The location was excellent, being right in the heart of Matera's Sassi area; beautiful views and lovely unique rooms. The staff were very friendly, providing many recommendations and local insight. They also kindly spoke English to us when our limited Italian fell short. The breakfasts were large and tasty, a standard continental but with a few Italian twists that set us up very well for days of sightseeing.

Had wanted to visit Matera for many years and it lived up to our expectations. Beautiful historic city and easy to walk around. We had a couple of good meals , one terrible and fine dining experience a massive let down. This can happen in any city just your luck sometimes you can be unlucky.

Always depends on your expectations, but our feeling was...
Always depends on your expectations, but our feeling was Matera was definitively worth 1 full day or 2, especially if you hike to the point of view on the other side of the little canyon, and/or visit a few historic monuments. We could not visit the famous trogloditic crypts of the original sin since the touristic site to make the compulsory reservations (1 day in advance) is such an absurd mess.

The must see place when traveling to Bari/Apulia.
The must see place when traveling to Bari/Apulia. The ancient city is exceptional and definitely worth staying over the night . You easily get lost when walking around (GPS is not very helpful) but it is part of the adventure;) . Be prepared to climb many steps and take your time to enjoy the unique climate of the place.

Matera is a beautiful place with stunning views of the sassi and cave dwellings. There are also some interesting attractions that you can visit to gain a better understanding of how people used to live and what Matera went through before becoming a UNESCO site and the amazing place it is today.
One such attraction is Casa Noha, which is a multimedia demonstration inside a historic stone house. It provides a helpful insight into the history of Matera and the struggles of cave-dwelling life.
Another interesting place to visit is Casa Grotta nei Sassi di Matera, which is not just a cave-dwelling but also a living museum. You can experience what it was like to live in a cave with a straw bed, tiny kitchen, and livestock all within the confines of the cave.
Chiesa Rupestre della Madonna della Croce is a church located on the other side of the Sassi. It offers great views and is definitely worth the drive from Matera.

We had a wonderful time at Matera.
We had a wonderful time at Matera. The people were very friendly even though the season was just about to start and alot of facilities were still closed. We had a great first of the season meal at Enoteca dai Tosi with a tour of the facility. Tasted new wine, delicious meats from the local butcher, local cheeses, and some dishes from the new menu. The town is so beautiful, that you can't take a bad picture. You must prepare for a lot of stairs and walking...have comfortable shoes...
The town was even prettier at night. It was great! We wanted to stay longer and keep exploring....
Loved everything.
Our standard room was fabulous!
Comfortable bed.
Best location in Matera.
Staff a delight. Special call out to Angela at Breakfast who was so lovely to us. Terrace best views.
Restaurant evening meal absolutely outstanding. So thoroughly recommended.
Franchesco C. Stunningly helpful and engaging host.
One of the best hotel and restaurant experiences we have ever had in Italy.
Parking and transfer easy and efficient
Just book this hotel!!..
Beautiful bed and breakfast in a unique setting. The location was perfect for all sightseeing in Matera. The bed was the most comfortable that we have slept in on our travel through Italy. We loved the fresh linens every day and breakfast was delicious and made to order. We particularly loved our little terrace for sipping wine in the evening, watching the lights in the Sassi Caveoso. We had a very happy week here thanks to the wonderful, kind and attentive staff.
Matera is such a wonderful place to visit and staying at the Pianelle Resort was fabulous. The room was amazing so spacious, immaculately clean with beautiful views over the caves of Matera. The hotel has a very relaxing feel created by the colours of the buildings and layout. All the staff were lovely, arranging transfers for us and drinks on the Terrace just perfect. We really enjoyed our stay .. thank you just wish we could have stayed longer.
Five star ⭐️ luxury! What a room! Even though we always go for the smallest room to save money, this room was anything but small. It felt luxurious and elegant and was a real experience. The cave spa was an experience not to be missed. This was one of three cave hotels we stayed in during our four nights in Matera, and the night here was as magical as the other two, but this one with opulence!
The perfect location and road too if you ask us ;).
Reception was kind and welcoming. Mario the driver was a big help with driving and our luggage. Sara was a fabulous guide. We loved her.
Hotel was beautiful and clean. Would have enjoyed cut up fresh fruit for breakfast. We loved our stay in Matera and Cenobio felt safe and homey. When you travel so far to Italy, it is a wonderful experience to stay at Cenobio because theh welcome you like family. Thank you for taking such good care of us!
 this property was beyond exceptional. It had the absolute best for you in Matera, whilst also staying in a cave. it is a family run hotel, and they are all very friendly and helpful, they booked our tour of the city as well as dinner at a local restaurant both at the last minute.  The location in Caveoso is unbeatable and breakfast was also well above expectations for a hotel. Couldn’t recommend this hotel enough.
Perfect hotel! In every aspects! Big and specious room, the design of the hotel is amazing. It was the best decision to choose this cave hotel in the city of caves. The hotel offers delicious breakfast with wide range of selection. Very helpful and friendly staff. I will definitely choose this hotel again when I visit Matera again. From the hotel everything was within a few minutes walking distance.
We highly recommend this hotel. The location is fantastic! The staff was some of the most pleasant, kind and helpful we have encountered at any hotel we have visited throughout our travels across the world not just Italy. The room was beautiful, cozy and comfortable. I wouldn’t mind copying the bathroom at our home. Breakfast was delicious. Parking garage was nice and safe.
Being in the heart of the Sassi was the best part of our stay. The views were incredible all the way around! We appreciated this little hotel despite its shortcomings - nothing compares to having this cave experience and imaging what Matera was like was back in the day, this was truly special. It was so easy walking everywhere from here. We honestly loved it!
Lovely location, 3 min walk to the main Sassi area and terrace overlooking the town.
For the price - this is the best you can get in Matera with only better option being staying in a cave hotel (and paying LOTS) for it.
Great comfy bed, large room and bathroom, lovely views.
Everything you need and more. Very impressed!
Staying at this hotel is a great and unique experience. Imagine living in a cave as people used to do in times of old. But add the important comforts of modern life, like a comfortable bed and WiFi together with hospitality. Also, this is a great place to explore Matera, a gorgeous town that’s truly one of a kind.
We absolutely loved our stay here, incredible cave apartment, styled beautifully in the heart of Matera. The bathroom was amazing and the bed so comfortable. Such a unique and memorable place to stay… cannot wait to return back here hopefully one day , and will be recommending to any friends that plan to visit Italy
Amazing architecture and high quality appointments throughout. Super friendly highly trained staff. Best breakfast in italy by far. Delicious dinner in 5 star restaurant. Attentive and professional owners on site. Panaramic views of the ancient cave dwellings. Situated in the oldest and heighest part of the city.
We were given a free room upgrade for our wedding anniversary. The staff at the hotel are professional and friendly. Our room is inside a beautiful cave, it is clean, comfortable, and quite. The hotel terrace is simply magical. I would definitely stay here again the next time I visit Matera.
the hotel is just in the middle of the Matera. very nicely decorated room has everything you need. Great breakfas in the morning with a fascinating piano recital from owner. Super staff, recommended also a very good restaurant nearby. Would definetely stay one more time if come back.
This is an amazing hotel and one of my favorites in our 3 week trip to Italy. Everything is fantastic! The location is perfect! Our room was large and luxurious. Lovely terrace overlooking the town of Matera. Very helpful staff. Tasty breakfast.
Matera is a very beautiful place, and the hotel is part of that beauty. Centrally located, and all the charm and character that I had hoped for. Spacious room, quiet, warm and cozy - while bright and airy.
