Book Description

September 27, 2011 Frommer's Complete Guides
  • Free full-color, foldout map
  • Insider advice from our author, a local expert who hits all the highlights, from the Sunset Strip to the Los Angeles County Museum of Art. She's checked out all the city's best hotels and restaurants in person, and offers authoritative, candid reviews that will help you find the choices that suit your tastes and budget. You'll also get up-to-the-minute coverage of shopping, spas, and nightlife; in-depth coverage of Disneyland and Knott's Berry Farm; and advice on side trips to Long Beach, the South Coast, and Santa Catalina Island.
  • Where to find the best hotels at every price point, the newest restaurants and food trucks, the best free experiences including free museum hours, the best surfing beaches, the most scenic drives, plus how to land a spot on a gameshow.
  • Insightful commentary on navigating the roads, including where not to drive and when--plus tips on everything from navigating museums to spotting celebrities.

  • Exact prices listed for every establishment and activity--no other guides offer such detailed, candid reviews of hotels and restaurants. We include the very best, but also emphasize moderately priced choices for real people.

4.0 out of 5 stars Decent but biased... October 16, 2012
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
This book like all of the other Frommer's books tell you all about the city that's on the title page. This book tells you all the great sites, hotels, museums, restuarants, etc in Los Angeles. But however the opinions in this book are pretty biased. There are some recommendations based on the author's own preferences but you may not agree with them though. It's a good travel book but I also say buy others to see what they say about the places mentioned. Also, be warned some of the prices are somewhat off, and I know that's in part because of the time this book was published so take all of them with a grain of salt and look up the places before you go to see the actual prices instead of going by the ones in this book.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good May 25, 2012
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
Frommer's guide books are the best all around travel guides. Their restaurant and hotel recommendations are right on. With LA being the target for this book, it is a harder subject. LA is so spread out and so much of what people go to LA for isn't in LA proper. This books does cover well all the greater LA area but the vast region is still a challenge to cover in one moderately size book. That being said, this is still the best around, I think. The restaurant guides in Frommer's have never failed me and I am a very discerning diner and foodie.
