Review
'An unusual and rewarding guide' - Independent on Sunday (London), 'Cadogan are the pick of the bunch' - The Telegraph
'The very best series of travel books is the Cadogan Guides, miniature encyclopedias of not only practical information¿ but a treasure chest of information on the places you'll be visiting' - The Tennessean
From the Back Cover
This guide is packed with ideas - for sampling the best beers and bars, for a romantic weekend or for discovering the architectural gems. It takes you off the tourist trail to the Brussels only the locals know - from smoke-stained drinking dens to intimate jazz clubs. Our expert authors and local researchers give the lowdown on the city, from the stately squares and world-class art museums to the cobbled backstreets. 76 hotels and 120 restaurants and 62 bars, plus clubs, music venues and puppet shows are all personally reviewed.There are 17 detailed maps, plus 12 pages of full-color maps with grid-references to help you find every sight and recommendation in the guide. You will also find guided walks and itineraries that take you shopping, on an Art Nouveau tour and out to the green oases surrounding the city. (5 x 8 1/2, 304 pages, color photos, maps)

GREAT TRAVEL BOOK,
By
This review is from: Brussels (Eyewitness Travel Guides) (Turtleback)
This was an indispensable tool my navigation of Belgium. I also purchased the Top 10, published by DK just so I would not miss anything. I liked the large maps and the clear directions to the venues. The pictures were GREAT. This book greatly enhanced my journey.

Good to Whet the Appetite,

This review is from: Brussels (Eyewitness Travel Guides) (Paperback)
Not a bad book while planning a visit but once there I found it less useful. The maps are awful and some of the recommendations seemed dated. Generally DK Guides are well illustrated and can provide a good feel for a city before getting there helping to focus on which sights to prioritize and this book on Belgium was no exception in that regard.

The best travel book around!,

This review is from: Brussels (Eyewitness Travel Guides) (Turtleback)
DK guides are by far the best for any trip -- their black-by-block walking guides just can't be beat.
