Sustainable Luxury at Grand Hyatt Singapore
A Leader in Eco-Conscious Hospitality
Grand Hyatt Singapore stands at the forefront of sustainable hospitality in Southeast Asia. Even before environmental benchmarks became an industry standard, the hotel was already investing in long-term practices that care deeply for both people and the planet.
Since 2002, it has quietly championed solutions that reduce energy, water, and waste. Many of these measures were well away from the sight of guests but were key to minimizing the property’s adverse impact on the environment.
In the wake of its most transformative, multi-year redevelopment, the hotel reopens with renewed purpose as a Grand Living Room and Wellness Haven.
The Art of Conscious Living
At Grand Hyatt Singapore, every detail is intentionally designed to offer a stay that is restorative and rooted in conscious living. As hotel director of engineering Clyric Ng explains:
“A key consideration in Grand Hyatt Singapore’s multi-year transformation is to design a meaningful guest experience that evokes a sense of total belonging, in terms of local immersion and environmental responsibility. From using 100 percent renewable electricity to implementing smart utilities and waste management systems, we strive to raise the benchmark for sustainable luxury without compromising on the Grand Experience.”
Sustainable Stays from Start to Finish
The guest experience begins with intentional design and sustainable operations. In the lobby, refreshed garden views and a tranquil, cascading waterfall frame the hotel’s commitment to thoughtful design.
Digital check-ins and wooden keycards have replaced traditional amenities, eliminating over 10,000 single-use plastic items annually. The entire hotel is powered by 100 percent renewable electricity through a partnership with Flo Energy.
Sustainable Dining on the Regular
Guided by Hyatt’s philosophy, “Food. Thoughtfully sourced. Carefully served,” the hotel provides a culinary program embracing sustainable practices throughout its pipeline. Over 80 percent of organic vegetables are sourced from local farms, and the hotel champions zero-waste cooking.
Enter the WasteMaster 1000
A trailblazing feature of Grand Hyatt Singapore’s food waste strategy is the fully automated WasteMaster 1000. This system converts excess food into inert material while retaining up to 95 percent of its energy and nutrients, feeding locally cultivated tilapias as part of an aquaponics system.
Lasting Impressions
Guests leave knowing their stay has supported a greater purpose. From clean energy and local sourcing to zero-waste dining and closed-loop systems, every element of the experience contributes to a more sustainable future.
Grand Hyatt Singapore demonstrates how luxury and responsibility can coexist beautifully, and this journey continues with the re-opening of the transformed Grand Wing in May 2025.
