MORROW, Ga., June 5, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Beginning Sunday, the international community will turn its eyes toward the Hotel Schloss Elmau, nestled in the remote Ferchenbach Valley at the base of the snow-capped Wetterstein Mountains in the Bavarian Alps. This renowned five-star retreat will host the heads of state from the world's leading industrialized countries who will gather to discuss pressing issues in global politics.

Starting Sunday, the Schloss Elmau luxury hotel and spa will host the heads of state from the world's leading industrialized countries who will gather to discuss pressing issues in global politics.

The spacious master baths in the eleven tower and center suites offer stunning panoramic views of the majestic Wetterstein Mountains and provide the global summit's negotiating partners with the superior comfort of TOTO's NEOREST, which meets their individual needs with its myriad personal cleansing and comfort functions.

The 36 Washlet B100s in the junior suites and double rooms also offer outstanding levels of comfort and convenience after any bathroom break. Operated by a simple touch of their activation panel on the units' right side, diplomats may easily control the temperature and pressure of their warm-aerated water, self-cleaning dual-action spray, streamlined wand, and heated seat.

An ideal location for high-level discussions away from the public eye, this luxurious retreat offers the ultimate in accommodation and hospitality. Appointed with only the very best, the Hotel Schloss Elmau naturally selected TOTO NEORESTs and Washlets to grace all 47 suites and double rooms with their elegant, timeless design, helping create an exclusive atmosphere of luxury and comfort for the global summit's diplomats after their hours of negotiation.

"The NEOREST and Washlet products from Japan are the best on the market," explains hotelier Dietmar Muller-Elmau when asked about his choice. "Their timelessly modern design and outstanding comfort make them the perfect complement to our interior style."

The spacious master baths in the eleven tower and center suites offer stunning panoramic views of the surrounding mountain peaks and provide the summit's negotiating partners with the superior comfort of TOTO's NEOREST, which meets their individual needs with its myriad personal cleansing and comfort functions. Its sensor-activated lid responds by rising as they approach and closing when they leave. The NEOREST flushes automatically, and its seat may be heated to their desired temperature. The adjustable wand enables soothing warm-water personal cleansing, and the temperature and position of the warm-aerated water may be set to an individual world leader's preferences.

The 36 Washlet B100s in the junior suites and double rooms also offer outstanding levels of comfort and convenience after any bathroom break. The ergonomically contoured Washlet B100 provides soothing warm-aerated water to cleanse. Operated by a simple touch of its activation panel on the unit's right side, diplomats may easily control the temperature and pressure of the warm-aerated water, self-cleaning dual-action spray, streamlined wand, and heated seat.

For nearly 100 years, leading figures from the world of politics, academia and the arts have sought out the Hotel Schloss Elmau for its breathtaking views of the majestic Wetterstein Mountains and myriad cultural activities. Each year, Muller-Elmau invites guests to enjoy more than 200 readings, film exhibits and concerts. The summit's negotiating partners, their delegations and journalists from throughout the world most likely will not have the time to enjoy these world-class amenities or even the awe-inspiring beauty of the Bavarian Alps.

These delights will remain to be enjoyed by the Hotel Schloss Elmau's guests after the summit and beyond.
