"The location of the hotel could not be better. We were walking distance to the Piazza and the cathedral and some wonderful restaurants. There were views in every direction. There was a staircase right in front of the hotel that took us up to a spectacular spot. The breakfast were lovely at the staff who waited on us were just as delicious.I cannot say enough good things about the staff, from the front desk, reception area to the porters to the weight staff in the breakfast room everyone was simply dolcissimi! They were friendly, kind and helpful. I recommend a stay at this hotel if you are stopping in Matera, whether it be one night or a week you won’t regret it!"

"The closest parking garage was blocks away. In fact, you couldn’t get to this hotel by car. Definitely not for people with mobility issues like me. It would have been helpful if the staff gave clearer instructions and if they provided a phone number for taxi services for arriving guests.to at least get them close to the hotel."

"This property is an old palace in the middle of the ancient historic town. If you are driving to it, you will be using narrow streets shared by diners, people walking, and possibly other cars. Once you reach the piazza Duomo it gets tricky and you will need some help. Make sure they know you are coming."

"Great location, not too far from Matera Centrale and the piazza is just round the corner. The room is clean, with coffee and tea provided. The breakfast spread is excellent, especially the pastries. "

"Matera was absolutely breathtaking! The room was small but you can appreciate the history in which you are staying. Would have liked to use the pool but it cost extra and you need a reservation to use it. Breakfast was great! "

"I cannot say enough about how perfect our stay was at Pianelle! Starting off with Saverio, the manager who was so helpful and kind, ensuring us that all of our needs were met. Then there is the super kind staff that also went out of their way to be friendly and efficient. Our cave room was beyond beautiful, tastefully decorated, one of the best showers we've had on this 2 week trip - everything was perfect!!"

"Super clean and fun. And our dinner was one of the best we have had in Puglia."

"We enjoyed everything about the hotel; friendly staff, convenient location, clean n big room except for 2 things : - the toilet is not enclosed ie it has no door. My husband and I had to take turn to leave the room when we want to use it. - the hotel did a fantastic job to notify us about options of parking. It was quite a task to drag our luggage up and down from the car park to the hotel along the cobblestone road. The hotel could have offered portal service to their guests especially for elderly guests"

"It was beautiful and super well located. Nice staff, specially Maria during the breakfast ❤️❤️❤️"
