Clean and spacious, well located, if you can find it. Forget use of GPS/google maps. Hotel doesn’t give you great directions/support and hard to reach. Probably similar properties same value but a little better. Bed was awful. Bathroom unnecessarily huge, tub ginormous and hard to get into, terrible hand shower. Breakfast was good. Beautiful, unique town, a must see!!

Two days of heaven in Matera
This is an amazing place to stay, with an amazing view of the ancient city and an amazing staff to attend to your every need. Having the morning meal in their breakfast room gives you a taste of what its like to live in a cave (well, a well-appointed cave). I highly recommend staying here!

Location location location! With an amazing view!
Hotel has an amazing location. Breakfast is exquisite and rooms are very comfortable. Location of the hotel is PERFECT and it has an amazing view. Please have in mind that front desk of the hotel closes (we were not told and we were surprised when no one was in the front desk starting 8pm). You have to coordinate the transportation to the parking lot the day before so dont forget!

Comfortable but very poor communications
Finding the property was nearly impossible. Directions From staff or incomplete. After locking for a long time in the area. A staff member came to meet us. They could solve this easily by providing a QR code for Google Maps.

Incredible Cave stay in beautiful Matera
Absolutely incredible cave hotel in the heart of Sassi in Matera. What an amazing experience. They also brought us aperol spritz to our room with snacks. One of the best hotels I’ve ever stayed at. Didn’t want to leave.

An excellent place to stay in Matera
First of all, we had a few issues with our travel arrangements. The hotel was very accommodating and made several phone calls on our behalf. We were very impressed. The location is in the heart of the old town so very convenient for sightseeing. The room was spacious and comfortable. A huge bathroom was built into an old cave. We had ample choice for breakfast. Overall, highly recommended

Great place to stay right in the heart of Matera Sassi. Staff is very welcoming, good breakfast. Only drawback was the a/c as it did not produce enough cold air to cool the room.

Beautiful property with a fantastic location in the Sassi. Clean and luxurious rooms. Absolutely wonderful breakfast and coffee. We don’t speak Italian- so the young woman who spoke English at our evening check in was super helpful.

This is a cave hotel. Our room was on the top floor inside a cave. The view from our room faced the old town of Matera. It was spectacular. Breakfast offered a great variety of food, coffee made for you, fresh! The staff was so friendly. High recommended. Please note, if you are driving into Matera, you will need to park in a nearby garage, and catch the shuttle to this hotel. This area is steep and roads uneven, therefore you need good walking shoes.

This is a unique property in the middle of antic city Matera. Beautiful views from the windows to die for, location, etc. Hotel is in excellent condition, furniture, room design, etc. Breakfast is very good. Great options for fine food in the area. You need to be prepare to walk a lot in the city of Matera with steps up and down including to and from hotel. If you can not walk - it is not for you. Parking (free or paid) is on the street within 10-15 min or so walking. Finding can be a problem. Do not bring large car unless you planning to park in some private parking and take taxi to hotel. We had Fiat 500 and it was great. Hotel can arrange transportation too. Just call them. We left our suite cases in the trunk of the car and walked to hotel with small backpacks. it was perfect.

Unique hotel
Our stay was lovely. Our room was at the very top of the complex (about 75 steps up) so we struggled with a bags. The lady who ran the place actually carried mine which was nice but i wish there was a note in the room description as i avoid these rooms. The view was snagging though. Also, our room was not serviced during our 2 day stay which was also disappointing. I found this unusual for the style and other service at the property.
