To honour Earth Day, Chatrium Hotel Riverside Bangkok proudly reaffirmed its commitment to environmental sustainability with a meaningful event under the theme "Green Leaf People – Planting a Greener Heart for a Sustainable World." Organized by the hotel’s Sustainability Committee, the event brought together associates and executives for a symbolic tree-planting activity featuring the "Hua Jai Tosakan" (Heart of Tosakan) plant — a leafy green variety known for its heart-shaped foliage and environmental benefits. This initiative aimed to promote greater ecological responsibility and encourage a lasting commitment to protecting the planet. Held at the staff canteen from 10.30 to 14.00, the event invited participants to plant and take home their own Hua Jai Tosakan plants, symbolising individual action towards a greener future. This simple yet impactful gesture reflected the belief that every small step, every leaf planted, contributes to meaningful, global change. This Earth Day activity is part of Chatrium’s “Think First, Think Earth” program, which underscores the brand’s vision of leading the way in sustainable hospitality. Through initiatives like these, Chatrium Hotel Riverside Bangkok continues to inspire positive environmental action and create a lasting impact for future generations.
We’re proud to announce that three of our Chatrium properties have been recognized for their sustainability efforts with the Green Leaf Certification.
- Chatrium Hotel Riverside Bangkok has received the 5 Green Leaf Certification, the highest distinction for environmental excellence.
- Emporium Suites by Chatrium and Maitria Hotel Sukhumvit 18 A Chatrium Collection have each received the 3 Green Leaf Certification, showing a strong dedication to environmental responsibility.
- Maitria Hotel Rama 9 A Chatrium Collection has been awarded the 4 Green Leaf Certification for its exceptional eco-friendly practices.
The Green Leaf Foundation granted these honors in recognition of our energy-saving efforts, waste reduction, and commitment to creating greener guest experiences. Through our Think First, Think Earth campaign, we’re focused on plastic-free initiatives, eco-friendly products, responsible sourcing, and meaningful community engagement. A recent CSR activity at Wat Klong Toei Nok saw our teams helping clean the temple and install solar panels to support the local community.
These certifications reflect our ongoing mission to become a leading sustainable hotel brand in Bangkok and across Thailand. We’re truly grateful and more inspired than ever to keep making a difference, one stay at a time.
