Three Chonburi properties of ONYX Hospitality Group received Green Tourism Awards at Thailand's 2026 Ultimate Thailand Green Tourism Showcase, recognising their sustainability and community engagement programmes.
On 1 November 2026, ONYX Hospitality Group announced that three of its Thailand properties — Amari Pattaya, OZO North Pattaya and Amari Bangsaen, all in Chonburi province — had won awards at the Ultimate Thailand Green Tourism Showcase 2026. Amari Pattaya and OZO North Pattaya were recognised in the Creativity and Innovation category, while Amari Bangsaen took home the Unique WOW Experience award. The recognition reflects ONYX's 'ONYX for Planet' sustainability framework, which covers energy and water efficiency, waste reduction, carbon reduction and community engagement. The group also holds GSTC Hotel Multi-site Certification and has partnered with CarbonWize for ESG data management. At Amari Don Muang Airport Bangkok Hotel, SP Group's Cooling-as-a-Service solution has been operational since April 2026 and is expected to reduce energy consumption by more than 40 per cent, save around 900,000 kWh of electricity and cut carbon emissions by approximately 449 tonnes annually. ONYX described sustainability as embedded in day-to-day operations rather than a separate programme, and the awards are seen as validating its practical approach to responsible tourism across its Asia-Pacific portfolio.
