Customer Reviews

an accurate, very well informed cultural & historical guide

At last the guide Vienna deserves! Not only full of informations about museums opening hours and location of tourist office or railway stations, but a real literary content for a cultural capital. The visitor needs such a focus on the rich and tumultuous history of the former habsburger city to enjoy her treasures. The michelin's touch gives you more : details, genealogy of each famous curiosity and a precious introduction to the viennese "art de vivre" that allows you to feel as an insider of this astonishing city. A good way for a successful journey. But it's really a pity you can't find any hotel and restaurant in this book. Why the hell Michelin does not give this information. Do they believe it is a good way to sell more "red guides" : they should at least give a kind of short list of "hotels de charme"
