3.0 out of 5 stars This book is a mess!, March 31, 2000

I can't imagine how this book ever made to the printing stage! How could the editors have failed to notice that references to page numbers throughout the book and the entire index are innaccurate? Also, the organization of the book leaves much to be desired. I used the Paris guide on a trip to that city and found it useful, well organized and mostly accurate. Both are certainly interesting reading, but the London guide desperately needs a new copyeditor!

4.0 out of 5 stars Pros outweight the cons., November 11, 2000

Although this book may not always be helpful when you are preparing your trip, it served me pretty well once I was already there. An easily accesible tube map is a plus. The street maps may not always be clearly labeled, but they are sufficient to allow someone with a decent sense of direction to get from point A to point B. The listing of attractions is reasonably complete and accurate. However, the list of lodgings is not. An exhaustive list is certainly impossible to publish in any guide book. However, this book lists only a handful of hotels in each neighborhood. Your best bet finding a place to stay is probably to consult another travel book at a library, or to browse for one on the internet. All in all, though, I was satified with this book and will consider buying others from this series when I travel in the future.
