Green Travel Ratings Hotel

RezHub's Green Scores

Hotels Across America Are Working To Green Up Their Acts
So we decided it was time for a "Green Score," rating system to help you decide exactly how green each hotel really is. We give each of our Green Amenities a points value of 1, 2, or 3 (an amenity with 3 points takes a lot more effort for a hotel to achieve than an amenity with 1 point). Next, we add up the points for each hotel and give them a Green Score. Each hotel is awarded one Green Branch for each score level they achieve.

We've even launched a Sort by Green Feature which allows you to view hotels in order of the way they are taking care of the planet. You can learn more about our Sort By Green feature here. Our Green Score and Sort By Green features are Patent Pending.
