The BEST book I've ever used for finding hotels in Italy

I loved using the 1st edition of Hello Italy but this newest edition is wonderful. It contains detailed descriptions for over 400 charming and affordable hotels in more than 20 of the most popular cities in Italy. The book also contains tips on how to make hotel reservations, how to get to the hotels, useful websites, list of packing unusual items, which hotels have handicapped access rooms, foreign phrases, how to get hotel discounts, what to do before leaving the United States, contact information for individual tourist offices, list of laundromats in the major cities, etc. Wow! I've been looking for a book like this for years and I've travelled to Italy more than 10 times.

A must-buy for the budget traveler to Italy.

Yes, Toto, this may not be Kansas, but you still can find a good room for under $100 ... with bath. In fact you'll find nearly 70 listings for Rome, personally checked out by the author. And if you're visiting elsewhere in Italy there are extensive listings for 25 other cities and areas. You won't find details on sights here so you'll need another, regular, guidebook like Cadogan. But you can dependably use this as the book to find recommendable, decent, clean, budget accommodations. Save your money for more of the luscious Italian food. And while not a regular guidebook, Margo has included worthwhile travel tips, many you'll rarely find elsewhere, lessons learned from her extensive travels.
