Green Key drives certified, measurable hotel sustainability
At the FEE International Conference on Crete, Joaquin Arturo Diaz Rios discusses Green Key's sustainability roadmap, emphasizing certification, stakeholder accountability, and the urgent need for measurable, provable green practices. REPORT – Crete: The Green Key sustainability roadmap is shaping the future of the global hospitality sector, as emphasized by Joaquin Arturo Diaz Rios, CEO of FEE Mexico during the International Conference of the Foundation for Environmental Education (FEE) on Crete, Greece. Diaz Rios highlighted that strengthening Green Key's evaluation tools is essential to accurately measure the environmental impact of hotel operations. Simply claiming to be 'green' is no longer sufficient — properties must demonstrate their sustainability through rigorous internal and external assessments, providing tangible proof to consumers and stakeholders alike. Green Key's sustainability roadmap stresses that hotel operators must first become conscious of their impact, take responsibility, and then take action to minimize negative effects. This involves reducing water and energy consumption, managing waste effectively, and involving not just hotel staff but also guests — whether they are visiting for leisure or business. All stakeholders in the hotel ecosystem share this responsibility. Moving toward a sustainable future requires shifting away from viewing sustainability as a romantic ideal; it is, in fact, an operational obligation. Looking ahead, Diaz Rios noted that regulatory frameworks like the EU Green Claims Directive are driving the hospitality sector toward verified sustainability. Within the next five years, he predicts that major hotel chains and independent properties alike will be compelled to adopt new sustainability-focused operational models. This shift is not merely regulatory — it is also a response to rising consumer demand. Guests increasingly ask for and expect verified, certified green practices, and platforms like now visibly display which hotels are undergoing continuous sustainability evaluations. Diaz Rios also reflected on the Mexican context, where the majority of inbound travelers come from the United States. While awareness levels remain uneven across both international and domestic travelers, Green Key's sustainability roadmap includes raising awareness as a foundational step. As part of the Foundation for Environmental Education, Green Key's mission extends beyond certification — it is about fostering environmental consciousness and spreading the sustainability message across all market segments. As Diaz Rios emphasized, raising awareness is the critical starting point for any meaningful shift toward sustainable practices in hospitality. Only by aligning operational accountability, certification, and consumer expectations can the industry deliver on its sustainability promises.

CoStar, Tourism Economics downgrade U.S. hotel forecast through 2026
CoStar and Tourism Economics lowered 2025–26 U.S. hotel growth forecasts, citing weaker demand, higher costs, and cautious consumer sentiment. WASHINGTON – CoStar and Tourism Economics downgraded growth projections in a revised 2025-26 U.S. hotel forecast just released at the NYU International Hospitality Investment Forum. Given Q1 underperformance and elevated macroeconomic concerns, forecasted growth rates were lowered across the top-line metrics: supply (-0.1 ppts), demand (-0.6 ppts), ADR (-0.3 ppts) and RevPAR (-0.8 ppts). Similar adjustments were made for 2026: supply (-0.5 ppts), demand (-0.3 ppts), ADR (-0.7 ppts) and RevPAR (-0.6 ppts). 'Top-line performance is still growing even in the current environment,' said Amanda Hite, STR president. 'Until consumer confidence improves, however, demand is going to remain softer—especially in the middle and lower price tiers. Rate is pushing the top line in the group segment, and business transient should continue to recover in a lot of industries, but leisure gains are going to be more isolated. Our forward-looking data continues to support the observations of many industry stakeholders that booking windows have shortened. That adds to the challenges hoteliers will face in the coming quarters.' 'We're looking ahead to a second half of the year with consumers facing higher prices and a weaker labor market, businesses tapping the brakes on investment, and soft international visitor volumes,' said, director of industry studies at Tourism Economics. 'While recession risks have eased, the economy – and the travel sector – will walk on a tight rope through this period.' The projection for gross operating profit per available room (GOPPAR) was also lowered $3 for 2025. 'While GOP growth will continue, the pace will be modest due to softer demand, rising departmental costs, and limited margin gains from ancillary revenues,' Hite said. 'When adjusted for inflation, GOP is down from last year.'
