Lonely Plant books are the BEST travel guides out there and they're the only ones I'll buy. They provide very accurate and helpful information.

Provided some great insight on places to see, neighborhoods to know about, and a variety of other general information for our trip to Bangkok. Was great to have it focused just on Bangkok, too.

Of course, a mix of this book and simply searching on Google Maps, Trip Advisor, and other sites seems to be kind of necessary these days... but this book still tends to pick out better things than we can find on Google or Trip Advisor. One restaurant we tried had great reviews on Google and Trip Advisor... but was a total stinker in the taste department when we finally got our food. Seems like travel books like this Lonely Planet one will generally have a more discerning palate reviewing restaurants, so instead of a bunch of people giving restaurant reviews who are unfamiliar with good Thai food, a book like this helps you ensure you get some fairly well-qualified suggestions.

Having the map of Catuchak market with me when I was in the middle of Chatuchak market was a life saver.

Another place in which I am working too hard to explore and too alone to revel in eating out and going out, so it's a world shrunk to hotel gyms and room service and the commute to an office, even as the world expands across oceans and continents. I didn't get out enough to rate this one.

This is the first City lonely planet I have bought. I will be able to get a better rating in a couple days as I travel around Bangkok

Really handy little guide, easy to carry and does the job. Maps much better than the main Thailand guidebook published this year too.

Helpful but a bit outdated

This was a helpful guide but a few of the restaurants they recommended were closed. Also, it is a bit disorganized and hard to navigate.
