Summary: Best of the Bunch
Review: Doggett's Las Vegas is the best travel guide for planning a trip to this desert mecca. It is informative and easy reading. I used it to plan a family reunion in Vegas and the book was more than helpful. We even carried it as a guide throughout the trip. What I liked best about this book is not having to read pages and pages of useless information before finding what you need. It was to the point and accurate. Vegas attractions change on a daily basis and this book kept up with them. It is by far the best of the bunch in Vegas guides. I highly recommend it for anyone planning a trip to Vegas or just looking to read about this fascinating city.

Summary: Best guidebook I've ever read.
Review: Heck, it's the ONLY guidebook I've ever read from cover to cover. I go to Vegas a lot and thought I knew the place, but there are sooo many places and things about Vegas I didn't know of that this guidebook describes. And the book is hysterically funny. I just kept on reading it. It's addictive. Sometimes I pick it up and read parts of it for a second or third time. The book is full of good information and it's a total crack up. It's a really good thing to read on a plane on your way to Vegas. You land with a new appreciation for the place and in a really good mood.

Summary: Exellent book
Review: I am a fan of Lonely Planet books for last 4 years. This was my first trip to Las Vegas and with help of this book it was more enjoyable and I could plan better about visiting Grand Canyon and few other places. Maps are very helpful. Eventhough things keep changing in LV 24/7/365, the reviews about casinos, and shows are very informative. You could just read the book over and over again.

Summary: Best Book about Las Vegas IMO.
Review: I am with one of the Poster,s that The LP Travel Books is the best Travel Books written nowadays. What I like best is the Road Maps at the end of this book for those who go to Las Vegas by Motor Vehicle.

Summary: Average Travel Guide
Review: I have always preferred LP travel guides to any other guide. The been-there-done-that pithy writing style, combined with coverage of the off-the-beaten-path areas make my vacations (or business trips) memorable. However, this one stands apart from the other LP travel guides. This guide is only 232 pages, about the size of a novella. Missing are the cheap eats, some transportation information, and the typical insider's insights. Reading the information, I got the feeling that this was less of an insider's guide, and more of a condensation of the visitors guides published by the Las Vegas Chamber of Commerce. As a result, I was somewhat disappointed by this one. Still, it is on par with the other travel guides on Las Vegas, just not up to the LP standards.

Summary: What's happened to Lonely Planet?
Review: I miss the old Lonely Planet! For those familiar with the Lonely Planet format, this book will be a disappointment. Really, I found it similar to all the other guidebooks on the city - glossy and photo-filled without the off-the-beaten-path information that used to set Lonely Planet apart. Missing were items such as the how-to-get-around, how-to-eat-cheap type info that independent travelers' turn to LP for. Maybe LP has expanded their line too far too fast...

Summary: Disappointing
Review: I travel to Vegas on business frequently and was looking for more of an insider's perspective of the town. This particular Lonely Planet guide doesn't have it. If you're looking for a typical travel guide, with typical hotel, attraction and restaurant listings this book is fine. However, keep in mind it is not written with an American sensibility (Lonely Planet is an Australian-based travel publisher) and while that is not necessarily a bad thing, it can be quite noticeable at times.

Summary: a very good guide
Review: I've always preferred Lonely Planet guides when I travel. I wasn't disappointed with the new LP Las Vegas guide. It gives you pretty much all the information you need for a good vacation in Vegas. Best of all, it's a nice portable size. I was able to keep it in my purse the whole time and whip it out at a moment's notice. Despite the good coverage of information in this guide, it doesn't go as in depth as the Frommer's guide, which is probably a better guide for planning your vacation before you leave, while the LP guide is good for traveling around the city.
