Summary: the joy of paris
Comment: i recently returned from my first trip to paris. in preparation, i reviewed multiple guidebooks and took with me two. the four i considered most promising were let's go paris, rough guide paris, frommers paris from $90 and fodors paris. it was frustrating that i could not find a comparative review of guides which is why i share this info with you.
of these, after the trip, i must say that let's go paris was the most helpful with copious useful maps and tips, in addition to accurate and abundant recommendations on housing, dining and entertainment. frommers was the second most useful in planning and understanding the city.
although i thought that the rough guide would be beneficial, the maps were limited in detail and annotation. also, dining etc was not listed by arrondissements which made searching very difficult.
fodors was nice, but not particularly useful for the moderate income traveler compared to the others. frommers paris i briefly reviewed but found much less useful than this frommers guide.

Summary: Better Than the Other Guides
Comment: This is the guide you want. I ordered this along with Frommer's Paris guide, and found this to be so much better. Let's Go Paris has tons more information than its competition, and yet it is very fun to read. You will feel like you are being led through Paris by a very cool local.
Also, the featured restaurants and hotels are clearly labeled with price categories (very useful for the budget-minded). Best of all, each section of Paris is mapped at the end of the book, showing the locations of every reviewed restaurant, hotel, monument and museum.
Even though some other guides come with tear-out folding maps, they are mostly worthless -- fall apart easily, low on detail and area. If you really want a large fold-out map, buy this along with an Insight Fleximap of Paris and you'll be set.
This guide has a charm and quirkiness that I have not found elsewhere. Buy it a month or two ahead of time, sit at a cafe and read it cover to cover. You will not regret it.

Summary: Let's Go Paris - A REAL WINNER!!
Comment: I spent two months living in Paris and this book became my personal bible! It took me to the hippest night spots, clued me in to oodles of bargains, and helped me with up-to-date practical information such as prices and hours of operation. The writing is HILARIOUS and offers twentysomethings a cool alternative to other guides. I won't waste another cent on Lonley Planet ever again. . .
