5.0 out of 5 stars Good book, lots of information., July 1, 2008

By	Thomas R. Johns "TJRox" (Allentown, PA.) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: Fodor's Bermuda 2008 (Fodor's Gold Guides) (Paperback)

If you're like me, you had already decided you were going to Bermuda by the time you bought this book. That made the part of the book that described the hotels not worth much too us, since we had already booked our hotel. But I will tell you that the restaurant guide alone is worth the price of this book. It details a lot (not all) of the restaurants in Bermuda, gives you an idea of the pricing and the type of food. Food is very, very expensive in Bermuda and can significantly add to the price of your vacation. There are few to none all-inclusive resorts in Bermuda, so you are going to have to buy food. We were able to use this guide, and plan out our meals, picking one very nice restaurant our last night, and mid priced family type restaurants the rest of our stay. It also has good info on the attractions. For these reasons, I gave this book five stars.

1.0 out of 5 stars Needs an Update, July 27, 2008

By	Joseph F. Yemma - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: Fodor's Bermuda 2008 (Fodor's Gold Guides) (Paperback)

We bought this book for the restaurant reviews alone as we had already picked out our hotel. We flagged 6 restaurants before we left that seemed both interesting and reasonably priced. One (Port O Call) didn't exist at 87 Front Street as the book said, a second (Traditions) was closed until september 15 and a 3rd (Henry VIII) did not have the toffee dessert (my favorite) that the book touted. The Waterlot Inn, Pickled Onion and especially the Lobster Pot were as good or better than I expected. With very expensive prices at the Fairmont Southampton ($29 per person for a bootleg breakfast buffet) a good restaurant guide is imperative and Fodor"s is not that.
