Medieval Charm

Challenge 

Grand Hotel Karel V is a unique 5-star hotel in the historic center of Utrecht, the Netherlands. The complex, with its beautiful gardens, was built in the 14th century. The hotel has a 121 luxury rooms and 13 multi-functional spaces with a capacity up to 150 people.

Legrand partner, Avex, updated the medieval hotel with the latest audiovisual solutions during a recent renovation. The goal of the hotel was to enrich the digital experience for guests and so give them something more than they would get in their homes or offices.

Solution

In the conference rooms, a projection screen was needed to complement the high-end design of the room. For this, the Projecta Tensioned Elpro Concept was chosen, a projection screen with a stylish casing and appearance.

The tab-tensioned projection screen provides a perfectly flat projection surface to match the high-resolution projector used.

Results 

“This project, together with Avex, proves that a monumental building in a historic setting can work perfectly with the latest audiovisual products,” said Toon Naber, General Manager.
