The Best Western Winchester Hotel received the Champion Green Award at Best Western Hotels & Resorts’ District III Meeting held recently in Chicago, Illinois.

The award was presented in front of several hundred District III Best Western hoteliers.

The Champion Green Award is earned by properties that demonstrate a commitment to sustaining resources and reducing their carbon footprint. Champion Green Award recipients must comply with the AH&LA Green guidelines and/or the Green Key programs in Canada, and receive a bronze, silver, gold or platinum rating in the TripAdvisor Green Leaders program. The hotels must also meet quality and service standards and other membership requirements to qualify for each award.
