The hotel itself is really lovely, room was excellent with a great view. However, check in was awful, with only the absolute basics communicated (room number and breakfast time). No information provided around the spa, location, recommendations etc. Also, it gets an instant 2 star deduction for advertising the spa heavily but charging €25 per person - this should be free to hotel guests. It was also noisy, with next door (I think perhaps the hotel making a new room as it was in between our annex and the hotel itself) starting drilling/cutting at 7am.

Beautiful hotel with amazing pool

Beautiful hotel unfortunately our room was quite noisy. There was building work above the room until about 8 pm and in the morning because our room was underneath the road we could hear suitcases being pulled and cars from 5:45 am. We were in room two suggest you avoid that room. We did however enjoy our stay buffet breakfast in the morning was great large of selection food We paid extra for the thermal rooms and the underground cave swimming pool which was fabulous. Highly recommend the experience. It cost €25 each for 90 minutes. Hotel is in a great location right inside Sissi the old city. Highly recommend going into Matera 😀 a fantastic experience and would recommend staying overnight and not just going for the day

Fantastic location in the middle of the Sassi!! Cannot beat the views from the various suites! Taxis are also able to drive right up to the hotel, which made for a very convenient pick up and drop off. And the breakfast! WOW! One of the best we have had in Europe in terms the wide variety of local selection and service. The room was quite large and cozy for a cave. It was a little damp/stuffy, plus the floor had small ants all over the place, but can't really complain about that given you are staying in a cave. As this is also a spa, I was expecting a little better amenities in terms of body wash, hair wash, etc. They do provide slippers though which was amazing on the stone floors. We only stayed one night, so did not get a chance to check out the spa but would have loved to. Would highly recommend staying here!

Absolutely stunning, hidden gem, amazing spa

Stunning little hidden gem in the middle of the Matera sassi, the spa is among the best spas I have ever been to with a large warm 30 degree cave pool with multiple small pools and jacuzzi jets. There is also another pool with slightly cooler water and jacuzzi beds and then two different temperature saunas, steam room and relaxation beds. There was also drinking water and different healthy teas to choose from in the spa. The hotel rooms are all styled as small 'suites' set into the Matera terraces. Our room was at the top of our terrace which was fantastic as we were right next to a gate to access the street level without needing to go through the hotel. Breakfast was delicious, focaccia, meats, cheeses, cakes, pastries, fruit, juice, cappuccino etc. We didn't use the bar as there were so many bars and lovely restaurants nearby but the bar looked nice. Rooms are beautifully furnished and styled with antique furniture. Some toiletries were provided in the room. Despite being in the old Matera region and very historic feel to the rooms, the shower was very powerful and perfect temperature which is great if you like a strong shower. Matera is the most beautiful place I have ever been to and this hotel was certainly a gorgeous little gem. The staff were lovely and helpful and had good English. Will definitley be returning as soon as possible.

Quaint little hotel within the beautiful town of Matera with original features. A perfect little, ancient Italian town and we fell in love with the cobble streets, winding paths and amazing views. Bring trainers and wear comfy clothing as you will do a lot of walking to take in all the sites

I recently stayed at this hotel in Matera, and it was an unforgettable experience. The hotel had a unique and stunning design, built into the ancient cave dwellings that the city is famous for. The rooms were spacious and beautifully designed, blending modern amenities with the rustic charm of the caves. The cleanliness was impeccable—every corner was spotless, and the attention to detail made the stay even more enjoyable. The atmosphere was peaceful, almost magical, with the natural stone walls creating a cozy, cave-like ambiance. The staff were welcoming and attentive, ensuring that every need was met. The location was also perfect for exploring Matera's incredible UNESCO-listed Sassi district, with easy access to the town's attractions. If you’re looking for an experience that combines history, beauty, and comfort, this hotel is a must-visit. I can't recommend it enough!

The property is nice, but not the service. The hotel promised to assist us with our luggage from the parking, but they didn't answer the phone for a long time. It was difficult to drag our havy bags by ourselves when we came with children. There was no apology, just "O we have three lines here."..Really? Parking owner knew about this hotel and knew they wouldn't answer, just empty promises. If you want to stay with people who care, you should go to another hotel.
