During our work in eco-friendly hospitality management, it became clear to us that there were a lot of people and organizations trying to 'do the right thing'.  Namely, operate their hotel with a 'green' mentality. Some were using eco-friendly products.  Some had robust recycling programs.  And others used a variety of operational methods to reduce their 'carbon footprint'. Unfortunately, there are many organizations that provide certification programs for the hotel industry.  Some are federal and state levels, some are private organizations.  It's very difficult for an individual hotel operator to easily find out which organization can help.

Consumers were also doing their share.  But they had to do a lot of research to find out if a property was practicing 'green' operations. Because of the multiple certification organizations, consumers had no place to go that easily displayed all the hotels that met at least one of these qualifications.

Greenhotelbookings.com is our attempt to help both the hotel operators and the consumer by providing a place where they can both find what they are looking for. In our site, property managers can locate information about certification and be listed on GHB.  On the other hand, consumers will be able to search for qualified properties that meet their particular requirements.
