Environmental evidence and weighted assessment

Environmental performance and evidence coverage are measured separately. Ownership and community information remain separate from this environmental rating.

Environmental evidence by pillar
PillarWeightPerformance levelContributionEvidence and source
Nature, biodiversity and regeneration30%Missing or stale evidenceUnknown
Energy and climate15%1/43.75 / 15 points

The Copenhagen-scoped operator plan describes green energy use, but this capture does not establish current property-specific energy mix, metered savings or completed climate targets. Claim-level evidence only.

Source · 2026-10-02
Water10%2/45 / 10 points

The Copenhagen-scoped operator plan describes refillable drinking-water bottles and housekeeping that avoids unnecessary linen/towel replacement. Orbital showers are only specifically evidenced in eight Axel rooms and at Bryggen; no whole-property Orbital coverage is assumed here.

Source · 2026-10-02
Waste and plastic10%3/47.5 / 10 points

The Copenhagen-scoped operator plan describes twice-daily food-waste measurement, waste collection by DAKA Refood for biofuel, and sorting glass, cardboard, plastic, metal, paper and batteries. No quantified reduction outcome is verified.

Source · 2026-10-02
Food, farming and sourcing10%3/47.5 / 10 points

The operator describes Danish hotels using organic food and drink, a principal supplier with a no-fly food policy, and reuse of breakfast components in later menus. The stated 99% organic figure and Golden Ø status are operator claims, not an independently checked register result here.

Source · 2026-10-02
Buildings, heritage reuse and land use15%2/47.5 / 15 points

The Copenhagen-scoped operator plan describes reuse of doors, mouldings and furniture during refurbishment, plus vintage furniture and use until worn out. This supports an implemented reuse approach; it does not establish property-specific heritage preservation, building energy performance or a lifecycle result.

Source · 2026-10-02
Transport and operational footprint5%2/42.5 / 5 points

The Copenhagen-scoped operator plan describes streamlining deliveries through a principal food supplier to reduce delivery frequency and using its no-air-freight food policy. This is an operational procurement measure, not proof of guest-travel emissions or hotel carbon neutrality.

Source · 2026-10-02
Measurement, transparency and certification5%1/41.25 / 5 points

An attributable public management plan states its Copenhagen scope and practices. Its 2023-and-beyond targets are not treated as completed actions; Green Globe/Green Key membership or certification currency is not independently established here.

Source · 2026-10-02

Version 2.1 weights conservation and habitat at 30%, heritage reuse and land use at 15%, energy at 15%, water at 10%, waste at 10%, food at 10%, transport at 5% and transparency at 5%. A pillar contributes its weight multiplied by its performance level divided by four. Solar equipment alone cannot establish a high overall score. Missing pillars are excluded from the performance denominator and reduce evidence coverage. Performance levels: 0 documented absence or contrary evidence; 1 claim; 2 a specific implemented system; 3 several evidenced systems; 4 quantified outcomes or independently verified exceptional implementation. Ratings require at least 70% coverage; below 85% coverage they are capped at 3/5. If less than half the weighted evidence supports implemented systems, the rating is capped at 2/5. A 4/5 result requires at least 70% evidenced performance. A 5/5 result requires at least 90% performance and coverage, exceptional documented outcomes across at least half the total weight, and strong nature conservation. Evidence must be rechecked within two years.
