Lohkah Hotel & Spa Awarded GSTC (Global Sustainable Tourism Council) Certification by Bureau Veritas Group

Sustainability 09/15/2025

Xiamen, September 15, 2025, today, the internationally renowned certification body Bureau Veritas formally awarded the GSTC (Global Sustainable Tourism Council) certification to Lohkah Hotel & Spa. As the first Chinese luxury hotel brand to receive this prestigious recognition, Lohkah Hotel & Spa, guided by its brand philosophy of "The Essence of Discovery," has established a new industry benchmark through systematic sustainable practices across dimensions such as ecological conservation, cultural heritage preservation, and community prosperity. This achievement signifies a pivotal step for China's luxury hotel sector in the global journey towards sustainable development.

The attainment of this GSTC certification is not only a practical culmination of Lohkah Hotel & Spa's "A Touch of Intuitive Authenticity" brand philosophy but also signifies that China's luxury hotel industry is engaging in a dialogue between local wisdom and global standards, offering a "Chinese approach" to sustainable tourism. In June 2024, the two properties under the group's boutique luxury brand, Kaipuu — namely, Kaipuu on the Reef and Kaipuu Belfry — were already among the first to obtain this certification. Moving forward, the Lohkah Group will continue to drive more of its hotels to implement sustainable practices, forging a sustainable paradigm that blends humanistic warmth and ecological wisdom within the hospitality sector and beyond.
