RH Hotels Drives Sustainable Hospitality

Topia Water In Holiday Inn

We’re passionate about helping hospitality leaders create outstanding guest experiences without compromising the planet. One of the biggest sources of plastic waste worldwide comes from single-use water bottles – and hotels are no exception.

RH Hotels took a powerful step in their sustainable journey by partnering with Topia Water to transform the way they hydrate their guests. Now, they’re sharing first-hand insights into how our solutions are shaping their operations – and the results speak for themselves.

A Shared Vision for Sustainability

From the outset, it was clear that RH Hotels was looking for more than just a water supplier – they wanted a sustainability partner. With a strong commitment to reducing single-use plastics and aligning with IHG’s Journey to Tomorrow principles, RH Hotels embodies the type of client we’re proud to work with.

Our refillable water solution fit seamlessly into their vision. By providing Chilled Still and Sparkling water on demand, Topia Water enables RH Hotels to offer guests premium hydration while eliminating the need for single-use plastic bottles. Together, we’re demonstrating that operational efficiency, guest satisfaction, and environmental responsibility can coexist.

Meeting (and Exceeding) Sustainability Goals

When RH Hotels selected Topia Water, their objectives were clear:

  • Reduce single-use plastic across all RH Hotels properties
  • Provide a convenient and high-quality hydration experience for guests
  • Align operations with IHG’s Journey to Tomorrow commitments on environmental responsibility

Since installing our systems across five flagship properties – RH Hotels & Apartments-Pretoria, Holiday Inn Johannesburg-Rosebank, Holiday Inn Express Cape Town City Centre, Holiday Inn Express Durban-Umhlanga, and Holiday Inn Express Sandton- Woodmead – the results have been remarkable.

Guests have responded enthusiastically to the polished still and sparkling water available in reusable glass bottles in their rooms, conference spaces, and public areas. At the same time, RH Hotels has achieved a measurable reduction in single-use plastics, exceeding the initial targets set at the start of the project.

A Proud Partnership

We’re not just installing water dispensers – we’re helping our partners lead the charge toward a more sustainable future. Our work with RH Hotels shows what’s possible when innovation meets commitment.

This partnership reflects exactly what we stand for: delivering premium water experiences without waste. As RH Hotels continues to raise the bar for responsible hospitality in South Africa, we’re honored to support them every step of the way.
