Zoku Is Officially a Global B Corp
September 16, 2025
As a globally B Corp-certified, sustainable hotel brand, Zoku has solidified its commitment to doing business for good.

Celebrating a Big Step Toward Better Hospitality
In 2018, Zoku Amsterdam became one of the first hotels in the world to earn B Corp certification: a bold step toward reimagining what responsible hospitality can look like. Fast forward to 2025, and we’re proud to say that all four Zoku properties are now officially B Corp certified.
From Amsterdam, Copenhagen and Vienna to our newest home in Paris, this global certification marks a significant milestone in our commitment to doing business for good.
Why B Corp Matters
B Corp certification is about more than just checking boxes. It’s about building a business that balances profit and purpose: one that considers the impact of every decision on our team, our guests, our communities and the planet. It is the foundation of what it means to be a truly sustainable hotel.
To get certified, we went through an extensive review with B Lab, the nonprofit that started the whole B Corp movement. They looked at how we’re doing across five areas: Governance, Workers, Community, Environment and Customers.
How Zoku Scored
While meeting all requirements to achieve B Corp certification, we’re proud to have outperformed global benchmarks in several key areas that are core to who we are:
🌱 Environment: 27.7 out of 45
From energy-saving design and local sourcing to cutting down on waste, we’re always looking for smarter, greener ways to run our operations.
💼 Workers: 24.5 out of 40
Our culture is all about diversity, wellbeing, growth and fair employment, making sure everyone at Zoku feels supported and included.
👥 Customers: 3.6 out of 5
Your experience comes first. We focus on integrity, safety, and making sure every stay with us is a positive one.
What This Means for You
Whether you’re staying for one night or several months, hosting a rooftop brainstorm or grabbing dinner in our Living Kitchen, your choice to engage with Zoku supports a business that’s working toward a better future.
This certification isn’t the end of a journey. It’s a promise to keep going. To do better. And to lead by example in an industry that has the power to make meaningful change.
