Best Places Seattle,
By A Customer
This review is from: Best Places Seattle: The Most Discriminating Guide to Seattle's Restaurants, Shops, Hotels, Nightlife, Arts, Sights, & Outings (Paperback)
When my job sent me to Seattle last summer, I searched for a unique guidebook for the city. Unwilling to settle for one of the national guides, I was pleased to discover Best Places Seattle. It is published in Seattle by locals. A particularly helpful section is Top 200 Restaurants and Lodgings which has star ratings (much like Amazon!) Another good feature is the Uniquely Seattle icon beside selected entries to signify places that are unique and special to the city. Other sections include: Lay of the City (getting around), Exploring (attractions), Shopping, Performing Arts, Nightlife, Day Trips, Recreation and others. Entries are referenced on a fold-out map in the front. This map has downtown Seattle on one side and Greater Seattle on the other. These entries also provide the reader with a paragraph description of each place. I practically had this book open the whole time I was in Seattle since it provided me valuable information, especially on restaurants. The book stands by its reviews of restaurants and lodgings and has a whole page devoted to instructions for receiving a book refund if you are misled by them. I must mention that there are no photos in this guidebook, but I don't think they are really needed since the book is so descriptive. I highly recommend this guidebook if you are planning a trip to Seattle.

Planning our vacation in and around Seattle was going to be interesting since I had never been there and had no tips and referances to go by. I searched on Amazon.com, and found some interesting books with lot's of tips. I chose the Best Places in Seattle book and once I had received it I fall in love with it. It is very detailed and informative and thanks to this book,I had hotel rooms booked and wonderful ideas of how we were going to spoil ourselfs with fantastic food in wonderful restaurants and of course all the highlights of Seattle were well explained in the book as well. Once we got there it was easy.. the book offeres a map,of the loctions of the hotel and palces to go and really it was a breeze for us to find our way around and let me tell you, the hotels were no dissapointment and the restaurants wonderful. I recommend this book to everyone. The author really wrote it as it is and the star rating of the hotels and more are really fantastic and a big help.She also makes a point to inform you of small details , for example, if the hotel has AC or not or if the service is nice and which floor offers the better view and such. That really is important for some people I am sure. This book helped us a lot to enjoy a wonderful vacation and we will be back. Enjoy Seattle and with this book you will.

I'm in debt to this book - I've been using its earlier edition for three years since I moved to Seattle, and it's still the first place I turn to when I want to find something new to do on a weekend. There are entries about the best lodgings, cafes, coffee places, theaters of all kinds including indie. And of course, this being a book about Pacific Northwest, it contains the most complete guide to all the places to visit around Seattle: islands, mountains, places to ski and hike and bike. Whether you live in Seattle or you're just visiting, you will not do better than choosing this book to help you explore this beautiful city. I know I wouldn't have enjoyed my time here nearly as much without it.
