The Rough Guide to Vienna is the ultimate guide to Austria’s dazzling capital city. This new edition includes a full-colour section showcasing Vienna’s highlights, from the magnificent gothic cathedral to the monumental imperial boulevards of the Ringstrasse. The following chapters give evocative accounts of all the sights, from the Hapsburg palaces to the cutting-edge galleries of the new Museums Quartier. For every district there are up-to-the-minute reviews of the city’s best hotels, restaurants, bars and classic coffeehouses. Beyond the city, the guide gives lively accounts of day-trips to the spa town of Baden, the monastery at Klosterneuberg and elsewhere. Maps and plans accompany every chapter and the ''contexts'' section gives an informed commentary on Vienna’s history, musical heritage and contemporary culture.

Customer Rating: 
Summary: Slightly disappointing
Comment: I find the Rough Guide to Vienna not particularly "rough" - except as far as some of the information it contains is inaccurate or outdated. Other than that, it mostly concentrates on the tourist spots and does not even attempt to give readers or visitors the greater picture of things. It's not a bad guide, but it gives you only a very limited picture of what this city is all about. I was quite disappointed.Buy the TimeOut Guide to Vienna instead.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Informative, fun, and opinionated
Comment: I found this book to be highly valuable in my trip to Vienna. I found the restaurant and hotel descriptions, short, useful, and (at least for the restaurants that I went to) spot-on. The guides to the various sites (Belvedere, Schoenbrunn, etc.) are also informative, and somewhat opinionated, which different readers will find either useful or irritating. All in all, definitely worth the money.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Simply the best.
Comment: I planned a recent trip to Vienna w/ this guide & it proved indispensable. Sharp, concise, fun & up-to-date - The Rough Guides are the best.
