Responsibility

The $85 million guestroom renovation project at the 1,021 room Tapa Tower at Hilton Hawaiian Village Waikiki Beach Resort achieved LEED ® Certification in April 2025. This certification recognizes that Tapa Tower meets high standards for environmental sustainability, energy efficiency, and healthy indoor environments. Certification is awarded by the U.S. Green Building Council and involves a rigorous review of design, construction, and operational practices. This is Park’s first LEED-certified renovation project.

Hilton Hawaiian Village Waikiki Beach Resort was the winner of the inaugural award for the Green Park Energy Partner of the year, which recognizes the property in Park’s portfolio that has meaningfully decreased its environmental footprint.  The property decreased its electricity, natural gas, and water usage through targeted efficiency measures and retro-commissioning efforts, resulting in annual savings of $2 million. Given the size and footprint of this asset and the importance of protecting natural resources in Hawaii, these achievements not only help reduce the hotel’s carbon footprint, but also help sustain precious natural resources.

Hilton New Orleans Riverside was the inaugural award recipient for the Green Park Sustainability Partner of the Year, which recognizes the property in Park’s portfolio that has successfully implemented key sustainability programs and initiatives. The Hilton New Orleans Riverside was recognized for establishing a property-level sustainability committee, implementing a successful recycling program and refrigerant management program, substantially improving the waste diversion rate of over 35% in 2024, and earning local community recognition for sustainability efforts.

The Park Cares Committee is responsible for selecting, organizing and administering associate-led volunteering efforts in our community. Park continues to support community initiatives such as a back-to-school supplies drive to benefit True Ground Housing Partners (formerly known as Arlington Partnership for Affordable Housing), a toiletry and wellness supplies drive to benefit residents of N Street Village, the National Capital Area’s Salvation Army Angel Tree program, and the Don Bosco Cristo Rey High School work-study internship program.

The DoubleTree Hotel Washington DC - Crystal City’s hotel management and associates have demonstrated a strong commitment to supporting food security efforts in the local community. In 2024, team members partnered with United Communities, a nonprofit organization based in Alexandria, Virginia, that provides critical services through its Cynthia Hull Food Pantry and school-based markets to assist in food distribution events for families in need. Hotel associates also volunteer twice a year with the Arlington Food Assistance Center (AFAC), helping stock supplies and distribute fresh produce - volunteering 262 hours in 2024. Additionally, the hotel team participated in planting and harvesting at JK Community Farm, providing organic food to food banks serving Arlington and Washington, D.C. To further their impact, the hotel staff also organize packaged food donation drives twice annually, reinforcing their dedication to fighting hunger and supporting their neighbors in need.
