Rick Steves' Best of Europe 2005 (Rick Steves' Best of Europe)

Rating:
Summary: A good overview
Review: This book is a good overview on many destinations in Europe. However, it is probably a good idea to do more research on the places you plan to visit as this book never has the chance to get too in depth on any single place. It also gives you Rick Steve's singular personal opinion on subjects that may be a question of personal preference. For example,in the chapter on London, the Author clearly likes charming bed and breakfast type establishments and very small hotels and never even addresses any other types of hotels. Not a word about a hyatt, hilton or marriott. Perhaps there is not enough room to cover these subjects in such detail for every city. His detail on the sites of each city are very good with great tips on getting around each city.
