We had a suite that was one of the rooms that were directly inside of the main part and it was absolutely stunning. I was a little unsure at first of staying in a cave being claustrophobic, but our room had 2 sets of windows and it was perfect The spa is exactly how it looks in the pictures. The staff couldn’t have been nicer or more helpful.

This stunning cave hotel with its spa facilities was a unique experience and we shall both remember this place for a long time! Its location was excellent allowing us to explore the wonders of Matera and we loved relaxing in the spa We found an amazing restaurant called Amoro in the main square which was only a 5 minute walk from our hotel. The food and service were excellent. The staff at the hotel were friendly and very helpful also. I would recommend staying here ! Thank you Matera !

This hotel was definitely a splurge for us but I highly recommend it. Very well located near restaurants, the duomo, and other shopping areas. Staff were fantastic and the free spa access (60 mins) that comes with booking is excellent. Although they don't have parking on site, there is a paid parking lot a 5 min walk away for approx 10 Euros per day. The hotel provided that information and were extremely helpful. Our room featured a cave room and walls and was so well maintained. Highly recommend staying here!

This hotel is spectacular. Such an awesome experience. Everyone was incredibly helpful, the location is great. A shuttle drove us from the car park and picked us up. The room was excellent, we were upgraded to a deluxe suite which was amazing. The only comment I have is that there was no door between the toilet and the bed. Thankfully we had this cool little tunnel to a room in the cave with some chairs where one of us would wait if the other needed to ‘go’. I would absolutely stay again the hotel is part of an amazing matera experience

The staff and food were excellent. Air conditioning does not work well. We had to change rooms but air temperature in the room was always above 23.5 degrees Celsius. Very uncomfortable, specially at night. Don’t book during the summer, specially August. They gave us the run around regarding the AC because they know it doesnt go below 23.5. Otherwise it is a wonderful and beautiful hotel

This was a special place to stay. it was in the middle of everything, so when you were walking around the town, you were halfway to everything. We got great recommendations from the staff for places to eat and we went to a wonderful pizza place around the corner. The breakfast was very good, and the room was really nice as well. We loved the spa so much. It was a one-of-a-kind experience. To top it all off, the rate was very reasonable! I would love to come back here.
