Summary: lonely planet, Vancouver
Review: A very good book and a big help on our recient trip, but I do want to update one section in particular. We went up the tram to Grouse Mountain and were lucky to have a clear winter night and the view was spectacular, the snow, lit for skiers was a fairyland, the city below, a carpet of sparkling light, however, I would like to state that the restaurant was far better than you suggest. It has been renovated and has a new chef and management. It was terrific in every way, service, decor and food. While somewhat up-scale, it is well worth the cost. We told them we would let you know of the changes.

Summary: practical guide to Vancouver
Review: I bought 3 Vancouver travel books before vacationing in Vancouver. By far, this was the most practical. It was really helpful because it lists public transportation lines to get to recommended sites.

Summary: in regards to...
Review: I read the review for the Lonely Planet's Vancouver edition and I would like to clarify one thing. Chinatown is great during the day! There is a point around the main intersection of Chinatown that is unsafe at night but as long as you mind your business you will be just fine.

Summary: Awesome City, Awesome Book
Review: I went with my parents to Vancouver in August and we took along about five different guide books to the city. I checked out some of them but the one that I thought was by far the coolest was the Lonely Planet guide. The descriptions of places were right on target and you could tell that the writers really knew the city and how to get around it. I mean it was like they were walking along with us describing things and telling us where we should go. My parents came around to thinking that this was a pretty cool book too and by the end of our holiday it was the only one we took out with us.

Summary: Unorganized
Review: The book contains a lot of information for sure. The thing is for a first time visitor it does not really provide a big help. Which things are a must to see? The book does not say. Instead the reader is forced to read each every section of the book because the book is divided into sections, each covering a part of the city.All in all it is a bit disappointing.

Summary: A little out of date
Review: The book is organized and is easy to follow. E mail addresses are included when possible. Could update the Chinatown area as it not a safe place for tourists, and this was not mentioned in the book.

Summary: Superb book identifying the best the city has to offer
Review: This is an excellent, well-written book which identifies the best that the city of Vancouver has to offer. It is clearly written with current references. The author has a smooth, exuberant style which makes the book a "keeper". Highly recommended for both tourists and natives alike.

Summary: A little out of date
Review: Vancouver is a beautiful city to visit and the people are very nice. I was disappointed that this book was so outdated even the train fare is no longer $1.50. With so many tourist going to Vancouver LP might consider updating this guide more often.
And this book list "Hasting and Main st." as being a shady area, they should have been more informative and wrote "traveler should not walk pass these streets."
Description for places where too brief, lacked detail.
