Frommer's Valencia Day by DayTimothy BirchI am a bit of a Rick Steves guidebook follower so imagine my surprise when I discovered that he didn't mention Valencia in his Spain guidebook. Frommers Valencia day by day was published this month and it was a fantastic guide for our recent 2 week stay in Valencia. I liked his style and recommendations. The restaurants we chose from this book we found easily and the food was good. The maps and info were current and the included map was a great bonus. I enjoyed the neighborhood walks and the activities labeled kids. The language help section at the back, even some wine selections are all great.
Two things to be noted however which prevented me giving it 5 stars. The soccer stadium that he talked about being wonderful and crowded on Saturdays is in fact not finished. His description of it being 'a big shiny stress ball' is what it may one day look like but at the moment it is a massive cement undertaking. I am guessing the photo in the book is the artists impression. Also the stars by the hotels he listed were very confusing. I couldn't work out what they meant as my hotel was listed in the book as a 3* where it is in fact a 5*. I found it eventually listed way in the front of the book but they don't put the star symbol there, just use the word 'star' in the text which made it hard to find. Anyway just so you know, the stars throughout the text are his personal recommendations, not the hotels rating. In summary, a great book. I liked it so much that I wished I had the Madrid version when I hit Madrid rather than the Rick Steves guide!
