Of that list, I would choose the Soho Grand. That way you can enjoy Soho and still walk over to the festival, which will wear thin quite quickly. You can take a bus/train/cab from anywhere in the city to the airports.

Lorenz: One of the best restaurants in Little Italy is Il Cortile on Mulberry Street. Cafe Napoli on Mulberry is our favorite for dessert, particularly the cannoli.<BR><BR>Little Italy is pretty crazy during the San Gennaro festival, but everyone has to try it at least once. Enjoy
