sohograndThe Peter Greenberg Worldwide Radio Show broadcasts this week from the Soho Grand Hotel in New York, NY. The hotel opened back in 1996, but it quickly earned a well deserved reputation as a cutting edge boutique luxury property in a cutting edge, boutique neighborhood. We’ll talk about Carnival’s announcement of getting U.S. approval to sail from Florida to Havana. Joining us is NBC news correspondent Kerry Sanders to chat about the continuing economic crisis in Greece and the effects on travel and tourism, The Wall Street Journal‘s Scott McCartney talks about the growing controversy of some hotels not honoring supposedly confirmed reservations made through online travel agencies like Expedia.

Joshua David Stein, the food critic for the New York Observer, takes us for a great gastronomic tour of his top restaurant picks all within seven minutes of the Soho Grand. And, last but not least, mixologist Natasha David talks about the explosion in American crafted whisky, and the Soho Grand’s unique all bourbon bar, featuring 50 brands from around the U.S. and from expected locations — like Kentucky, to some real surprises, like…Brooklyn. All this and more when the Peter Greenberg Worldwide Radio Show broadcasts from the Soho Grand Hotel.
