A must for Bangkok
The Lonely Planet Pocket books are a must. Used them in several cities. They have quadranted maps to sections of the city that makes sightseeing easier. The brief but accurate writeups are perfect. The need to make more of these guides to more cities.

Handy little book
Was great for making quick decisions when I had nothing planned on slower days. I'll make sure you keep in around.

Handy size with good info
Very handy size to take and plan our daily itinerary. Good map too. If you want something compact this is it.

Not very helpful
If you're a museum nut, or a temple junkie, Maybe you'd get something out of this. Not me! I read the whole thing, a few times, and didn't get much from it. It has a few helpful hints, but overall, worthless to me.

Una Guia imprescindible para moverse por Bangkok
Es una pena que no este editada en castellano, porque tiene casi toda la información necesaria para moverte por bangkok. El tamaño es perfecto para poder llevarla en el bolsillo y sacarla en cuanto la necesitas. Cuenta con casi todos los puntos de interés de la ciudad. Aunque reeditada en Junio de este año, ya tiene precios que no se corresponden. Hay que tener en cuenta que por las dimensiones de la ciudad o por su disposición los mapas que trae la guÃa están incompletos, faltan nombres de calles, pero también ocurre con el mapa que me dieron en el hotel. Me ha ayudado mucho en el viaje.

the very best of bangkok in lonely planets pocket edition
The guide is structured on bangkoks sectors with mini maps that help a lot to find the suggested places, restaurants and pubs ecc. For every sector there is a suggested route for a day trip. I followed most of them an was very happy with it. Even the included big map of bangkok is very helpfull. The pocket size makes this guide to your best friend that will never let a home as it fits in nearly everywhere.

Perfect Pocket guide
Great little book. I bought this for my first trip to BangKok & it proved very useful. I wanted a small book to keep in my pocket & this was perfect. The small, pull-out, double sided map was just what I wanted - it only covers the centre of BKK but it was fine, We only had 2 days & nights in Bangkok & were keen to cram in as much as we could. This book definitely helped us have a fantastic time & get to where we wanted to go. I used it to plan before the trip as well as to check things when we were there. A fiver well spent.

Consiglio l'acquisto e l'utilizzo
Questa serie pocket delle guide Lonely Planet è davvero utile e pratica. Ho acquistato della stessa serie guide per altre città (tokyo,berlino,ecc) e mi sono sempre trovata bene. Informazioni precise, essenziali, le cose da fare e da vedere che proprio non possono mancare più consigli su cultura locale, shopping e qualche chicca!

Bangkok in your pocket.
Small and fits the pocket as advertised, it is comprehensive and includes a Bangkok street map. Just the ticket for exploreing this fantastic city. It covers each city region and also attractions, eating and sleeping. There are sections on getting arround etc. All that you would expect from a Lonely Planet city guide infact
