Abstract
This paper unravels emerging perspectives on the concept of greening in selected hotels in the
Kumasi metropolis in Ghana. The study employed mixed-methodology by purposively selected ten highly
rated hotels in the Kumasi metropolis in the Ashanti region of Ghana. Eight interviews were conducted with
managers of these hotels; 40 semi-structured questionnaires were administered to employees and 50 semistructured
questionnaires were administered to customers. Descriptive statistics was employed with the aid of
the tools in SPSS version 21 to analyse the quantitative data collected, and the qualitative data were analysed
thematically. The study revealed that all the participating hotels engaged in some form of basic level of
greening, eco-certification programs were however, unavailable. The study illuminates the barriers and
opportunities associated with greening in the hospitality industry in Ghana.
