Specially blended scents, own bakery or Pinterest design. Hotels are using different strategies to attract new guests. Hotel Bellevue in Český Krumlov decided to do it a bit differently. They focused on what the guests really needed, quality sleep. Using the Czech nanotechnology products they created a hotel room where even a person with severe allergies can sleep well.

In Europe, up to 40% of people suffer from respiratory allergies. Most of these are dust or pollen allergies. In the Czech Republic, there are up to 2.5 million allergy sufferers. Allergy is not a disease of one particular organ, but a total immune disorder in the sense of increased reactivity to some common stimuli, such as dust mites.

The air we breathe indoors contains large amounts of them, mite feces are among the major allergens for the development of bronchial asthma. As dust mites live in blankets, pillows, and mattresses, they have the greatest impact on the comfort of the allergy sufferer. The mattress itself can host up to 10 million dust mites. So, in the normal room, the allergy sufferer goes to sleep directly in a pile of allergens, it leads to severe respiratory problems.
