Great book! Date: 2008-11-10 Rating: 10 out of 10
I just returned from my trip to NYC. This little book proved to be well worth the money. It was well organized and easy to use. I did a few of the suggested neighbourhood walks and they were great. I did not try any of the retaurant recommendations though, but in NYC there is so many food options they can only really scratch the surface in a book like this. I did check out several of the attractions and enjoyed all of them. Lonely Planet hits another one out of the park!
BewertungenLonely Planet - Useful, as always11Datum 2008-07-13 Rang: 8 von 10I've always used Lonely Planet travel guides in my travels. There's way more to NYC than a guidebook could ever cover but Lonely Planet did a great job as it always does. It's always good to know that I can trust LP to provide the basic information regarding how to get to/from the airport, transportation around the city as well as other information regarding sights and restaurants.Good guide, but double-check the mapsDatum 2007-09-06 Rang: 8 von 10I had to buy this book at the last minute, due to the fact that I wasn't contented with the format and information that New York (Eyewitness Travel Guides) had, which I borrowed from a friend. And I was fairly contented with the amount of information that LP has for this book. It has a detailed coverage of Manhattan and its neighborhoods, and it covers areas outside Manhattan more extensively than the other book.
The one complaint I have about this edition is that they do not double-check the maps. The map at p. 282 especially is at fault. For example, the Majestic Theater is at w 44th St. but the map lists it as somewhere in 41st St. Perhaps somebody forgot to proofread the maps this time.OK but you don't need itDatum 2007-08-28 Rang: 6 von 10If you live near by and go frequently then maybe this book would be of use. Complete NYC guideDatum 2007-05-13 Rang: 8 von 10Typical LP style guide, it contains interesting city tours and brief descriptions of many touristic and non touristic spots in the city.
