The Edison Hotel

Eating at the Triumph Hotels

At the Triumph hotels in New York, as well as being centrally located in the hubbub of the city, for those looking for quiet kickback time there are a variety of eateries to choose from.

Take a look at the Hotel Edison for example.  The Bond 45 New York Italian Kitchen & Bar is a dream. The restaurant is the original former historic Bond clothing Store (1948-77) which re-opened in Shimmie Horn’s Hotel Edison.  Over the years there, it earned a reputation for its delicious “rotating selection of market vegetables,” but for those carnivores among us, don’t worry, the veal chops are to die for.  And then of course there’s the delicious pizza and homemade pasta too.

Moving over to Bryant Park, we have the Triomphe Restaurant, conveniently located in another one of Shimmie Horn’s hotels, the Iroquois.  It’s comfortable and relaxed and boasts an “understated elegance” in its design relaxing diners as soon as they enter.  You can order any meal from there and choose from a wonderful French-based selection including the Epicurean Tasting Menu.

There are more of course, offered at the Triumph hotels, but excuse us for just giving you a “taste” of what is on offer.

Unique Boutique- The Iroquois Hotel

It would be hard to imagine a more conveniently located hotel than Shimmie Horn’s Iroquois. With Times Square two blocks to the west, Rockefeller Center four blocks north, Grand Central Station two blocks to the east, the United Nations ten minutes further, and Bryant Park two short blocks to the South, the Iroquois on 44th Street between Fifth and Sixth Avenue puts all of Manhattan at your service.

Aside from the prime location of the Iroquois the hotel itself is a wonderful counterpoint to the frantic whirlwind of activity Manhattan can bombard a visitor with. The Iroquois is a boutique hotel with a difference: exceptional personal service and the highest level of amenities uniquely position the Iroquois as a hotel which caters to each individual guest in an intimate and warm manner.

Whether you are in New York for business or pleasure, and especially a bit of both, Shimmie Horn’s Iroquois Hotel will make it easier for you to enjoy the city that never sleeps.
