Review
'The answer to every short-breaker's dream. Small, perfectly formed - they fit into pockets of jeans or jackets - they contain almost everything one needs to know...The jewel-coloured guides look beautiful and are exquisitely designed. Even a geographically challenged dolt like me stands a chance of finding my way around Shanghai with the simple map at the back of the book.'
Product Description
Compiled by the magazine's travel experts, and by the extraordinary network of international correspondents, the guides are truly the insider's guide to each featured city. Both people who live there, as well as the well-travelled editorial team of Wallpaper, have put their heads together to come up with a fascinating, efficient guide that keeps the hip, urban traveler with his/her finger on the pulse. "The Wallpaper City Guides" are especially useful for the weekend tourist, and the business traveller. If you only have 24 hours to discover a city, each guide offers an exact hour-to-hour plan of what to see, eat, and purchase. For those travelling for a weekend, the guides even go as far as to tell you what you could see for a day-trip outside the city. "The City Guides" are being published as Wallpaper magazine celebrates its 10th anniversary. For a decade, Wallpaper has been the first to uncover and present enticingly the best in new design and urban travel spots from across the globe. "The City Guides" are the perfect way to present a decade of experience in one precisely edited guide to each of the 40 cities to be published in 2007.

Format:Paperback
We travelled around the USA on our honeymoon and the San Fransisco guide was fantastic. We visited every place recommended from visiting Alcatraz to coffee at the small coffee shops near Chinatown, one of the best guides available.
Format:Paperback
I love the concept of the Wallpaper Guides - guides for the discerning design-conscious tourist - and buy one whenever they are available for the cities I visit. So far, the San Francisco guide has been the best. The places it suggests are varied, from the obvious tourist attractions like Alcatraz and Cliff House to bars and restaurants that you might otherwise miss. Where this guide is better than the others (and this may be to do with the nature of San Francisco itself) is that while the places mentioned may be stylish/fashionable/interesting etc, they weren't at all pretentious or intimidating. Thanks to this guide we discovered some bars and cafes that we would return to time and time again on subsequent trips to San Francisco.

Very disappointing guide. No real information for tourists, nothing about transport and hotels far too expensive.
