Good But There are Better By J. E. Robinson I have been to Switzerland a good deal of times. Recently I sat down with my daughter who has worked at a hotel at Interlaken in Switzerland for the duration of her years in Business Administration at McGill – up to last summer – and we went over the Switzerland guides to see how they ranked, and what was presently the best guide in our modest opinions. We are not experts but have sure requirements and preferences. It helps if one may get a feel for the area in advance of a trip, and in general that is helped by good maps and color photos. So those guides do better in our review. We like to make reservations by internet and telephone and just use the Guide as a “guide”.
Generally it costs more to publish a book with color photos so when all else is reasonably equal, one feels that they get better value with a guide with photos. Also we wanted to see if the ambiance at sure hotels and resorts was accurately portrayed in the text based on our knowledge. So those distinct elements of the guides determine our ranking. Incidentally all the books are excellent. When we did our review the new DK Eyewitness guide was not yet available, but in any case it will be short, underneath 400 pages.
For the Swiss guides we disunited the guides into three groups, 5, 4, and 3 stars.
5 Stars (this group has nice color photos plus maps and text).
A. Green Guide to Switzerland published February 2001 by Michelin, 395 pages, $14., rated 24,380 on Amazon.com, 0.64″ x 9.4″ x 4.7″, lots of photos, maps, text, exact portrayal of areas. Gives a nice idea of what you will find. Goes right down to little villages in detail even altho it is just 395 pages. First choice.
B. Lonely Planet Switzerland published July 2003, 335 pages, $ 14., ranked 29,913 on Amazon.com, .69″ x 6.42″ x 6.5″. Solid effort, a large total of good photos and descriptions.
4 Stars (this group principally text and maps).
C. Rough Guide to Switzerland published June 2003, 704 pages, $13.27, ranked 30,209 on Amazon.com, 1.08″ x 7.8″ x 6.38″. Solid crusade lots of things to see and do and best “text and maps only” books.
D. Frommer’s Switzerland published February 2003, 512 pages, $15.39, rated 47,638 on Amazon.com, 1.1″ x 8.5″ x 5.08″. Similar to Rough Guide but shorter.
E. Fodor’s Guide to Switzerland 42 edition, published December 2002, 448 pages, $14.7, rated most eminent in group on Amazon.com at 3,172, 1.2″ x 8.98″ x 5.01″. The smallest in the group, do not know why it is so popular?.
3 Stars
F. Michelin Red Guide published in 2004, 563 pages but in four languages: Italian, French, German and English so English sections are just a fraction of the book.

Worth taking with me By A I not long back purchased this book from a local bookstore and found it very informative. It had a balanced view of history and was agreeably diverting reading. I am planning on taking the book with me as I travel Switzerland. It seems to have a good selection of hotel and restaurant offerings and I can’t wait to get there. I find that the Frommers books as well as the on-line web site at frommers.com are very valuable to the budget minded traveler. I remunerated more for the book than Amazon is retail it for so it is a good value from Amazon.

Good as reference, not for much else By Julius Kusuma I purchased a copy of this book to support with my summer exploration internship in Switzerland in 2001, and found it to be less utile than the Rough Guides.
The Fromer book is written as a somewhat terse reference book, listing a few restaurants, hotels of respective price ranges, and not much else for the dissimilar cities. Sure, there are listings of attractions for the dissimilar cities, but the way they are staged is not very helpful to plan trips. On the other hand, the Rough Guides have suggestions on things to do for the dissimilar places.
So all in all, it depends on your style of planning but I feel that this book is more suitable to business travelers.
