Summary: Good book, but a little bit is missing.
Comment: When my friend and I travelled Europe last April we used this book and the Let's Go book. Lonely Planet was helpful, but we mostly relied on the Let's Go as it had more in-depth information and usually more listing for hostels and restaurants. This books isn't bad and one can easily rely on it to go through Europe, but I'd recommend the Let's Go. However, Lonely Planet does have better maps, although it has left has not included subway maps, which would be helpful.

Summary: The only book I'm taking this summer
Comment: After spending countless hours at Barns & Noble and reading through almost every Europe guide book, this is one of the very few that I purchased, and the only one I will be taking with me this summer. Lonely Planet gives well organized, detailed information on every country including background info, how to get around once you get there, dinning, lodging, etc. A great book.

Summary: Good overview of Europe
Comment: I spent three months in Europe (England, France, Italy, Germany, Austria, Switzerland, and Belgium) last summer, and used this book as my primary guide.
It is good for finding the basics (hostels, train and bus stations, etc) but not much else, and with so much area to cover this should hardly be surprising.
As about 2/3 of my time was spent in Italy, I do wish I'd purchased an Italy specific guide... luckily I had access to various other books that were more in depth.
The maps and contact information were accurate. I don't think I ever used this guide for restaurant recommendations, though. It's much easier and more fun to go menu-shopping or ask locals. Hostel operators tend to know what's up too.
