Algonquin Hotel, Writer's Rate, New York City

Authors such as Dorothy Parker, E.B. White, James Thurber, John Updike, and William Faulkner brought the Algonquin to literary fame. Since then the well respected "Gonk" has had a soft spot for writers.

Literary hopefuls of today can request a special "Writer's Rate."

"The writer's rate for a one-night stay is offered to any writer with a pen and a dream. To "seal the deal," writers present proof of their writing prowess with a copy of their work, whether in progress or published."

What's my favorite thing about the Algonquin? The New Yorker cartoon wallpaper in the stairways.
