ibis & TRIBE Budapest Stadium Hotel among the world’s most sustainable hotels
2025-09-29
Two hotel developments by WING, the ibis & TRIBE Budapest Stadium Hotel and the TRIBE Budapest Airport Hotel, have obtained the BREEAM certification. Additionally, the dual-branded Stadium Hotel is the first hotel in Hungary to achieve the highest rating, the BREEAM In-Use “Outstanding” category. With this, the hotel has joined a group of only four hotels worldwide that hold this top-level sustainability certification.
International green certification, outstanding achievement worldwide
WING has opened two TRIBE hotels in the past two years: the ibis & TRIBE Budapest Stadium Hotel, a three- and four-star, 332-room hotel located near Népliget, and the TRIBE Budapest Airport Hotel, a four-star, 167-room hotel connected to the airport, which has also received the Access4you certification for its inclusive and accessible design.
The ibis & TRIBE Budapest Stadium Hotel – a WING development combining two international brands – represents a unique blend of design-focused, dynamic hospitality and sustainable operations. The BREEAM In-Use “Outstanding” certification is the highest rating an existing building can obtain and remains a rarity even on a global scale.
These certifications are based on the hotels’ outstanding energy efficiency solutions, efficient waste and water management, people-centred design, and excellent accessibility. These achievements not only demonstrate environmental responsibility, but also meet the expectations set by EU directives and international corporations. Moreover, such green certifications are becoming a fundamental requirement for the future travellers.
“WING’s hotel division has become a major player in Hungary: we have delivered more than 1,000 hotel rooms and therefore have complex know-how as a developer, investor and operator. Sustainability is a core principle in all our projects – both from an economic and environmental perspective. This is now an industry standard, and we are proud to be at the forefront. We strongly believe that sustainability and guest experience are not mutually exclusive” said Ernő Takács, Deputy CEO of Hotels & Commercial Properties at WING.
“The ‘Outstanding’ BREEAM In-Use certification awarded to ibis & TRIBE Budapest Stadium Hotel marks a milestone not only in the Hungarian hospitality sector but also on the international stage. This rating represents the highest level of recognition for the sustainability performance of existing buildings, underpinned by comprehensive solutions in energy efficiency, water management, waste handling, and operational practices. We are proud to be among the few globally to achieve such an exceptional standard, which further reinforces our commitment to sustainability. This remarkable achievement is the result of close collaboration with our client, WING, and clearly demonstrates that environmentally conscious operations create long-term value for operators, investors, and guests alike. For Greenbors, it is especially important that more and more Hungarian developments meet international standards, helping to place Hungary firmly on the map of sustainable hospitality”, said Zsombor Barta, founding partner of Greenbors and certified BREEAM assessor.
