It is wonderful property stay, right into the core of Matera's \"Sassi\", the classical and traditional drwelling quarter. It is super conveniently located in the heart of attractions. The room even has a two underground water containing structures, one in the living area and one in the bathroom. The design of the room perfectly incorporated the tradition in the area while providing all the modern convenience with style. Highly recommend.

The resort was absolutely stunning. The view from it amazing. The two observations that we have are: the staff just did not have enough capacity to service all the rooms. We had a problem in the bathroom, asked for help, went out and two hours later it still was not addressed. The second was the breakfast. The breakfast was not on par with such a luxurious resort. They need to do more. More good varsity and served until 10:30, not running out of items at 9:30. Other than these two observations, we absolutely recommend the resort!

Loved everything about this magical little hotel in the caves of matera. My only complaint is that the locals of matera seem to hate tourists, very rude. One guy even told us all tourists are not welcome. Very sad bc it seems tourism would be one of the main drivers of the economy there. I read the book by Carlo Levi and it seems there was pure poverty until a few decades ago. Very sad but beautiful town.

This hotel was truly spectacular. What struck me most was how well the design showcases Matera's distinctive architecture without sacrificing comfort or luxury. The rooms are genuinely comfortable and beautiful inside — modern, while still respecting the character of the city's stonework, and never losing that cozy feel. Our room in particular opened directly onto the street, almost like a little house of its own. It was one of our favorite stays ever.

There's one important thing to flag. The hotel's listing advertises free on-site parking, which was actually one of the reasons we chose it. A few days before arrival, we got an email letting us know that the hotel is in a restricted vehicle access zone, and that parking is actually a 10 minute walk away. When I wrote back pointing out that this wasn't what was advertised, I was just told that the hotel is in a restricted zone as mosts hotels in Matera, which I of course completly understand, but doesn't change the fact that the listing isn't accurate.

So: factor this into your budget — the shuttle to the parking lot costs €15 per trip. And if you're thinking of just walking instead, it's just 10 minutes but it's uphill with a lot of steps, so it's very hard with luggage — fine if you only have a backpack or hand luggage.

None of this would stop me from booking again or recommending it — the hotel itself is excellent and one of my favorite stays of the trip. Just go in with the right expectations about parking.

We stayed two nights at Pianelle Resort. The location was ideal for exploring the old town and taking advantage of the many nearby restaurants. The bedroom and bathroom were both spacious. They were a combination of modern / high spec and historical building. The only slight irritation / surprise was, although we didn’t need any, there would have been a charge for extra towels. This is unnecessary and sends the wrong message. However, this would not stop us from highly recommending it.

L’hôtel est magnifiquement situé. Prendre note que si vous arrivez en voiture, vous devrez la stationner à environ 20 minutes de marche. L’hôtel est très propre. Cependant, la salle de bain est derrière un mur de vitre, donc douche et toilette complément ouvertes sur la chambre. Ce qui était très malaisant puisque je voyageais avec ma fille.

As everyone has said previously on this site, the staff really make this hotel. They are very helpful and friendly; nothing is too much bother for them. They helped to find us when we got lost in the town on arrival, they arranged a taxi to come and get us off the hill opposite (thankfully there is a car park at the top as there was no way I was making it back on foot!). Just lovely people. The room was also fab. It had everything. The bathroom mirror was heated, which was welcome in the October cold and rain. Breakfast was perfectly adequate. Location was great too.

The Pianelle Resort in heart of Sassi Caveoso was so convenient to so many sites and restaurants nearby. The view as well immediately at the doorstep was breathtaking. The room was spacious and luxurious with exposed stone walls and ceilings which provided an immersive experience if staying in the caves of Matera. The breakfast options too were delicious and highlighted the local produce and cuisine. We had an amazing 2 nights and would definitely return.

Beautiful hotel, friendly helpful staff. Delicious strong cocktails on the roof top terrace at sunset! The breakfast was tasty but could do with more frequent replenishing the buffet options. Definitely worth taking up the parking and transfer option given the steep hills and cobbled streets that are very atmospheric but take a bit of puff to navigate!

Not really a resort - just a nice B&B

Good location in Matera. Parking info could have been more helpful. Very weighted to using the 40 euro/day option whereas the 5 euro garage was in fact very easy and immediately outside the garage. More helpful if they gave a link to find out the timetable of the shuttle. It is on the hour and half hour at the garage and it is right outside the hotel in Matera on the quarter hour.

Its a Small boutique hotel, right in the heart of the Caveoso Sasi from Matera.
You fell like in a movie.
They give us an a gourgeous room inside the cavern.
Absolutly spectacular.
The parking is 10 min car and there is a shuttle. The cost EU 40.
Very good room
Nice breakfast.

Style and Comfort in Matera

We loved our stay in PIANELLE Resort. The location was terrific and the hotel was beautifully designed with a great attention to detail and comfort. The staff were friendly and very professional. At one point we needed a prescription filled and one of the staff went personally to the pharmacy and returned with the medication.

Very comfortable modern hotel in great location close to all the attractions.
I had a message from reception the week before explaining me all the details and parking options. Really appreciate it as Matera is pedestrian city.
The room was very comfortable and spacious. We has a standard , but there were enough place for everything.
Hotel has only 17 rooms , so it very quiet and personal.
Great selection with local producers or cheese and yogurts on the breakfast. It was delicious!
Thank you for our lovely stay ! We would like to come back.

One of our favorite cities and hotels on our Italian vacation. The cave room is beautiful, clean and quiet with modern details. The shower is awesome and heated towel bars were a plus. Breakfast is very nice and they have a bar that opens in the evenings at 5. All is very convenient to walking the sasso. They will arrange for a cab upon arrival or departure if you're taking a bus or train, so reach out as the walk from the main city piazza is far with luggage. Great restaurants nearby.

We had the most incredible stay at Pianelle Resort. It was nothing short of magical.. Matera is a very special and unique place and Pianelle Resort made it even more extraordinary in every way -from the lovingly preserved, stylishly beautiful and thoughtfully contemporary hotel design and architecture to outstanding hotel staffs, namely Saverio, Christian, Rocco, Linda and another breakfast staff whose name slipped my mind. They are most hospitable, knowledgeable, patient, warm, thoughtful and helpful during our stay. The beautiful and thoughtfully designed Pianelle Resort and its amazing staffs makes for a destination in itself.

Absolutely wonderful hotel. Great location with a beautiful view. We stayed in the deluxe double room which was very spacious and although modern still maintained the authentic cave atmosphere. Breakfast was good. If driving, I would recommend the private secured parking deck option provided with the shuttle to the hotel. Well worth the 40 euros. Would recommend this hotel to anyone and would definitely stay here again!

The rooms and the public rooms are thoughtfully designed by someone with great taste.

I particularly loved my room with the cave details. It was charming and very comfortable.

The breakfast was amazing ands the staff was charming.

Highly reccommend.

Well, it started off on the wrong footing, a mix up on the room type and single bed vs double bed. But this was quickly resolved via a gentleman called Rocco. Once i got settled in my wonderful cave dwelling with wonderful waterfall shower, i was right at home. The staff at this resort were all smiles and extremely helpful and accommodating. I couldn't fault any of them. I will single out Domenico and Bea and the head of housekeeping Asia as highlights of my comfortable stay. Asia's work along with her team in keeping your room fresh and tidy made my stay an absolute pleasure. All staff have beautiful welcoming smiles and were always happy to help.

I would recommend this hotel without hesitation. The breakfast was top notch and very varied with beautiful fresh fruit and home baked cakes and eggs how you like them on request and freshly squeezed organge juice. I would love to stay again.
