Mandarin Oriental Prague, Czech Republic
In the heart of Prague, near Karlsbrücke,
the Mandarin-Oriental five-star hotel
was born after a complete renovation
of the “Karmelitska” medieval cloister.
The historical, 500-year-old walls
now accommodate 99 deluxe rooms
and 22 exclusive suites. The historical
building that’s protected by a preservation
order incorporates all state of
the art technology that a luxury hotel
can offer. Among the technology is the
Merten System M with a combination
of classy matt and polar white inserts
with Merten M-Star frames in satin
