A must have for tourists, but missing some helpful information March 27, 2007 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
We went to London in January 2007. I was so glad we bought this book, as we constantly referred to the maps (in the book and the tear-out pocket map). The lists and descriptions of things to do around London were priceless, as were the suggestions. I relied on the maps of the different parts of the city to find our way around to the lesser known places or when we got a little off course. This was my 3rd time visiting London, so I wanted to see a few things that were off the beaten path and not the typical sites to see. The maps and book helped guide us through all the different parts of the city.
The only thing I wish it had were more hotel reviews and restaurant reviews. Fortunately, with the internet, researching those topics is fairly easy. We had free internet access in the hotel we stayed at in Westminster (the City Inn Westminster, I think it was).
Awesome, a must have... March 9, 2007 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
This book is very comprehensive, definately a "Must Have" for your First (or any) trip to London. We just got back and could not have seen everything we wanted to, without it. The Suggested Itineraries section is AWESOME. it gives you a 1, 2 or 3 day turn by turn way to walk through the city to make ensure you get to see everything. You can find lots of this information on Frommer's website too for free, but having the book with you is the only way to go.
Great Planning Book August 30, 2006 This book showed me a great view of what to do and see in London. I have been slowly planning my trip for awhile and this book is the cornerstone to that planning. The only thing I wish though was that they showed more pictures of the things in the book.
Good solid travel guide July 2, 2006 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Frommer's does a solid travel guide, and I will definitely purchase these again. I especially like that they come out with new books every year that are always up-to-date.
Low quality information May 11, 2005 0 out of 19 found this review helpful
Have listed at least one non-existing restaurant in London. The other suggested restaurant had a different name from the one specified in the Guide. We almost went hungry. Do not buy this book.
