 Rating:  - Great guide to Hungary.This is the kind of book that gives LP the great reputation that it deserves. The guide was generally helpful for both Budapest and Eger, and we used it religiously for our one-week visit to the country.

Rating: - Great Resource on HungaryI lived in Hungary for a while, and this is a great resource for traveling around the country. The author captures the Hungarian spirit and quirkiness quite well, and the reviews of the restaurants, hotels, and attractions are usually accurate. I do caution people that the information isn't as accurate if you're traveling to any of the minor cities.
