Courtyard San Antonio Riverwalk Celebrates Green Key Certification 2025
The Courtyard by Marriott San Antonio Riverwalk in Texas recently earned the Green Key Global Sustainability Certificate issued by Green Key Global in Ottawa, Ontario. The certification evaluates hotels on energy efficiency, environmental practices, waste management, community engagement, and associate education.
Courtyard by Marriott San Antonio Riverwalk is committed to community impact and environmental sustainability, the company said in a statement.
“We are thrilled to receive the Green Key Global Sustainability Certification,” said Dinesh Rao, the hotel’s general manager. “We are committed to creating a sustainable future for our guests, staff, and the environment. This certification is a testament to our efforts, and we will continue to lead the way in eco-friendly hospitality.”
The hotel also reduces food waste by donating excess food through Copia, the statement said. Last year, it donated over 2,200 pounds, providing more than 1,900 meals to San Antonio nonprofits.
