Product Information

'What's cool about Phaidon Press' Wallpaper City Guides is that they're small enough to fit in a purse or backpack, and colorful enough to find amidst all the other stuff crammed in there. What's even cooler is that they cut through all the regular travel-brochurese and focus on the edgiest nightclubs, restaurants, hotels, gyms, spas and stores.' - Sky-Delta Airlines, April 2007 'Ultra-stylish.' Time Magazine, November 2006 'Attractive and well-researched.' - USA Today, October 2006 'No ordinary range of city guides - for the business traveller who wants to break free from their hotel - For anyone who relishes an alternative view of life' - Royal Wings (Royal Jordanian Airlines in-flight magazine) September 2006 'Don't just paint the town, Wallpaper it.' - Cara (Aer Lingus in-flight magazine), September 2006 'While the pocket-sized guides will look very slick lined up on a shelf, they're made for travelling.' - Easyjet (in-flight magazine), October 2006 'Concise, informative manuals from people who've actually been there. They're refreshingly devoid of details on the nearest backpacker's hostel, too. And they look very pretty.' - Esquire, December 2007 'Sophisticated but simple.' The New York Times, October 2006 'Sparkling images and convenient format' - Frame (Netherlands), November 2006 'Small, stylish and beautifully illustrated, the Wallpaper* City Guides make everything else look old hat. ... The photographs and maps are superb.' - The Sydney Magazine, October 2006 'For a different way to see a city, they're damn near indispensable.' Gay Times, April 2007
