Art Deco Traveller: A Guide to the UK

Attractive book for lovers of Art Deco buildings old and new
An attractive, informative and enjoyable book which conveys the author's enthusiasm well. I gave 4 stars rather than 5 as the book could have been more thoroughly checked. For example, Worthing is given as being in East Sussex on one page and (correctly) in West Sussex on another page. The book could inspire readers to visit unfamiliar Art Deco buildings (I hope it does) but it may be worth checking details elsewhere first.

Super Quirky Book
I stumbled across this book and was so pleased that I did! My partner Sarah and I love visiting Art Deco buildings, and we were chuffed to find this book packed with hotels and other interesting places to visit. Highly recommend buying this little treasure.

Useful but lightweight
Very useful for Art Deco fans planning a trip to visiting an area for the first time. Good pictures. Enjoyable book to skim through. However, the write ups are pretty basic and many of the lesser examples would not merit going out of your way. Rather sad that there are so few remaining nearly-original examples outside the small number of well known Art Deco gems.

Fab book
Fab little book if you’re looking for Art Deco hotels - didn’t know there were still so many in the U.K. luv the detail and pics. Got the European & USA books.

A must for deco enthusiasts.
This book is 251 pages long plus index and contains hundreds of colour photographs. It breaks Britain into different regions including London and each section details accommodation, restaurants, bars, cafes, theatres, cinemas ,lidos and other places of interest. Each place has a paragraph of explaination and most have a photo. A great book. I paid £7.99 for it but would say it's worth up to £10.00.
