Paris (Lonely Planet City Guide) Book

Spent hours browsing for a Paris guide and can't decide? Lonely Planet guides have proven to be indispensable aids for shoestring travelers and this is no exception. Compared to other big-name titles, Paris, A Lonely Planet City Guide offers fewer listings for hotels and restaurants, as well as less chitchat, but includes critical information collected by experienced travelers as well as more offbeat tidbits, such as how to rent a houseboat on the Seine. The authors had this to say about a certain hotel in the 5th arrondisement: "This is exactly what a cockroach-infested dilapidated Latin Quarter dive for impoverished students should be like. Very basic singles start at 75FF, but they're usually occupied ... Reservations not accepted." What more do you need to know? Replete with maps, color photos, and space for notes, this book is perfect for the budget traveler in search of a concise, knowledgable guide to the City of Light. --Jhana Bach END Read More
