Things you should know

I found that this book was very helpfull but you need to update every six months. There are a lot of better places to stay that you can get from the tourist information desk at the train stations.I want to recommend the Hotel Cervo just outside Malpensa Airport in Milan. It is a great value with excelent friendly service and a free shuttle service to the airport!

Down and Dirty

This book is wonderful for the traveller who is doing the home base approach or who is going to primarily big cities. The advantage of making a big city your home base is that they are often hubs for rail lines and often offer a good dose of European art and cultural events. Although the rooms listed in Frommer's are a bit pricey, I found them to be safe and reliable. The maps are terrific and the book is very user friendly. This is one book where it pays to buy the new issue each year. The hotel/pensions listed change almost every year. I took the new book and pieces from the old book as well. All information was reliable.A feature Frommer's contains that Î particularly like is a down and dirty list of what things cost. How much will a coke cost you in local currency? What is that in dollars? How much is a massage or a museum? Very useful!

Be lost without it!

Full of the latest prices, hottest places to go for the new century. A travel guide that helped me see all that I wanted to see without getting lost. A must have for European travel!
