Sustainability

At HOTEL GROOVE SHINJUKU, A PARKROYAL Hotel, we are committed to becoming "a hotel that is kind to the planet, kind to the community, and kind to people." Guided by the principles of the SDGs, we strive to contribute to a more sustainable society through initiatives that leverage the unique role hotels can play.

These efforts are led by our cross-functional Sustainability Committee, made up of associates from various departments across the hotels.
