At Home with Royalty by Schiffer Publishing

Fulfilled by our friends at Schiffer Publishing

Who hasn’t dreamed of spending a night in a castle? A heavenly bed, creaking floorboards, silk wallpaper, glittering chandeliers, expansive grounds, and, for good measure, discreet service, fulfilling wishes before you have said a word.

Anyone looking for a bit of luxury treatment will find the perfect opportunity in one of Europe’s many historic castles: numerous ones have been converted into excellent hotels, where guests are considered royalty.

This book transports you to elegant lords’ homes and extensive vineyards, offering a glimpse behind medieval walls and into baroque staterooms.  Its pages are sumptuously filled with nearly 500 magnificent images, castle hotel-booking information, historical and cultural anecdotes, hotel gastronomy overviews, and more. Travel to historic country estates with walls that tell stories of times when these were homes for high nobility and where guests can still feel like royalty today.[AuthorName]By Katinka Holupirek and Laura Joppien[/AuthorName][AuthorBio]Janina and Markus Meier are a Bavarian mountaineering couple.
