Lonely Planet has City and Out to Eat Guides. They are all about the experience so they focus on doing, being, getting there, and this means they have the best detailed information, including both inexpensive and really spectacular restaurants and hotels, out-of-the-way places, weird things to see and do, the list is endless.
The LP has much to recommend it. Here are the highlights:
-excellent maps with accurate scale and bilingual markers
-good breadth without sacrificing too much depth
-great for people who want to leave the tour groups and package tours behind (it's much cheaper to go solo!)
-a good selection of restaurants and hotels in different price ranges
-good descriptions of main attractions and how to get to them
-a pretty good language section with some of the survival words and phrases you will need

Having never been to Seoul this book was very helpful for finding attractions. I did not use the book for accommodation or dinner recommendations though. A particularly convenient aspect of the book was that it told you which subway exit to leave from for a lot of the attractions. When subway stops commonly have many exits it makes it that much quicker. |

I had lived in Seoul for a year without a guide book. When Lonely Planet's new edition of "Seoul" was released I decided to buy the book. At the time, I didn't think I needed the book because I thought I knew pretty much everything. Anyways, the book is turning out to be very helpful and interesting. I'm finding new and different things to do in a city that I thought I knew. |

I planned a 7 day trip to Seoul, Pusan, and Tokyo with this book. I have found very details about places in especially Seoul. I find this book as a valuable when I travel. Recommended backpack, even businessman. |

Being first time travelers to Korea, we wondered what it would be like. A friend recommended that we order this book. We found it very helpful in answering many of our questions. We also referred to the book on several occasions while in Seoul, confirming our memory of its contents, such as the custom in tipping for services and to remind us of the below ground shopping experiences available within the city. We would recommend the book to others. We also ordered the Korean Phrasebook which we did not use at all - it was not necessary or helpful for our use.
