121.Rome (CitySpots) (CitySpots) (CitySpots) by: Thomas Cook February 22, 2007
Average Rating: >>More Details		List Price: £5.99 Off The Bookshelf's Price: £4.79 You Save: £1.20 (20%) Prices subject to change. Used Price: £0.45
I bought this quickly without the help of any reviews, just because with a name like Thomas Cook I expected it to be okay. Hopefully I can warn others. It's hopeless. Going to a new city you need decent maps to guide you. This has three but they are all the same! Shifted slightly with different titles. The writing is so small you would be unable to find anywhere without 20:20 vision in bright sunlight. There is no grid or key to find places of interest. On the map suppose to show the Spanish Steps there is a arrow pointing off the map! The only things marked clearly are places to eat - I suppose because they sponsor the publication. I've had to buy another guide before my trip. Most of the others I've since looked at are much better ... Read More:

127.The Unofficial Guide to Central Italy: Florence, Rome, Tuscany and Umbria (Unofficial Guides) by: Melanie Mize Renzulli April 01, 2008
Average Rating: >>More Details		List Price: £14.99 Off The Bookshelf's Price: £9.89 You Save: £5.10 (34%) Prices subject to change. Used Price: £9.87
I bought this book hoping that it would give me all the things it promises on its cover. I was very disappointed with what it actually had to offer. The hotel listings are very poor in number and choice and only show one type of accommodation, which is the standard hotel. There are so many more options in Italy such as b&bs, castels, villas, farmhouses etc. It would be nice to have a good selection of each. Also it only seemed to be concentrating on the major cities leaving out a whole range of places located in the lovely Tuscan and Umbrian countryside. I also found that the information given was not always reliable. In fact one hotel we stayed in in Rome turned out to be very different from the discription given in the book. As for the restaurants ... Read More:

128.Pocket Rome (Fodor's Pocket Guide to Rome) by: Eugene Fodor February 14, 2002
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: £1.51
We chose this book for our week-long holiday in Rome a few years ago because it said on the front "What to see and do if you can't stay long". Right from the beginning we found it both interesting and helpful. We used the "Lodging" chapter to choose our hotel and because it was divided into geographical areas we were able to choose one within walking distance of the station. The price indicators for Lodging and Dining are very useful (and accurate) too, particularly if like us you are on a tight budget and still want to enjoy your stay. When we arrived in Rome we were glad to have the "Essential Information" chapter to help with which train to catch from the airport, and how to buy a travel ticket for the whole week. All the sections entititled ... Read More:

An excellent guide to Rome for those on a weekend break. The top 25 sights guide is an excellent way of cherry picking the delights of the city.

This is a delightful, practical but amusing book providing helpful and insightful advice for the global (business) traveller; it covers a wide range of topics from business ethics to meal-time etiquette and how generally to avoid cultural gaffes; Ms Oloffson has covered all the angles.
