At The Rubens at the Palace, we are proud to champion important sustainability initiatives and are committed to supporting local charities such as Kidscape, Belu Water and The Passage. We sustain a Living Wall of more than 10,000 herbaceous plants, creating a wildlife habitat in the heart of London.
As a proud member of The Travel Corporation (TTC), sustainability has been a core value of The Red Carnation Hotel Collection for many years. The TreadRight Foundation was established in 2008 as a uniting sustainability driver for the forty brands under the TTC umbrella.

How We Tread Right (HWTR) is TTC's five-year sustainability strategy, which guides the way we operate and the projects we support through The TreadRight Foundation. HWTR identifies the issues impacting the health of our world and presents eleven strategic goals that guide our sustainability initiatives at Red Carnation Hotels. This video summarises our focus areas, how the strategy is embedded into our business, and how this aligns with the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals.
Climate change is directly linked to an increase in greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions in the atmosphere resulting from human activity. It is all of our responsibility to reduce our emissions as much as possible, and support the transition to a low-carbon future.
Reach Net Zero GHG emissions across the value chain across the value chain by 2050 from a 2019 baseline year.
At 350 square metres, The Rubens at the Palace boasts a remarkable Living Wall, recently showcased on Netflix's Down to Earth with Zac Efron. This eco-friendly feature, comprising 10,000 herbaceous plants, serves as a pivotal element in our commitment to reducing pollution and embracing sustainability. Beyond creating a wildlife habitat, the Living Wall contributes to temperature regulation, enhancing air quality, and elevating the aesthetics of our London location.
