Is well located and in between the old town, everything was very clean.

Ximena Chile

Wonderful location. It is built into a neolithic cave with fossils in the limestone ceilings. Very unique. It is a few step from a street with many dining options. Matera is a gem of a city, way off the beaten path, but worth every effort to get there.

Richard United States of America

Incredible! Room is so awesome…10 year old said highlight of Italy. Staff very helpful. Super clean.

Todd Italy

Interesting and large cave-style rooms (original Sasso), tastefully furnished, excellent location. Nice breakfast. Good arrangement for parking (with a garage that will even wash your car if you ask),

Andreas Switzerland

Location was great! Staff was super kind, helpful, easy check in. We literallyxx xx walked out and were in the Piazza San Pietro .

Brenda Canada

Outstanding customer service. We had to park nearby, but had valet driver service to the hotel steps. My wife forget a bag in the car and someone literally retrieved the bag and delivered it our hotel urgently. The car was delivered to the hotel steps the morning of our departure. The hotel staff was friendly and responsive. The breakfast was simple, but nice again served with a smile. The hotel location is perfect to experience the city. We were fortunate enough to have an opera rehearsing in the piazza the evening of our stay, which made for a nice dinner at an outside restaurant filled with beautiful music and singing.

Steven United States of America

Our family has stayed here twice. Service is exceptional, fabulous! There is always someone there to handle anything from a welcome greeting when you arrive. A cocktail. Or water after sight seeing. We absolutely love it here. Clean, friendly, great location. If you have the pleasure to meet Francesco. He is incredible! I actually don’t want to review because I am afraid it will be so busy we won’t get in😎👍

Kimberly United States of America

The location is right in the middle of the Caveoso neighborhood in the old town. Part of the hotel is in the actual Sassi. We rented a room in one of their caves and it was a unique experience. The room was big and comfortable and had a dehumidifier and an air conditioning unit.
