Frommer's Irreverent Guide: San Francisco

For readers who are tired of the promotional fluff and brochure-speak that characterizes most travel guides, heres a fresh voice. The Irreverent Guides offer an insiders look at each destination, and take a fun, honest look at everything they review. Its not every day you open up a guidebook to find categories like:c Wont bore the kidsc Eurotrashiest hotelsc Was that RuPaul in the elevator?c Hotels for people who hate conventioneersc Luscious love nests and lavender lodgingsc Restaurants that dont live up to the hypec Swingin supper clubs with attitudec Painting the town with three babes and a busThe Irreverents give you the lowdown, the inside story. They have nothing to sell but the truth, which includes a balance of good and bad. They praise, they trash, they weigh, and leave the final decision up to the reader. Our writers take a special pleasure in leading you where other guides fear to tread.Look for a brand-new cover design this season!
