4.0 out of 5 stars helpful guidebook
This book provided a good introduction to the city of Edinburgh, though the part I used the most and found most helpful was the map section in the back. The maps are very detailed and were extrememly useful to me as I navigated the streets of the city.

2.0 out of 5 stars Unfortunately, this books lacks the quality of other LP's.
This guide to Edinburgh unfortunately lacks the quality we're used from Lonely Planet. I couldn't taste any commitment of the author to the subject, it almost looks like that the author wrote the guide during an afternoon visit. Surprisingly, many very interesting features of Edinburgh are not included, like the Botanical Gardens. Many other features are decribed too...

2.0 out of 5 stars Unfortunately, this books lacks the quality of other LP's., October 13, 1999
This review is from: Lonely Planet Edinburgh (Edinburgh, 1st ed) (Paperback)
This guide to Edinburgh unfortunately lacks the quality we're used from Lonely Planet. I couldn't taste any commitment of the author to the subject, it almost looks like that the author wrote the guide during an afternoon visit. Surprisingly, many very interesting features of Edinburgh are not included, like the Botanical Gardens. Many other features are decribed too briefly. When looking for a guide of the town, step into a local bookstore en look for the locally issued handbook of Edinburgh, published bij Mercat Press. It's good souvenir too.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great book and major overhaul, February 8, 2002
Not only is this book witty, it covers all the city sights and is very useful. This book is written by a different author from the first edition and the change is phenomenal. This book is definitely recommended - the colourful festivals section is totally cool.
