The establishment of green hotel grade standard refers to international practice, draws lessons from the advanced experience of foreign countries in implementing green hotels, and provides enterprises with the requirements of creating green hotels, implementing and strengthening environmental management in combination with the operating status of hotel industry and people's consumption level in China. According to the national standard of green hotels, creating green hotels can help enterprises save electricity 15% and water 10% on average. Take more than 10,000 star-rated hotels in China as an example. If green hotels are established, water can be saved for 180 small and medium-sized cities every year. The electricity saved is equivalent to the current power generation of the Three Gorges Power Station for nearly one month and the electricity consumption of nearly 170 small and medium-sized cities for one year. "

Since the implementation of the national standard "Green Hotel" in March 2008, China has actively promoted the creation of green hotels, and achieved remarkable results and great potential by strengthening the comprehensive energy-saving management of technology, equipment and services. Green hotel is a systematic project with wide coverage and high standards.

In addition to outstanding performance in green design, energy management, environmental protection and reducing material consumption, green hotels must also reflect the initiative of the public to participate in environmental protection construction, and hotel services can guide green consumption.

According to reports, in recent years, some hotels have created a series of scientific methods for environmental protection, energy conservation and emission reduction in combination with their own characteristics, and achieved remarkable results. Some hotels use high technology to transform hotel facilities and equipment, effectively reducing energy consumption and waste emissions.

Green hotels are divided into five grades. According to the efforts made by enterprises in providing green services and protecting the environment, they are divided into five grades: A, AA, AAA, AAAA and AAAAAA. AAAAA is the highest level.

Grade A: It means that the hotel abides by the national laws and regulations on environmental protection, hygiene and safety, and has begun to implement some measures to improve the environment, making time commitments on key environmental protection principles.

AA: It means that the hotel has made some efforts to provide green services to consumers and reduce the impact of business operations on the environment, and achieved initial results.

AAA: It means that the hotel has achieved fruitful results in ecological benefits through continuous practice and is in a leading position in the hotel industry in this region.

AAAA: It means that the hotel's services and facilities are highly recognized by the society in the practice of improving ecological benefits, and new measures are constantly put forward, which is in a leading position in the domestic hotel industry.

AAAAA: It means that the ecological benefits of hotels are in a leading position in the world hotel industry, and its continuous improvement measures are adopted and imitated by hotels at home and abroad.

The evaluation and star rating of green hotels are independent of each other, that is, non-five-star hotels may also have five leaves. But at the same time, the evaluation and star rating of green hotels complement each other. The higher the star rating, the higher the requirements for the hotel's environmental protection and health management.
