Earth Hour is an initiative sponsored by World Wildlife Fund for addressing global climate change. On the night of March 31th, 2007, more than 2.2 million
families and companies powered down their lights in Sydney, Australia. This big activity acquired global attention and participation around the world.
In response to this, each Member Hotel will shut down all façade lighting outside and unnecessary lighting inside between 20:30 and 21:30, on March 31st of each year. We need your support to show the "Green Action".
Argyle Boutique Hotel Jinzhou has spent RMB 17 million to build a Solar Power Project, which was a first for the hotel industry to make full use of solar energy

Chinese Solar Power Projects.
We advocate Member Hotels to implement "China Green Hotel" standards and innovative green technology.
We have designed our “Green Card” to inform long stay guests that they can obtain a discount off their room rate or a basket of fresh fruit during their stay if they do not require their sheets to be changed daily. If hotels can change sheets once every three days, it can help to decrease carbon dioxide emission by 40,000 tons per year, which means it would save coal usage by 16,000 tons.
