More Info
This book was extremely helpful to my husband and I when we visited Italy in '99 and again in '00. (We also have used her guide to Paris). If you read enough of the profiles of the hotels, you get a better understanding of the author's tastes, preferences, and values, and you can better compare her comments to your own interests. With her as our guide, we have identified several hotels that seem interesting or inviting, and then looked for websites to give us a more complete portrait. Not quite a walk-through prior to check-in, but a pretty good substitute. Should also note that the author of the recently published "Piazzas and Pizzas" seems to be a HUGE fan of Sandra Gustafson's choices. If you can afford the Cipriani or the Hassler, this is NOT the book for you. But for the rest of us, it is a terrific guide.

Very nice accomodations in great locations for not too many lira. That's what I got out of this book. Visited all three cities and with the help of this guide, came home with money left over.
