The trendy city of Matera is full of attractions, such as Palombaro Lungo and Sassi and the Park of the Rupestrian Churches, and is loved for its spas and churches.
If you're planning a bit of sightseeing during your trip, head to Sassi and the Park of the Rupestrian Churches— just one of the monuments in central Matera.
Viewpoint of Matera and the Sassi is just one of the landmarks located 0.7 mi (1 km) from central Matera, so you might want to stop by for a few pics during your trip. You could also start your cultural experience by heading over to the churches in the area.
When the beach is calling your name, you might want to head down to Metaponto Beach, located 1.5 mi (2.3 km) from central Metaponto. Enjoy the sunset by the shore at The Philosophical Beach, Ti Blu Spiaggia, and La Spiaggetta.

Pianelle Resort
10/10 Excellent
"Great option in the Sassi. Accessible by car. Big and beautifully decorated room. Breakfast is very good, with freshly cooked eggs to accompany buffet spread. Staff is helpful too. Best stay of our trip in the region."
"Trattandosi di un viaggio di lavoro non ho utilizzato le offerte come SPA e piscina. Ma, l'hotel è molto confortevole, possiede un vasto parcheggio gratuito, è ubicato in periferia (cosa che in una città piccola come Matera è realmente ininfluente) quindi senza le problematiche della ZTL e del traffico mattutino urbano. La colazione è ottima e variegata (potrebbe migliorare se le bevande calde fossero preparate a richiesta e non con la "macchinetta", che non fa un caffè o un cappuccino di qualità adeguata al gusto di un cliente italiano). Stanza confortevole, ampia, con tutte le dotazioni necessarie (apprezzato l'angolo di lavoro con scrivania degna di questo nome, poltroncina ergonomica e punto luce). Menzione di lode per la qualità di materasso, cuscini e biancheria del letto. Un filino rumoroso il climatizzatore."
"Excellent location and beautiful modern rooms. Good communication. From the hotel location you can walk without stairs all the way to Piazza San Pietro Caveoso."
"Staff was very kind and helpful.
The hotel location is far from the city centre and no good places to eat.
There was a convenience store at the gas station called Autogrill which was open and had limited options."
"Lovely breakfast, lovely hotel. Minor point the bathroom in room 125 could do with a lick of paint to freshen it up but overall anyone booking this hotel will be making a good choice in a unique location "
