Sustainable luxury comes to life at the Grand Hyatt Singapore
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 which were well away from the sight of guests but were key to reducing 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 in Orchard Road. The art of conscious living At the Grand Hyatt Singapore, every detail is intentionally designed to offer a stay that is restorative, refined, 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 framed by repurposed stone offer an early reflection of the hotel's commitment to thoughtful, sustainable design. Digital check-ins, wooden keycards and aluminium pens 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. Smart systems optimise lighting and climate control, while water-efficient fittings contribute to the hotel's Green Mark Platinum certification. Sustainable dining on the regular Guided by Hyatt's philosophy, “Food. Thoughtfully sourced. Carefully served.”, the hotel offers a culinary programme that embraces sustainable practices throughout its entire pipeline, from sourcing of ingredients to waste management. Over 80 percent of organic vegetables are sourced from Cameron Highlands and local farms, including Spore Gardens and Plauts; plus, 55 percent of seafood used in the kitchen is certified sustainable. The hotel was the first in Southeast Asia to introduce plant-based alternatives and continues to champion zero-waste cooking through responsible usage of all ingredients. Grand Hyatt Singapore is also the first hotel in the country to use Wisefins technology, which tracks the carbon footprint of each dish and provides valuable insights into its environmental impact. Processed with VSCO with a6 preset Enter the WasteMaster 1000 A trailblazing feature of Grand Hyatt Singapore's food waste strategy is the fully automated and contactless WasteMaster 1000, which replaces the hotel's earlier waste management facility. This advanced system converts excess food into odourless, pathogen-free inert material while retaining up to 95 percent of its energy and nutrients. The nutrient-rich residue is then pelletised and used to feed locally cultivated tilapias at Metro Farm, as part of an aquaponics system. In turn, the waste nutrients from the fish are filtered and used to fertilise crops at the hotel's rooftop herb gardens, producing healthy, pesticide-free greens that are harvested for the hotel's kitchens. This innovative, closed-loop system supports Singapore's 30-by-30 food resilience goal, reducing waste while nurturing sustainable, local food production. Where quiet innovation comes into play Sustainability continues behind the scenes at the Grand Hyatt Singapore. LED lighting, regenerative elevators and rainwater harvesting reduce resource use. Kitchen dishwashers by Meiko and Granuldisk conserve water and energy while managing over 5,000 meals daily. Digital systems like MFC-Application replace paper-based food safety logs, and RFID technology enhances laundry efficiency. A new on-site bottling system launching in 2025 will eliminate single-use plastic water bottles across rooms and events. 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. With GSTC certification and decades of leadership, Grand Hyatt Singapore continues to demonstrate how luxury and responsibility can co-exist: beautifully, meaningfully, and with lasting impact. This meaningful guest journey continues in May 2025 with the re-opening of the transformed Grand Wing, where guests can look forward to even more elevated experiences that are thoughtfully designed with people and planet in mind.
