Radisson Blu Dhaka Water Garden has once again reaffirmed its leadership in sustainability and business hospitality by winning Leading Eco-Friendly Hotel for the second consecutive year, along with Leading Business Hotel in Dhaka, at the prestigious Bangladesh Travel, Tourism and Hospitality Awards 2025 By The Bangladesh Monitor.
The awards were presented at a distinguished ceremony celebrating excellence across Bangladesh’s travel, tourism, and hospitality sector, attended by industry leaders, hospitality professionals, and members of the media. The prestigious awards were presented by the Adviser to the Interim Government of Bangladesh, recognizing the hotel’s outstanding contribution to sustainable and responsible hospitality. Winning the Leading Eco-Friendly Hotel title for back-to-back years reflects the hotel’s strengthened and consistent commitment to environmental responsibility. Radisson Blu Dhaka Water Garden continues to champion eco-conscious practices across all operations, placing sustainability at the core of its daily activities.
Key initiatives include the complete elimination of single-use plastics, a transition to biodegradable packaging, and the collection of used cooking oil for biodiesel production. The hotel has also introduced eco-friendly pioneer glass water bottles and operates its own in-house water purification plant, significantly reducing plastic waste. Additional sustainable practices include rainwater harvesting and storage, the removal of plastic straws, strict food-waste management policies, regular water-saving checks, and strong employee engagement through staff-led green initiatives. Further enhancing its sustainability efforts, the hotel maintains an in-house herb garden and vegetable plantation, including papaya trees, ensuring fresh and organic sourcing for its kitchens. Every Wednesday is observed as ‘Vegetable Day’, promoting healthy, sustainable dining choices for guests and associates alike.
Beyond environmental sustainability, the hotel’s earthquake-resistant building structure, designed to withstand seismic activity, further reflects its commitment to safety, resilience, and responsible development.
Together, these efforts reinforce Radisson Blu Dhaka Water Garden’s position as a pioneer of eco-friendly hospitality in Bangladesh, setting a benchmark for sustainable luxury while contributing positively to the environment and the community.
Radisson Blu Dhaka Water Garden has also made significant investments in large-scale green landscaping, nurturing biodiversity while reducing its overall carbon footprint. These green spaces create a cooler, fresher, and more welcoming environment throughout the hotel grounds. In addition, staff members are encouraged to adopt green mobility practices, including the use of bicycles and microbuses for group and staff transportation.
Alongside its sustainability achievements, the hotel’s recognition as Leading Business Hotel in Dhaka highlights its continued excellence in serving corporate travelers, multinational organizations, and high-profile events. Its strategic location near Hazrat Shahjalal International Airport, combined with extensive meeting and conference facilities, makes it a preferred destination for business and diplomatic engagements.
