In my opinion, Lonely Planet, hands down. But, I think it depends on what
kind of travelling you like to do. If you like to avoid chain hotels and
restaurants, and, instead, prefer to enjoy locally owned places, LP is the
best guide book. LP tends to target those who want to venture off the
beaten path a bit.

If, on the other hand, you prefer larger chain hotels and the like, Frommers
or Fodors might be better.
