(More customer reviews)My husband and I used this book to choose hotels for our honeymoon in Italy, and we adored every one of our selections. Not only are the descriptions thorough and accurate, the guide thoughtfully tells you how to get to each hotel and what cities and/or major attractions are nearby. In Florence, we were five minutes' walk from the Duomo; in Siena, we stayed on the top floor of a 15-century casa torre and fed sparrows from our window. In Rome, we had breakfast on the roof, overlooking the city, and luxiurated in a bath big enough for two at night. If you want hotels with history, that truly have "charm and character," look no further than this fabulous book.
The contents run the gamut from bargain basement accomodations to hotels where you can expect to meet prime ministers and movie stars. There were a number of typos in my edition (it appeared to have been hurriedly translated) and as a translated work, you will find some places where no one speaks English. Most do, however, especially in the big cities and some of the hotels are run by native English speakers from England and elsewhere.
A must buy for travelers, especially honeymoon and other couples!!
