- Reviewed in the United States on July 21, 2024This book is wonderful. I love all the descriptions of various areas, the photography is amazing it brings me right back to being in London. Highly recommend for yourself or a great gift idea.
- Reviewed in the United States on November 30, 2023I can’t believe this is a formerly loved book! The cover is flawless & the pages are pristine. Not only will this serve as research before we treat our family to a trip to London but it’s a lovely item to display. It’s so fun to read AND will be a great way to revisit our favorite places. I’ll have each member of our family write about their favorite memories. The book will be a gorgeous, lasting memory. Thank you & Merry Christmas 🎄

- Reviewed in the United States on September 20, 2018I’ve been following prettycitylondon on instagram for awhile now, and I saw she was having a book printed I was so excited! Her photos are gorgeous, little glimpses into the everyday beauty of London. It’s not all famous landmarks and iconic spots, it’s the pretty doors of Nottinghill or the flair of a neighborhood corner pub. All the things I love so dearly about my favorite city in print. I saw a previous review that the printing of the book is poor quality, but I disagree.. it’s matte paper, yes, and while most photography books are printed on glossy photo paper, honestly it fits the type of content this book has. I almost didn’t order because of that... but I’m so glad I did! I felt so compelled by this book I had to write a review too! Been shopping amazon for 10+ years and this will be my first review... ever. Buy it, you’ll love it if you love this city as much as I do!
- Reviewed in the United States on February 6, 2024The book is very nicely illustrated.
- Reviewed in the United States on December 15, 2019The book itself is beautiful! I follow Siobhan’s insta account and just love every single photo. When I moved into a new apartment, I needed a coffee table book and this one is simply perfect. The different parts offer a unique guide to the city. The only negative comment I have is that the back cover of my copy has a lot of scratches in it, some deeper than others. Knowing it’s a coffee table book and will be on display, I would have hoped it would have arrived in better condition.
- Reviewed in the United States on January 1, 2023This book is very colorful and has great photographs of London.
I bought this as a gift for my daughter as she was thinking about visiting London.
- Reviewed in the United States on February 20, 2024Gift for a future London traveler. Was perfect to hide some $$ inside to find out if they even looked through it. Worked out perfect. Great coffee table book.
- Reviewed in the United States on November 17, 2024The photos in the entire book are dark and kind of grainy-misty looking, not at all what I was hoping for. The text is very nice, and well organized for sure, but the poor grayish photos rather ruined it. I would not recommend it.

5.0 out of 5 stars Precioso libro con fotos sobre Londres
Las explicaciones y calidad de las fotos es increíble. UN libro para ojear de vez en cuando, aunque yo le leí entero de una tirada. Descubres barrios u sitios interesantes.

4.0 out of 5 stars Beautiful Pictures of London
London is my favourite city so I really enjoy looking through the lovely pictures. She also has broken down the neighbourhoods and their must see highlights which I will reference on my next trip there.
I wish the paper the photos are printed on was glossier so they could be viewed at their best.
