"What a gem in Matera! Easy to get to, not to many stairs. (It's Matera, so of course there are some) It took 7-8 minutrs from the parking garage. Short way to Piazza de Sedile with cafes and restaurants nearby. We had the spa room. It was lovely to jump into the small pool after a warm day. The room was spotless and clean. When you stepped outside and walked around the corner, you had a lovely view of Matera. We loved it. And if you are worried about the noise from the pool; you can turn it off...

"We loved Il Casale. The room was gorgeous , a glowing cave room that felt lux, and the service was top notch. We were treated to a helpful survey of the town to help us the get the most from our time there; restaurant tips (no tourist traps); and a delicious breakfast from a nearby bakery. Even more helpful, we were able to park our car at a secure residential lot outside the city and get a private ride to/from the old town. Highly recommend."

Everything about it was breathtaking and unique, and it was definitely worth the stay. The spa in the basement was also such a nice bonus โ€” especially after walking up and down all those hills!

"Sextantio Le Grotte della Civita was one of the most memorable stays of our entire Italy trip. Staying in a beautifully restored historic cave in the heart of Matera was such a unique and magical experience. Our room was beautiful, spacious, and full of character, while still being very comfortable. The staff were absolutely wonderfulโ€”warm, friendly, attentive, and always happy to help. Breakfast was also fantastic, with fresh local food and excellent service. The location in the Sassi is incredible, and simply stepping outside the hotel feels like stepping back in time. More than just a hotel, Sextantio really feels like part of the Matera experience. We absolutely loved our stay and would highly recommend it!"
