Atlanta Marriott Century Center/Emory Area Earns TripAdvisor GreenLeader Gold Level

ATLANTA, June 5, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Atlanta Marriott Century Center/Emory Area, an idyllic hotel offering an array of modern, eco-friendly amenities and processes, was recently identified with a Gold Level as part of TripAdvisor's GreenLeaders Program. This program acknowledges hotels that are committed to green practices like recycling, water efficiency and alternative energy.

One of the more affordable hotels in Atlanta, the Century Center Marriott is situated 10 minutes or less from Emory University, Mercer University, Buckhead, Atlanta VA Medical Center, the Atlanta CDC and much more. This central location means guests only have a short drive or MARTA ride to multiple businesses and attractions and can reduce emissions by not traveling far from their accommodations.

Hotels must apply and be accepted into the GreenLeaders Program to achieve one of five levels: Partner, Bronze, Silver, Gold and Platinum. The higher the level, the greater the impact of a property's green practices. The program was developed with help from national and international green industry experts, including the LEED Certification Program, the EPA's ENERGY STAR program and other sustainability experts.
