Taj Hotel Group has been awarded gold certifications for nine of its hotels by EarthCheck, a global leader in environmental benchmarking.  The establishment is recognized as one of Asia’s largest and finest hotel companies and is comprised of 93 hotels across 55 locations across India, with 16 additional international hotels in the United States as well as the Maldives, Malaysia, Australia, UK,  Bhutan, Sri Lanka, Africa and the Middle East.

It’s encouraging to the worldwide hospitality industry to see the Taj Group demonstrate unwavering environmental savings and commitment to sustainability in line with its  premier corporate social responsibility program.
