This is a nice guide that fits easily in a reasonably sized pocket. It comes with a separate map of central Stockholm, which is way better than any of the tourist maps we were handed out there. There are also many more smaller, color, maps in the book itself, indicating locations of atractions, restaraunts, etc. in various areas of city. The location of at least one of the restaraunts on one of the little maps was slightly inaccurate (shifted by a couples of tiny blocks), but the address was correct. The books includes suggestions for self-guided tours of the city, depending on the length of the stay, as well as separate lists of museums, restaraunts, and shopping venues. We found all of the information that we checked accurate, except it turned that the Observatory Museum offers tours in English only for groups with appointment; the view of the city from that hill is not great either. One drawback is that the guide includes no information on grocery stores or pharmacies. The hotel section of the guide is essentially useless: hotel rates and reviews can be easily found online.
