Grand Hotel Pianeta Maratea Resort

Wow in 2 years this hotel has fallen dramatically. Stayed 4 night .eStill hs a nice pool and rooms are delivered clean except with some mildew in the corner of the shower in both our rooms. Hotel is run down. Its one thing to be old and dated, its another to be totally obsolete like the ripped and dirty outdoor carpet on the outside dining veranda. Food this time was awful. Breakfast was terrible. I felt bad for Maitre d Roberto having to work in such rundown conditions. The director walks around all day looking bedufddled and nothing gets fixed or repaired. One of the girls at the desk had a bit of an attitude. Good pool ,clean room and sheets but thats where it ends. Its a shame because the location is excellent. They cater to what appears to be upper income people and the should do much better !

We visited during a rather wet may so sadly we weren’t able to enjoy the outside pool area which looked nice if outdated. The entire hotel was stuck in the 80’s - facilities largely clean but very tired looking. The hotel is in need of modernisation (facilitators and style). The rooms were spacious and had a lovely balcony with sea view , but again the bathroom was outdated and grotty. This is a good place to stay for a night or two but I would not choose to stay for longer. There is little to do in the area.

Amazing views…great service…good room. The room appeared updated. Beautiful pool. We were only there for one night. The negative reviews I read did not resonate at all. Good parking options too. The winding roads up to the hotel are crazy!

Great location with a wonderful view: the see on one side and the mountain on the other. We had a great service and stay before and after our wedding, celebrated in the hotel. The rooms were clean and bright, and could be even better if renewed.

Don't expect the glamorous side of the 80s. When checking in, you'll certainly notice the 80s decor, which is neverending in this hotel. It's not the nice throwback retro style that's popular these days, but the actual thing. To update entirely would be so expensive, I guess they're just leaving it this way. In the 80s, this hotel must've been top notch, now it's just old crap and a huge fixer upper. I still had a nice time; beds were good, view is amazing and there's a nice balcony. Breakfast is reasonable; if you're into sweet, you'll be happy. If you're longing for warm, fresh bread and all sorts of cheeses, go elsewhere. Kindness of staff was ok; when checking in, there was a quick hello and key exchange, that was it; no smile, no welcome and certainly no information. Later at the bar downstairs we were treated very nice and kind. Wi-Fi was too weak in the room, though perfect at the pool. The loud music at the pool was horrendous. What's that all about?! Would I visit again? No. If I could turn back time (no pun intended), would I choose the same hotel? Yes, just because of the comfort of the room (great airco!) and the view/location.

We have been guest in the hotel as a group of motorcycles riders And as always as a Tourguide I was happy how roberto took care of us!!!!! He is a restaurant manager what you look for if you need some and on top you got Theresa on the reception she makes you feel home when you check in. Thanks again for everything Axel
