Author Description

Are you tired of looking at glossy brochures in search of the best place to stay? Give yourself a break! Pick up a Charming Small Hotel Guide and let it do the legwork for you. Each book in this highly-respected series offers a selection of the finest -- but not necessarily the most expensive -- lodgings, most shown in high-quality color photos. These are the special places you dream of, but seldom find, including small B&Bs, grand chateaux, historic old homes and rustic lodges. Over 250 are profiled in each pocket-size book, with candid evaluations on everything from service and level of privacy to amenities. Colorful descriptions allow you to get a real feel for each place. Practical information (telephone number, address, price scale, pet policies and seasonal opening times) are given in an easy-to-read format, so you can see at a glance if your needs will be met.
