Piccolo Grand Hotel

We spent a week in late September in the gorgeous town of Pizzo and our experience at Piccolo Grand Hotel and discovering this wonderful and unspoilt village could not have been better. Having travelled Italy pretty extensively but never been to Calabria we weren't sure where to go but Piccolo Grand drew us to Pizzo. It's a very beautiful hotel and impeccably run with the most charming and efficient staff. Kala and Manisha provide wonderful breakfasts on the terrace, which has spectacular wrap round views, and Vincenza, Sandra, Eulani, Domenico and all the staff were so approachable, helpful and simply lovely people. We stayed in a Junior Suite (Dependence Mare) which was superbly comfortable, spacious and with 3 balconies (2 big enough to sit on) with beautiful views out to sea. We loved this hotel, loved Pizzo with it's fabulous restaurants, unbelievable tartufo and unique atmosphere. Looking forward to our return.

The perfect place to spend some days in Pizzo - beautiful rooms - got an upgrade to the suite, just marvelous the staff is super super friendly, they make you really feel at home! Super breakfast served on the roof terrace! Thank you for a wonderful stay - we will be back soon!

Absolutely wonderful experience ❤️ loved this fairytale hotel in a small town in Calabria. Would stay here again and again

We loved everything about this hotel and look forward to going back again when we can stay for a few days.

I needed a last-minute room in Pizzo for four nights. This hotel was lovely. The management and staff were so helpful. I loved the shuttle to Piccolo BBB beach club. Delicious food at the beach club. My junior suite was perfect. Small balcony, lots of sunlight. Very quiet when sleeping and the windows shut. Air-conditioning was divine. Rooftop Breakfast on point.

This place was quite frankly amazing. Our room (Palazzo Suite) was incredible, with stunning views. I could happily have moved in. The staff really went the extra mile - organising shuttles to the beach and station and really happy to chat and make suggestions about the local area. Lovely breakfast with a wonderful sea view , and eggs cooked to order every morning and a nice sweet and savoury selection. Tea, coffee, fresh orange juice brought to the table. Our bed was vast and so comfortable. Entire suite had lovely attentions to detail. Loved the Nespresso machine and the options for filtered water. Main piazza is about 3 mins flat walking. I loved Pizzo and can’t wait to go back. Some great restaurants and wonderful sunsets.

Rated the stay Excellent because there was not a choice for OMG. Hotel was spotless, the room was beyond comfortable, and the staff was amazing. Perfect location with an unbelievable view on the breakfast terrace. Stayed with a bicycle tour group hosted by Tourissimo. Pizzo is a great place to visit. The beach was pleasant and the hotel had beach umbrellas to borrow.

Nice old Italian town worth a visit but be warned this is steep , any age / health issues use the tuk tuks , but negotiate the price if you think it’s a bit pricey.
