Hotel je poimenoval z imenom Slon (Zum Elephanten). Imel je 11 sob, veliko dvorano, primerno za zabavne in druge prireditve, biljardnico in veliko tujih časopisov. Poleti so postregli tudi na vrtu. V hotelu se je zbirala visoka celjska nemška družba, saj je bil tu sedež nemškega društva Kazina. V restavraciji hotela je ob nedeljah igrala godba; celjski Nemci so namreč imeli kvaliteten godbeni sestav. Nemško godbeno društvo in gojenci celjske glasbene šole (Cillier Musikverein) so na svoje vsakoletne koncerte privabili v hotel veliko poslušalcev. Leta 1907 je hotel kupila znana celjska družina Rakusch in ga spremenila v Železni dvor – trgovino z železnino. Prireditve celjskih Nemcev so se že leto prej preselile v novozgrajeno Nemško hišo (Deutsches Haus), današnji Celjski dom.
