The Leading Hotels of the World (LHW), with more than 400 independent luxury hotels in over 80 countries, is proud to announce that the Sustainability Leaders collection that launched in October 2023 has grown by more than 50% in only 6 months.

The Sustainability Leaders collection was created to recognize Leading Hotels that are committed to preserving the environment and the cherished values and cultural heritage of their destinations.
It is not unusual for a country to be shaped in the public gaze by some of its most stereotypical facets. For some, France will always be the Eiffel Tower, a striped T-shirt and a baguette in a bicycle basket. Germany’s image will forever have something to do with beer and sausages. As for Switzerland, the next three words choose themselves. Mountains. Clocks. And, depending on the sweetness of your tooth, cheese or chocolate.
