good advice

Doug's book is an informal guide, almost like having a friend giving you the inside line on travel. We took his advice and stayed in the city of Frascati when visiting Rome. It is a charming city and only 30 minutes by train from the hustle and bustle of Rome. We stayed in a hotel recommended in the book and it was lovely, and the town has some delightful restaurants as well. The views of the aquaducts, mountains and vineyards on the train ride are memorable. Check this book out, and get a copy of the "Streetwise Rome" map to help you around the city.
The Only guidebook you'll need

I planned a self guided tour of Italy this past October/November. In addition to the Open Road guide, I purchased Frommer's 2001 Italy guide book. The Open road book is very well organized and written, providing an overview of Italian history, food and culture. A suggested itinerary is provided for each major city and the recomendations contained therein are invaluable. The reviews of hotels and restaurants are accurate and reflect a range of prices and styles, with an emphasis on the off the beaten path local joints. They even have suggested dishs to order and the best rooms to request.My trip was a smashing success and I used this book for the majority of my planning.
