Sustainability at Novotel Sydney Parramatta
Our Commitment to a Greener Future
At Novotel Sydney Parramatta, we are committed to making travel more sustainable for our guests, our community, and the planet. From reducing single-use plastics to championing eco-friendly food practices, we’re continually evolving the way we operate to minimise our environmental footprint and encourage conscious travel.
Our goal is simple: deliver exceptional comfort while contributing to a healthier, more sustainable world.
Sustainable Guest Experience
Plastic-Free & Refillable Water Solutions
Enjoy complimentary filtered water throughout your stay without the waste. Guest rooms include reusable glass bottles, which can be refilled at our Purezza filtered water station located at the bar - helping reduce thousands of single-use plastic bottles each year. Guests staying in our modern rooms and suites can enjoy these plastic-free and refillable amenities as part of a more conscious hotel experience.
Reduced Single-Use Guest Amenities
We’ve removed disposable items such as toothbrushes, combs, and shower caps from our rooms to cut down on plastic waste. Guests who require these items can simply request them at reception, ensuring resources are only provided when needed.
Sustainable & Locally Sourced Dining
Our restaurant and in-room dining menus champion local producers, with fresh ingredients sourced within a 50km radius of Parramatta. Choosing local means lower food miles, seasonal flavour, and direct support for regional farmers and suppliers. Explore our seasonal menus at 350 Restaurant & Lounge, where locally sourced ingredients and sustainable cooking practices shape a more planet-friendly dining experience.
Food Waste Reduction Initiatives
As part of our ongoing sustainability program, we are introducing new strategies to reduce food waste across our kitchen and restaurant operations, further improving our environmental performance and resource efficiency.
Global Partnership for Ocean Protection
Novotel is proud to support the WWF (World Wide Fund for Nature) through an international partnership focused on protecting and restoring the world’s oceans. Announced after World Oceans Day, this collaboration reinforces our commitment to long-term environmental action through science-based initiatives. Read more.
