Abstract
With the global promotion of the low-carbon economy concept, green tourism hotels, as a new hotel management model, are receiving increasing attention from both consumers and the industry. The low-carbon economy advocates for the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions, improved energy efficiency, and the promotion of sustainable development. Against this backdrop, green tourism hotels aim to achieve a win-win situation for ecological protection and economic benefits by optimizing management, innovating services, and applying green technologies. This paper explores optimization strategies for green tourism hotel management under the low-carbon economy framework. It first analyzes the relationship between the low-carbon economy and green tourism hotel management, then summarizes the current status and challenges in green tourism hotel management, and proposes optimization strategies in areas such as energy management, green procurement, waste disposal, and customer engagement. Finally, through case analysis, it demonstrates practical management practices for green tourism hotels in a low-carbon economy, providing hotel managers with feasible improvement paths. The findings offer theoretical support and practical guidance for the transformation and sustainable development of the hotel industry in the low-carbon economy era.
