The Pleno Palermo Soho would be an excellent hotel in normal circumstances. But when I suffered a severe knee injury while walking in another neighborhood on the first day of my stay, the hotel went from being a hero to being a superhero.||The hotel has beautiful, comfortable rooms with balconies. Our room on the 7th floor had a balcony set among the leaves of trees along the street. The street itself is cobblestones, which keeps traffic noise to a minimum. There are several excellent restaurants within easy walking distance, as well as several nearby bodegas for more simple food and beverage needs. The hotel has its own restaurant that provides an excellent breakfast and also serves a wonderful dinner. There is an attractive rooftop pool and sun deck, and an ample workout room.||These attributes alone make the hotel five-star. But after I had my accident, the hotel showed tremendous compassion and service to my wife and me as our planned four-night stay turned into nine nights. I spent five of those nights in a nearby hospital for surgery and recovery, and the hotel became my wife’s essential base camp and refuge. ||Even if I had never suffered my injury, I would make this hotel my first choice for any subsequent visit. But now, when we return - and we will return - I will look forward to another joyous stay in this wonderful property.
