This study aims to analyze the implementation of green purchasing at Hotel X, a five-star resort located in Bali, as part of its commitment to environmental sustainability. The research adopts a qualitative case study approach through in-depth interviews, field observations, and documentation. The findings indicate that Hotel X has integrated green purchasing practices into its procurement policy, guided by an internal document titled Section D: Sustainability Commitment. Most supplier selection indicators—such as eco-labeling, environmental auditing, and environmentally friendly packaging—have been adopted, although the implementation remains inconsistent across all suppliers. Furthermore, the procurement process incorporates the principles of Reduce, Reuse, and Recycle (3R), showing the hotel’s effort to minimize environmental impact through collaboration with sustainable suppliers. The implementation of green purchasing not only aligns with sustainability goals but also contributes to long-term operational cost efficiency. This research demonstrates that green procurement practices can serve as an effective strategy in achieving environmental legitimacy and competitive advantage in the hospitality industry
