Synopsis

"The Rough Guide to Budapest" is the ultimate guide to this fascinating city. The 20-page, full-colour section will inspire you on where to go and what to see, from the magnificent Parliament building to the atmospheric Jewish quarter. In addition, there are two, new, 4-page inserts: Budapest's Baths' and Musical Traditions. The new author picks' section of all the city's finest hotels and restaurants, will help you decide on the best places to stay, eat and drink, for all budgets. There is extensive coverage of major new museums and attractions, including the Natural History Museum, the Palace of Arts complex and the Holocaust Memorial Centre. The guide also includes details on excursions to nearby Szentendre and Esxtergom and comes complete with detailed maps for the entire city.

Summary: Good history section - poor maps
Comment: This guide book could be improved in many respects. Budapest has a wonderful public transportation system that is relatively easy to use when quality maps are available. Unfortunately this guide book's overall city maps are bare bones. Small detailed maps of specific locations are generally thorough, but need to include the names of more side streets in the parts of the city where the streets meander.
The historical details and backgrounds of buildings and sites is quite helpful, but the info as to how to get there needs improving. The page design and chapter title on the side of each page is helpful when thumbing through, but I don't recommend this edition.

Summary: Difficult to use and lacking vs Lonely Planet
Comment: I will admit that I am normally a Lonely Planet person, but I decided to try this one for a change. And since it was just for one city, how bad could it be....? Well, I thought it s**ked!! Poor layout, no comprehensive city map (just detailed section maps and a very vague overview map) made it difficult to navigate from one district to another. Also, for a guide on JUST ONE city it was very sparse in terms of places to stay and places to eat. I will never go with Rough Guide again without first carefully checking it out Before I buy. It just did not have the practical details I needed from a city guide book. LP does a much better job. Hope this helps.
