A good guide to Seoul

I've been in Seoul for over a month and have used this guide to see most of the sights and to find my way around. I've been very satisfied with it. Seoul is an extremely difficult city to navigate, and this book helps get around. The maps could be a bit more user friendly, but in general they are helpful and the descriptions of the tourist sights have been accurate. Since I have an apartment here, I can't speak to the hotel recommendations. I was surprised to see all the negative reviews already posted, but perhaps the new edition (which is what I am using) is better than previosu editions.

Seoul City Guide

Great book! Very informative and very helpful. Definitely taking it with me to the city to use. It is small and convenient for packing and carrying.

Helpful for Newbies

Having never been to Seoul this book was very helpful for finding attractions. I did not use the book for accomodation or dinner recommendations though. A particularly convenient aspect of the book was that it told you which subway exit to leave from for a lot of the attractions. When subway stops commonly have many exits it makes it that much quicker.

Learning about Seoul

Being first time travelers to Korea, we wondered what it would be like. A friend recommended that we order this book. We found it very helpful in answering many of our questions. We also referred to the book on several occasions while in Seoul, confirming our memory of its contents, such as the custom in tipping for services and to remind us of the below ground shopping experiences available within the city. We would recommend the book to others. We also ordered the Korean Phrasebook which we did not use at all -- it was not necessary or helpful for our use.

This book is very informative!

I had lived in Seoul for a year without a guide book. When Lonely Planet's new edition of "Seoul" was released I decided to buy the book. At the time, I didn't think I needed the book because I thought I knew pretty much everything. Anyways, the book is turning out to be very helpful and interesting. I'm finding new and different things to do in a city that I thought I knew.
