What The Press Say
As clear and readable a city guide as you’ll ever find. Small enough to pop in a jacket pocket, it contains all the info you need to get the most from a short visit. Another attraction of Rough Guides is the sleek but robust design that somehow keeps them looking pristine despite the roughest treatment. - Everything Spain Rough Guides has got it spot on with the new DIRECTIONS series and this book is no exception. It may be slim but it’s packed with in-depth info for all of Madrid’s quarters, as well as its surrounding areas. There’s also a picture-packed section for ideas on what to do there, whatever your interests, and a free e-book on CD. It’s really got angles covered. - Spanish Magazine |
