Customer Reviews

frommers madrid

book arrived very soon, and in great condition. would order from this person again. thank you

Great book. Very informative and easy to read!

This is a great guidebook. It is very informative and easy to read. The only negative I have is that the interior pages aren't in color and aren't high-quality, gloss paper. Everything in the book is great. I had a Fodor's book for Barcelona, and this Frommer's book was far better.

Overall, good guide

We bought this book for our trip to Madrid. The restaurant reviews were mostly dead on, but the review of our hotel forgot to mention that the hotel charged 10 Euro/day for TV (Gran Hotel Conde Dueque). DO NOT rely on the maps in the book, they're not accurate and have some of the Metro stops several blocks off. We had a great time by following suggestions in the book and would buy it again.

Great book for a great vacation.

I went to Madrid by myself last year and relied on this book for most things. I had a great time!!!! The maps and walking tours gave me a good sense of the city to then go back and explore on my own and the night spots that I chose from the book were a lot of fun and I met very nice people.
