You'll never fall into the tourist traps when you travel with Frommer's. It's like having a friend show you around, taking you to the places locals like best. Our expert authors have already gone everywhere you might go-they've done the legwork for you, and they're not afraid to tell it like it is, saving you time and money. No other series offers candid reviews of so many hotels and restaurants in all price ranges. Every Frommer's Travel Guide is up-to-date, with exact prices for everything, dozens of color maps, and exciting coverage of sports, shopping, and nightlife. You'd be lost without us! Completely updated every year (unlike most of the competition), Frommer's Las Vegas features lavish full-color photos of the spectacle that awaits you. This is simply the most frank, funny, outrageous guide you can buy-and it's much more up-to-date and indepth than its competition. Our author is completely on top of the latest developments in this fast-changing destination, and she'll make sure that you never miss a minute of the fun. She'll give you an irreverent take on all the casino hotels, with all their attractions. She's also scouted out the very best restaurant choices in this up-and-coming dining scene, and honestly reviews all the casinos, shows, clubs, shopping arcades, and golf courses in town. Frommer's Las Vegas also includes a color fold-out map and an 8-page full-color photo insert! Keine Bibliotheksbeschreibungen gefunden. |

I usually consult several guides to a destination but have developed an overall preference for Frommer’s. More than just listings, their pages develop a narrative about the big picture, in a voice that’s direct and conversational vs. the more reserved, professional tone of Fodor’s. Regarding Las Vegas, that narrative is unapologetic, decadent escape, and the listings showcase the extravagance (and in most cases, the success) on all fronts -- food, lodging, casinos, shopping, clubs, shows and the sex and wedding industries. For visitors wanting to come up for air, there are also listings of cultural attractions and area side trips.
Each section begins with a “best of” the category and then detailed descriptions that are well organized (by location, then price) and nicely laid out on silky (almost glossy) pages. Hundreds of maps and color photos enhance the text, and dozens of sidebars pull out special info or slice large amounts of info in helpful ways, e.g. summary or comparison charts.
It's a great guide to navigating Las Vegas’s return to its true self, improved.
