Sustainability at DoubleTree by Hilton Swindon.
At DoubleTree by Hilton Swindon, we’re committed to making a positive impact on our environment and our local community. Sustainability is woven into our day-to-day operations, with initiatives that support biodiversity, reduce waste, and help create a greener future for everyone.
Proud to be Green Key Certified
We are proud to have achieved the Green Key accreditation, an internationally recognised eco-certification awarded to hotels that demonstrate excellence in environmental responsibility and sustainable operations.
Our Green Key accreditation reflects our ongoing commitment to reducing our environmental impact while providing guests with a comfortable and responsible stay.
Our Rooftop Bees
High above the hotel, we’re home to two thriving feral beehives. Our rooftop bees play an important role in supporting local biodiversity and pollinating the surrounding environment.
The honey they produce is carefully harvested and jarred by the hotel, creating a truly local product and celebrating one of nature’s hardest workers.
Small Changes, Big Impact
Every day, we encourage both our team and our guests to make more sustainable choices. Whether it’s reducing single-use plastics, choosing to carpool where possible, or supporting environmentally responsible practices throughout the hotel, every small action contributes to a bigger difference.
As part of Hilton’s global sustainability commitments, we continually seek ways to enhance our environmental performance and introduce new green initiatives across our hotels.
Partnering with Dripdrop
Through our partnership with Dripdrop, we’re helping to tackle plastic pollution and restore ecosystems around the world.
In 2025, our guests helped remove 1.4kg of plastic from Indonesia’s coastlines. This initiative supports cleaner oceans, protects marine wildlife, and creates fair, safe employment opportunities for local communities involved in waste collection.
Together, we also helped plant 51 trees, contributing towards Dripdrop’s incredible milestone of planting one million trees. These projects help restore rainforests, absorb carbon, protect coastlines, and support communities through sustainable employment.

Looking Ahead
Sustainability is a journey, and we’re always looking for new ways to reduce our environmental impact while enhancing the experience for our guests. By working together with our team, guests, and trusted partners, we’re proud to play our part in creating a more sustainable future.
