Very Lost in Translation

4. NOV 2008

I’m going on holiday in a few weeks to Argentina which I’m really looking forward to. So I’ve been trauling through loads of sites to find hotels, hostels and things to do. I have been getting pretty frustrated at some of the sites, so many seem not to work, but one thing that’s quite common and understandable at that, are the poor translation services that are offered for the English language version of the site.

However this description for a hotel in Buenos Aires makes it all alright – what a gem. It is by far the best and funniest translation I’ve ever come acrross.

Alpenhaus

Lain in the unique island landscape, in the Tigre, directly before the doors of the world metropolis Buenos Aires, the idylische restaurant and hotel “alpine house” are appropriate for the Parana delta.

The Parana delta is a fantastic combination of Venice and the Spreewald. Many small devoured rivers by close trees surrounded load endlessly here to dream in.

One can explore this world by a boat trip (boats similarly as the venezianischen Vaporettos) or with the paddle boat. Visit in this Paradies the “alpine house”. Here catering trade and accommodation for the fastidious customer are ordered.

Let spoil are it that them the many house-made specialities (sauerkraut with rib, potato fritter with apple mash, liver cheese etc.…) and the excellent Austrian confectionery (e.g. apple-wobble, Sachertorte, Schwarzwälderkirschtorte etc.…) enjoy, a ice-cold off Warsteiner beer directly from the barrel drink, simply at the crystal-clear Swimmingpool switch or a relaxvolle Massage gotten.

A secret tip is to leave itself equal for a few days in one of the first-class Bungalows down.

Do you want more “Action”? Thus you try nevertheless times water ski, paddles you by the unique dream world you surrounded or train you in the small Fitnessraum.
