4.0 out of 5 stars A good guide which also includes the travelling basics, 12 May 2001
By A Customer
If your stay is short and this is your first visit, it's a good idea to stick closely to the beaten tourist trails as marked down by Lonely Planet. Topped and tailed by their standard guidance on what to expect as a visitor to the country there is a reliable core of guidance and information which would form the basis of a rewarding first visit to Edinburgh, together with more wide-ranging sketches of outlying areas as far afield as the Borders. The Edinburgh guide is fairly recent, having been first published in 1999 and so most of the associated information on accommodation and where to eat is well up-to-date.

2.0 out of 5 stars Unreliable, 21 Mar 2006
By A Customer
This review is from: Edinburgh (Lonely Planet) (Paperback)
Being a fan of the Lonely Planet series, i thought this would be ideal for a weekend away in Edinburgh. However, i was sorely disappointed with the information provided in this guidebook. It is only a couple of years old, yet much of the information is out of date, meaning we often went in search of resturants that were not longer there. The reviews also tended to be misleading; many of the pubs which got excellent write-ups were very ordinary and some others weren't given the credit they deserved. All in all this guide, as with all Lonely Planet guides, crams a lot of information into a compact book, however this was not always reliable and will make me think twice when i buy my next travel guide.
