Frequently asked questions

How do I score honestly on the Hotel Sustainability Score?+

Anchor to evidence: 0 = nothing exists; 1–2 = informal practice, no documents; 3 = policy + some records; 4 = systematic with evidence an auditor would accept; 5 = audited/certified best practice. When torn between two scores, pick the lower — external assessors will.

Why are the criteria weighted differently?+

Because raters, buyers and auditors don't weight equally: compliance and safety findings kill deals, aspirational categories merely decorate them. The weights mirror that field reality, so your weighted score predicts external outcomes better than an unweighted average would.

What's a useful target score?+

70+ (the 'Advanced' band) handles most buyer questionnaires and pre-audits comfortably. Moving 40→70 is usually documentation and registers — months, not years. The last 15 points are systems and certification — budget them deliberately.

How often should we re-score?+

Quarterly during active improvement, semi-annually at maturity — same scorer or calibrated scorers for comparability. Score movement is management-review gold: it converts ESG work into a single trended number leadership can steer by.
