This review is from: Fodor's Family New York City with Kids, 1st Edition (Travel Guide) (Paperback)
While some guidebooks seem to be written by someone on assignment, it is clear that the author of this book is passionate about New York and that she really knows the ins and outs of where to go, what to see, and where to eat with kids in the Big Apple. I especially like the "Bad Weather Plans" section that details fun indoor activities and the "If Your Kid Likes" section that tells you where to go if your child likes dinosaurs, princesses or techno gadgets, for example. For the various New York City neighborhoods, the book provides a quick at-a-glance listing of attractions and necessities, like fun stores for kids and even where to find public bathrooms with changing tables! The age guides for attractions are handy too - telling you, for example, that a visit to the Chrysler Building is best for ages 7+up.

5.0 out of 5 stars Reviews are spot-on!, August 9, 2010

This review is from: Fodor's Family New York City with Kids, 1st Edition (Travel Guide) (Paperback)
I relied on this book for a hotel recommendation, which I booked six months ago for this past weekend. The hotel (Loews Regency) was exactly as described within the book. My four kids were comfortable, the staff was great, and we had a wonderful weekend; never before have we had such luck in finding a great place to stay! The descriptions of restaurants and places to visit were spot-on, too.

If you are traveling with children, this is the book about Manhattan for you!
