We only had one night in Matera at the end of a 2-week road trip and decided it would be more convenient to stay just outside the old town. We then drove to the old town and easily found parking (this was the end of May, not sure how easy this would be in high season). We also took a taxi there and back in the evening which cost 15-20 euros each way. The hotel was really comfortable, room was modern, all the staff were super-friendly and helpful, and the breakfast was excellent with plenty of choice. In terms of decor, facilities and comfort, this was by far the best hotel we'd stayed in during our trip.

The only downside is the traffic noise as it's located at a busy road junction. But this is pointed out in the reviews so we expected it, especially considering the price we paid, and to be honest everything else about the hotel was extremely positive.

The staff were very kind and helpful, and specifically a lady (apologies, I don't remember the name, but it was starting with an A), who helped us with sightseeing advice and also recommended some amazing restaurants - top recommendations really! The garden is lovely, breakfast very diverse and delicious. The room was spacious and comfortable. Overall, we had a fantastic stay and we regretted booking for only a single night. We happened to be there on my birthday and I had a really wonderful time.

The location is a bit awkward if you want to go to the Sassi by public transport, but it's manageable.

We especially liked the friendliness of the staff, everybody was ever so nice, they had a lot of useful information about the area, places to visit, restaurant recommendations etc. We had a very spacious suite wich came with a beautiful modern bathroom. During our last visit in Matera we stayed in a cave hotel where our room was humid and cold. We therefore opted for a comfortable hotel room with a well working central heating. Everything was impeccably clean. The breakfast had a very good choice of sweet and savoury items. We did not have the time to use the spa facilities, but maybe another time. The hotel has a parking just outside in the courtyard and two elevators for easy luggage transport. This would certainly be the hotel of our choice for a next visit to Matera.

Beautiful integration between old stone structures and modern finishes. The room was large and equipped with kitchen facilities. The location is just outside the center, but with easy parking for the car. The personnel was outstanding in terms of friendliness, customer mindset, and promptness to response!

Breakfast food selection could be improved in terms of variety

First it is conveniente if you are with your car. The atmosphere of the place is very good. The room is spacious and decorated with modern simplicity. The bathroom is also spacious and loved the amenities, which shows the thoughts to proportionate the best to the customers. The breakfast was also very good.

The staff were fantastic, very helpful, courteous and relaxed. All of the furniture and bathroom fittings were high end expensive type fittings and it was honestly one of the cleanest places we have stayed in. The food at breakfast time was well presented and again with high quality produce.

It was a little difficult to see the hotels signage from the road so we drove past it a few times.

Wonderful staff, breakfast and very comfortable and clean room. The staff helped us with maps and taxis as well, which was great. Super spot for visiting Matera for a night and then driving to Bari airport the next day with our rental car.

Taxis are about €20 to the old town area, so it’s a bit too expensive to go exploring in Matera, come back to the hotel to refresh and then head out again.

The breakfast here was awesome! Everything in my room was pretty clean, and the balcony was a treat. Staff very friendly! About a 10 minute drive from a parking garage where you can park and then walk down into Matera and you can park for free on the hotel property. Definitely an ideal way to see Matera so you’re not driving down all the tiny narrow roads in the city.

Found some loose hairs and a fingernail/toenail clipping on the floor. Besides that, the room was spotless as well as bathroom!

The staff were extremely friendly and helpful, could not praise them highly enough. Rooms were modern, very clean, nothing lacking at all. Breakfasts were delicious with plenty of choices.

Only negative and it's not much of an issue is that it is a little bit too far to walk to the centre. There are taxis available however.

Modern facility with spacious rooms. The shower pressure was strong. Easy parking onsite. The host was extremely helpful with options for sightseeing and parking in town. Would highly recommend.
