Frommer's Again?

I tried desperatly to purchase any other guidebook on Ireland other than Frommer's and Fodor's. But after an exhausting search Frommer's wins again: It has information found only in Frommer's. Reviews more variety of lodging and dining. Helps with ideas on side trips and day trips. Gives just enough inside information to help you make an informed decision on where to go stay and do. For an overview of Ireland, you can't go wrong with Frommer's. For more in depth on a single area.....You will need to do more research. Likewise, if you have a specific reason for the trip i.e. windsurfing or gaelic music a different format may help you. But for basic advice on travel Frommer's is hard to beat.

Great travel guide for Ireland

During an extended stay in Ireland I've used the guide a great deal for many different parts of the island, with an emphasis on the Dublin area. The maps of city centers are wonderful, the highlighted attractions are always as advertised, and the restaurant listings have been very reliable. It offers a great deal of depth, and the format makes it easy to find day trips from various cities you may be staying in. It's well worth noting that the hotel rates listed are generally rack rates, and you will frequently find them much lower when you call. Friends I've loaned the book to have agreed that it's the best one for the area that they've used. I'd recommend it highly to anyone considering a visit. Just don't forget your rain gear.
