The Orchard Garden Hotel, located in downtown San Francisco at 466 Bush Street, was the third hotel in the U.S. and fourth hotel in the world to earn LEED (Leadership in Energy & Environmental Design) certification by the U.S. Green Building Council (USGBC). The Orchard Garden Hotel sits one block from Union Square, right next to Chinatown and around the corner from the Financial District. The hotel is owned by Mrs. S.C. Huang, who has devoted herself to creating an environmentally friendly, innovative tourist destination.
LEED certification was design to help market leaders combine financial efficiency with environmental awareness. The Orchard Garden Hotel accomplishes this by incorporating into its design efficient energy, water and material use as well as a variety of other sustainable strategies. Several steps were taken during the construction process to recycle usable debris to create renewable building materials and incorporate eco-friendly construction materials including sustainably harvested wood as building products. The Orchard Garden Hotel is a sought after tourist destination that also feature a 56-seat restaurant and bar. For more information or to make reservations please visit www.theorchardhotels.com.
