"Angelika Taschen reveals a decidedly grown-up version of Paris with this utterly gorgeous selection of some of the most lavish places to eat, stay and play in the city. Opening any TASCHEN title is like stepping into a fantasy world, and this book is illustrated with numerous glossy photographs... Pure escapism."— Sunday Telegraph, London, United Kingdom
"(Angelika Taschen's) collection of travel books are cute and extremely helpful! She provides information and incredible pictures of her favorite places to eat, shop, sleep, and visit in these 4 destinations. There's even a pocket-sized street map with landmarks in each book. The beautiful photography and adorable artwork makes for a visually appealing way to learn about each city, and they make great coffee table books. Angelika has impeccable taste and experience to back up her choices of locations to visit."— SimplyHealthyBlog.com, United States
"Renowned arts and design publisher TASCHEN has released two books so beautifully striking they deserve a place on all discerning travellers' coffee tables. TASCHEN's New York and TASCHEN's Paris traverse every corner and back alley of the Big Apple and the Big Romantic City, respectively, to profile some of the most well-known and not-yet-widely-discovered spots to eat, sleep and shop. Glorious full-page photographs by Paul Ober accompany insightful reviews by Daisann McLane in the New York guide, while images by Vincent Knapp and observations by Angelika Taschen herself pepper the Paris tome. Helpful reference points on design, trading hours, prices and x-factor on each location also provide a quick and concise directory through these dense books. A snip at RRP $99 each although you might need an extra piece of luggage if you intend bringing them overseas with you."— Cream Magazine, Sydney, Australia
"Upon researching our latest excursion, we stumbled upon the most beautiful pictorial guide of Paris ever created, TASCHEN'S Paris. This comprehensive book is divided into three essential sections: hotels, restaurants, and shopping, and is an insider's guide to the three major activities anyone will be doing when visiting the romantic city."— Boho Magazine, Montclair, United States
"City guide meets coffee-table book meets reference volume in this hefty offering from TASCHEN, complete with cut-out tabs that make it easy to turn directly to the chapter you wish to consult. This tri-lingual book brings together all of the recommendations of its well-known writer/editor-the places she says best "capture (Paris's) character and atmosphere." Whether traditional, trendy or simply timeless, TASCHEN's hundred or so venues are gorgeously photographed and well worth a trip."— France Magazine, Washington D.C., United States
"Seriously, could Angelika Taschen be any more on it? New New York Interiors is my latest insanely cheap Amazon buy.... and I absolutely loooove it. Such an beautiful collection of eclectic NY homes. I am also seriously coveting her magnificent 'Taschen's New York' and 'Taschen's Paris' and 'Taschen's London' books, each with fantabulously illustrated covers. Such brilliance."— TheDesignFiles.net, Melbourne, Australia
"So lässt sich eine Stadt natürlich auch verkürzen: die wichtigsten Adressen für Schlafen, Essen und Einkaufen ... Zum Schmöckern prächtig: eindrucksvoll fotografiert, interessant ausgewählt. Pariserisch war das Motto."— Berenberg Bank Magazin, Hamburg, Germany
"Eine verführerische Reise an die edelsten Adressen der Seine-Metropole, auf der man ohne viel Geld auszugeben sich dennoch vollends dem Genuss hingeben kann ... Das erklärte Ziel von Angelika Taschen, Orte abzubilden, die man ansonsten nie zu Gesicht bekommen würde, hat sie erreicht. Die Vielzahl der prächtigen Fotos der Innenarchitektur, von Objekten oder Außenansichten lassen das Herz höher schlagen!"— rezensionen.ch, Winterthur, Switzerland
"Das erklärte Ziel von Angelika Taschen, Orte abzubilden, die man ansonsten nie zu Gesicht bekommen würde, ist gelungen. Die Vielzahl der prächtigen Fotos der Innenarchitektur, von Objekten oder Außenansichten lassen das Herz höher schlagen."— Buchkritik.at, Breitenfurt, Germany
"Opulenter Bildband für alle, die zu Hause schon mal Paris-Luft schnuppern wollen; oder davon träumen, wie es wäre, wenn man viel Geld auszugeben hätte: Das Buch zeigt exklusive Hotels, Restaurants, Cafés und Bars."— Brigitte, Hamburg, Germany
