Teams around the hotel eagerly contribute innovative and creative green ideas. Upcycling has become a new trend at the property, which helps reduce wastage. With the help of the Food & Beverage team, broken crockery has been made into a new showpiece that can be displayed as a gleaming table decoration. The Housekeeping department also rescued retired towels to create eco-friendly flowerpots for guest rooms.
Outdoors, the fantastic Gardening Teams are always seeking new ways to improve garden areas. Palm tree leaves are interwoven to form graceful natural arches along garden pathways while fans are made from wood that would otherwise be discarded.
As part of their ongoing environmental campaigns, Mövenpick Yanbu participates in Earth Hour celebrations annually by turning off all lights in public areas for an hour.
