Both are useful and have special functions for our sites, mostly when used properly.

Well, answers had been given, so I'll just support them. Xml sitemaps are recommended by Google.

Both Xml and html sitemaps are good but still I think Google gives a bit more preference to Xml sitemaps.

Google actually likes both and you can watch a clip about it at the Google Webmaster Central Channel on Youtube.

xml sitemap is for search engine purpose, and html sitemap is for user purpose.
