Product Description
Product Description
Panoramically divided by the Danube, Budapest is one of Europe's most beautiful capitals. A grand metropolis of appealingly peeling facades, ornate bathhouses and classic coffeehouses, Hungary's idiosyncratic capital holds plenty to amuse the jaded Eurotraveller. As well as covering the city's art, sights and museums, this guide unearths the best places to eat, drink, sleep and shop.

A very disapointing guide to this great city. Most fundamentally, it is impossible to match the addresses listed for attractions with the extraordinarily useless map at the back of the book. Furthermore, the highly recommended restaurants and bars we visited bore no relation whatsoever to the descriptions in the book. Almost ruined our weekend, but not quite.

A mix of useful recommendations and smug commentary
30 Dec 2003
Bought this for a recent 5 day visit to Budapest.
On the positive side, it is very useful for finding restaurants and bars. The reviews are generally accurate. The layout of the book is fine, using the index became the primary way of locating information.
On the negative side, the book was very poor on providing what I would call 'travel' information; History of the city, places to see and do, getting around etc. I found many of the descriptions to be very condescending and patronizing and did not inspire us to visit anywhere. I gave up and bought the Lonely Planet Guide to Budapest which was much more useful.
We ended up using the two books which led to a great 5 days in Budapest!
