Great Travel Book!5
I used the 2006 edition of the book for a study abroad trip in college. It got so much use (and was so helpful) that I knew I wanted to get a new copy/edition before my next trip. The book is a little bigger than what you would want to carry around while you're there, but for pre-planning purposes, the information is very thorough! The maps that come with the book are convenient to take with you and very helpful too! *If you're going to Munich, make sure you tear out the map of the rail system they provide at the beginning of the chapter - you'll feel like a local in no time!

Frommer's Germany 20094
Much of the information is very detailed and helpful; the transportation information in particular appears to be extremely specific and useful. However, I looked up hotel suggestions from the book online and found the labels such as "inexpensive" to be wildly inaccurate.

Fair book3
I bought this book for my short trip to Germany. The information is well updated. But I think the author was trying to put too much information in the book, hence miss the details. I was expecting to have better explanation and more pictures on the important landmarks.
