Save the Earth with the "Green Coin"

Tokyu Hotels invites hotel guests to participate in the Green Coin Program (https://www.tokyuhotelsjapan.com/global/guide/greencoin/index.html). Green Coin aims to lower damage to the global environment by decreasing the number of toothbrushes and razors used daily at our hotels. Guests can participate in the Green Coin Program by returning a Green Coin to the front desk instead of using the amenities. The donations, equivalent to the number of coins collected, are made throughout the year to two forestation activities, the Children's Forest Program and the Tokyu Hotels Green Coin Forests held in Tabayama village, Yamanashi Prefecture.
