Environmental & Sustainability

At The Porter House Hotel Sydney, we are dedicated to sustainability and minimizing our environmental impact. As part of the global Accor brand, we follow their sustainability initiatives, playing our role in creating a more sustainable future for our guests, staff, and the community.


Certified by Ecotourism Australia

The Porter House Hotel Sydney has been awarded certification at the level Sustainable Tourism by Ecotourism Australia.

Ecotourism Australia is the country’s leading tourism certification body, and its programs are independently assessed against criteria covering energy, water, waste, supply chain, community contribution and cultural respect. Certification is reviewed annually rather than awarded once.

For us it means our practices have been examined by someone other than ourselves, which we think matters more than anything we could say about our own intentions.

Certification granted 20 October 2026. Valid until 30 June 2027.
