From Vision to Reality: How MM:NT Berlin Lab Mastered Hospitality Efficiency

GUEST EXPERIENCE

The award-winning MM:NT Berlin Lab began as a testbed for hospitality technologies in a former retail space linked to a TFE Hotels property in Berlin. Initially a tech showcase, it evolved into the MM:NT brand — an innovative concept centred on future travel, digitalisation, minimalist design, conscious choices, and local partnerships. With just six rooms offering cutting-edge guest experiences, MM:NT Berlin Lab now stands as a model for future expansions and fresh approaches to hospitality.

Why it matters: The partnership with LIKE MAGIC empowered MM:NT Berlin Lab to deliver efficient, contactless hospitality with minimal staffing. By consolidating tools, simplifying processes, and enabling seamless guest experiences, MM:NT Berlin Lab has become a benchmark for the future of hospitality innovation.

LIKE MAGIC’s platform offers MM:NT Berlin Lab a comprehensive solution that integrates various hospitality operations into a single, user-friendly system. This integration facilitates contactless guest experiences, such as online check-in and digital key access, enhancing guest satisfaction. The platform’s intuitive design simplifies staff onboarding, enabling employees unfamiliar with hospitality operations to efficiently manage tasks after minimal training. By consolidating tools like property management systems and payment processing into one dashboard, LIKE MAGIC streamlines operations, reduces staffing requirements, and maintains high occupancy rates.

We can literally hand it to someone who’s never worked in a hotel before, and within half an hour they grasp how to help guests — something unthinkable with traditional systems."
