The destination destination.
June.
The Iroquois Hotel.
<<< The Iroquois were a collection of Indian
tribes. The Iroquois Hotel, on the other hand is
a hotel just a few blocks away from Time
Square.
Cheaper than many of the hotels in the area. A
room at The Iroquois will cost you a few
hundred dollars less than the Westin down the
street. Compared to the Westin, the rooms are
much smaller, though it has middle of the road
amenities like a phone in the bathroom, an Ipod
speaker, and chocolates on the pillows. It is,
however, nearly comical that the closet sized
rooms also come with doorbells.

Room size shouldn't come into play for most travelers. Anybody who is willing to spend Time Square
money isn't likely to stay couped up for long and it takes a small room to help one realize how utterly
useless most hotel desks are. Anyway, there's a flat screen TV.
Downstairs, the lobby is also small, but not without charm. There's a cute library with the day's
newspapers.
At the bar, Triomphe, it'll cost you $9 for the cheapest beer. The (female) bartender is attractive and
chatty and that almost makes it worth it. Well, no it doesn't, but it's pleasant nonetheless.
