Travelers also find exhaustive coverage of the city’s sights, parks, and attractions, from traditional choices like Buckingham Palace to new favorites including Trafalgar Square’s Chinese New Year celebration. The guide offers a complete rundown on London’s lodging options, from the boutique to the decidedly curious.

Summary: Don't go there without it
Comment: This review is going to be a very short one.

The Time Out guides are almost invariably a great source of valuable information. The London guide is one of the oldest, if not the oldest of the Time Out series, and the amount of expertise and, more importantly, to my mind, off-beat suggestions, e.g., where to find a restaurant specializing in Mongolian Hot Pot, makes it invaluable.

There is only a minor problem with the guide; it is revised each year, so that Time Out London from 2005, when it was perfectly good, may have a bit too much outdated information

Customer Rating:

Summary: Consistently the best guide book
Comment: TimeOut is the most informative time and again for those who want a local's version of the city. Rough guide to London is also good. Accurate information, honest opinions, and neat tid-bits that you might not find on your own.

Customer Rating:

Summary: A little guide with alot of information
Comment: I really like the look and how compact this book is for travel. You don't need another book. It's packed with information and you almost don't need to buy the Time Out London Mazagine if you plan ahead.

Customer Rating:

Summary: Thorough, but not well organized.
Comment: Time Out guides are awesome, always. They are the best city guides. Unfortunately, this guide wasn't that well organized. Other Time Out guides are organized by area and within the section about the area there is a map, what to do, where to shop and where to eat. This guide is organized by sightseeing, entertainment and food, so you constantly have to flip back and forth through the book to find info....It is still better then any other guide, though, and if you supplement it with the weekly Time Out in London, you will have a great time

Customer Rating:

Summary: Fantastic guide to London but the print in the index is microscopic
Comment: We just got back from a fantastic trip to London. We brought several guide books with us but Time Out London proved to be the only one we needed -- except for the fact that the type size in the index is microscopic -- and therefore completely unusable.

I mention this because anyone over the age of 30 will have great difficulty using this index without a magnifying device.

It's too bad they do this to save a couple pages, because the index is crucial to getting the most out of this guide book.
