Waikiki hotels focus on green initiatives

More hotels in Waikiki are seeing reasons to go green as a way to cut back on energy costs, plus get some good publicity.

Savvy travelers are also beginning to inquire about it, including events planners who ask about whether a hotel has the U.S. Energy Star rating.

At the Hyatt Regency Waikiki, energy-efficient LED lights are used in public areas, candelabras, swimming pool, and elevators, reducing the hotel’s overall electricity costs.

At a green hotel forum hosted by the state yesterday morning at the Hyatt, hotel employees got a rundown on recycling providers, how to apply for the U.S. Energy Star label and solar technology.
