"Beautiful resort in the hills of Pizzo. Reception staff with excellent customer service. Arrived in the evening and woke up to a nice breakfast and walk on the beautiful gardens, panoramic views and premises"
"Our stay at the Piccolo Grand Hotel was nothing short of exceptional. Nestled in the charming old town of Pizzo, this boutique hotel perfectly blends modern comfort with authentic Italian character.
From the moment we arrived, the staff made us feel genuinely welcome. They were warm, helpful, and always ready with great local recommendations — whether it was where to find the best tartufo gelato (hint: it’s nearby!) or the most scenic spots to watch the sunset.
The room was stylish, spotless, and thoughtfully designed with high-end touches — especially the rain shower and incredibly comfortable bed. We had a beautiful balcony with a small view of the sea.
Breakfast on the rooftop terrace was a daily highlight. Fresh fruit, pastries, eggs and cappuccinos with a view of the Calabrian coast — it’s the kind of morning that makes you want to stay forever.
The location is perfect for exploring. Just a few steps from the main piazza, restaurants, cafes, and the historic castle, yet tucked away enough to feel peaceful and private.
If you’re visiting southern Italy and want a boutique hotel that offers style, service, and soul — Piccolo Grand Hotel is the place. We can’t wait to return!"
"Leaking ceilings onto hallway carpeting. Booked in March for a Sept stay and was given an unacceptable room overlooking a roof when I inquired, they change us to at least a street view. Very hot rooms, was not able to control air-conditioning to be cooler, it was controlled by the front desk.🙄😵💫 I will say Patricia at the front desk was the most helpful of anyone at this hotel"
"The breakfast was wonderful, especially sitting in the peace and tranquility outside. The pool was enjoyed during the hot days. The staff was friendly, professional and friendly. We will be back.
Our only recommendation for an improvement would be entrance signage. The marked entrance was closed with a gate and had a small sign indicating the new entrance. the new entrance wasn’t marked.
