Mark Twain in German-Language Newspapers and Periodicals

English translation of the 1875 ad for the Schloss-Hotel


I take the liberty of recommending my newly built castle hotel & restaurant with 80 rooms and salons, 4 large terraces, 5 small and large dining rooms, and I refrain from further advertising, as the location above the castle combined with the castle park, as well as the construction of the hotel (castle) itself surpasses any description. Pension all year round; 20 minutes drive to the train station. Large apartments should be booked in advance by letter or telegraph. Terraces and halls can be reserved for larger parties.
