Previously I have used the time OUt guidebook to Paris and London both of which are very good. however, this one was not up to scratch. I also had LP NYC and found myself referring to this a lot more then Time Out. Maps were confusing, information about galleries and museums was scanty. The going out section was reasonable as was the shopping bit.
Cannot really comment about the hotel reviews as I picked my hotel after researching on the net.
Overall, an okay book but beaten in most aspects by LP NYC
