the company’s sustainable growth.

With this groundbreaking achievement, Ascott is proving that luxury and sustainability can exist in harmony, setting a new benchmark for the future of responsible travel.
