5.0 out of 5 stars Knopf Guides
Each Knopf Guide contains all essential travel information plus being a beautiful souvenir art book. The more than 1,000 color illustrations make these the travel guides to keep.

1.0 out of 5 stars Incredibly difficult to use for short 2 day stay in Budapest
While the book seemed to have a good amount of detail once you knew where you were going, finding out the most important places to go and how to get there proved incredibly difficult.

This review is from: Knopf Guide: Budapest (Knopf Guides) (Paperback)
While the book seemed to have a good amount of detail once you knew where you were going, finding out the most important places to go and how to get there proved incredibly difficult.

1. no summary of "star" must-see sites

2. no comprehensive map that has city-wide street level detail and overlay of subway (all these maps are available, but on different pages and different sections of the book)

The book just seemed to miss the boat on a number of other things, too, and was just painfully frustrating to use.

Other Knopf books (like for Prague) seem to be ok.
