PIANELLE RESORT

Cave style rooms, large, clean and stylishly appointed with a small lounge space. Nice breakfast and excellent coffee in a lovely setting. Hotel is towards the bottom end of the town and is a great base for exploring the sights of Matera. They offer transfers (luggage and ourselves) from parking area at E15 each way, so we parked our car in secure parking and used that service..it's only a 5minute drive to the parking. If you have packed light and you are willing to deal with the many steps and cobblestones you might not need it. I think it was also fair value for money

Nothing of note that we didn't like about our stay.

The location at Piazza San Pietro is great, amazing view just 10 meters from the hotel. When we entered the room we were just amazed at the fact that this is a cave yet so modern and well designed. The room was super spacious, way larger than we expected. All the facilities were at the highest level and well designed.

Transportation. We got a message from the hotel with parking options, the first was very expensive with a total of €50 which seemed a bit much, the second was a public parking and a shuttle operated by the city which we chose to use but the instructions from the hotel weren't great and we couldn't find the shuttle stop, we ended up taking an Uber. The breakfast was ok but given the level we saw in the room and the facilities we expected a bit more variety.

The room is beautifully designed. The staff is lovely. The location is perfect.

The breakfast wasn’t great. The wait staff is wonderful.

The bed was comfortable and the bathroom was really nice. The location is also amazing and the hotel has a rooftop bar only for its guests.

The air conditioning is very loud, we felt like we had construction works going on next to our room. It was also very intense and there was no night mode to select.
