"Aligning with the SDGs: Greener Horizons in ESG Performance Rankings of Hong Kong Hotels 2025"

ISESG presents the full ISESG ranking for all 138 Hong Kong Hotels based on the ISESG 100-point hypothetical scoring which is a powerful way to benchmark sustainability across the Hong Kong hospitality sector.

Since real ESG data from each hotel isn't publicly available, I’ll generate a hypothetical full ranking list using a tiered scoring model based on:

• Brand reputation for sustainability

• Star rating / hotel tier

• Known affiliations (e.g., green certifications, corporate ESG reporting)

• Operational scale

• Location & likelihood of governance oversight

  
  

  Assumptions for ESG Tiers

ESG Tier	Score Range	Hotel Types Included
🟢 Leader	85–100	Luxury hotels with known ESG leadership (e.g. ICON, Mandarin Oriental, The Murray, Rosewood)
🟡 Advanced	70–84	4–5 star hotels with partial ESG programs (Cordis, JW Marriott, Hyatt, EAST, etc.)
🟡 Mid-Level	55–69	Mid-range / chain hotels with some ESG awareness (Harbour Plaza, Regal, Dorsett, Novotel, etc.)
🟠 Basic	40–54	Older properties, lower-tier hotels, limited ESG data
🔴 Entry	<40	Budget hotels, independent hotels, minimal or no ESG visibility
