"This was a "blow the budget" trip for me and I was not disappointed. The hotel is built into caves and has fantastic views of the city and over the ford (you can walk over). My room (a cave in itself) was huge, a large jacuzzi in the centre (would likely accommodate 4 people) and a modern wet room at rear, decor and lighting was perfect. The restaurant was also built into cave, was beautiful. Staff eager to assist and pleasant to chat to. Overall, fantastic - 1 minor criticism, the water in jacuzzi was not warm, no doubt refreshing in the sweltering summer but uninviting in a cooler October! Did mention to staff and it was being inspected when I left. Formidable place, thank you. "

"What a beautiful place. Clean, quiet, organized and very comfortable. Breakfast was awesome with plenty of local cheese, fruits, jellies and pastries. Strongly recommend this place. "

"We absolutely loved everything about our stay - the beautiful rooms, the stunning spa, the delicious and generous breakfast, and the spectacular surrounds. We felt totally spoilt for our stay. We parked about a 5-10 minute walk from the hotel, in a parking building (€1 per hour), which was handy enough to the hotel. Highly recommend!"

"We didn’t get the bottle of wine and we forgot to ask for it. However, the hotel, the room and location was stunning. Specially the people who work at the hotel, they were wonderful! All of them were kind and friendly. We even met the owner whom was very kind and attentive to all our needs. I’d come back for next time. Kudos to Giuseppe for his time and recommendations!"

"Wonderful place to stay to be part of the stassi experience, have amazing views across the gravina, and still be relatively peaceful in terms of not being in the middle of the tourist tracks."

"This property deserves a big thumbs up. Cave rooms were very well designed with a lot of attention to detail (lights, candles, custom shower gels). Breakfast was one of the best I had recently with a lot of local cheese and fruits instead of banal buffet items. Ricotta was simply amazing. Staff was polite and helpful. I would definitely stay again. The only recommendation I would give is that since each room is unique I would put each room and its images separately instead of room category. "

"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."

"A very special place. I enjoyed the Thermae Romanae"

"In-hotel restaurant was great. Their desserts are the best among all we had during our 3-week stay in Italy"
