Hotel Corte San Pietro in Matera was a total gem! It’s right in the heart of the Sassi, so we felt like we were immersed in history, surrounded by the beautiful, ancient charm of the city. The location couldn’t be better for exploring Matera’s unique, winding streets.
The staff was on it from the start, making sure everything was sorted even before we arrived, and they were super attentive during our stay. Breakfast was next-level with delicious local foods and even live piano music—such a nice touch. The owner even came by to check in with us personally, which made us feel so welcome.
The front desk team was amazing and always ready to help with great local tips. We’ll definitely recommend Corte San Pietro and can’t wait to come back!

Matera… what a place!! It’s a wow on every corner and Corte San Pietro was the same. Our superior room was one of the original cave dwellings, updated for a comfortable stay. The only windows were in the door to the room, which opened straight onto the street, but we didn’t mind that at all. Not having a door on the bathroom (just a curtain) was a surprise… but only added to the uniqueness of the stay.
Breakfast was delicious and served to live piano music in a room above the hotel’s old underground cisterns (which made an interesting post-breakfast visit).
All the staff were superb, really trying their best to meet every guest’s needs. Sadly they missed our (2) requests for a missing bath towel to be replaced but no one can be perfect.
Finally the hotel’s recommended parking was perfect. Easy to find well sized and secured and a l transfer service can be arranged by the hotel. Just remember that this is all additional cost though.. €20 per night for the parking and €30 return for the transfer.
Overall we highly recommend a visit to Matera and staying in Corte San Pietro.

Spectacular proportions very friendly service. For the price we paid, there should have been a free shuttle from the parking to the hotel. Breakfast was skimpy. There was absolutely no protein with breakfast and I left hungry.

So incredibly authentic and unique and historical and romantic. Just wonderful. Staff was outstanding.

Corte San Pietro should be proud of everything they have cosidered and carefully put in place.
Yes, you’re in a cave with lovely surroundings, a perfect location and clean nice sheets but it’s the genuine feel and touches that made this one special.
They had Prosecco in the room for our birthday, and sent a glass of fizz at the restaurant they booked for us. For all everyday there is fruit and water in your room, and their breakfasts are simple and classy tapas fruit cheese and cake. Water for your onward journey. We’re at another ‘5 star hotel’ and the extras just don’t live up to Corte San Pietro.
Giuseppe was so friendly and everyone was, they cared and you can stay in any hotel with as many stars as you can find but you don’t always get this feeling.
Thank you - genuinely

Superb property with a highly professional and exceptionally helpful and friendly staff and owner. Creative use of the property in a challenging Matera landscape with beautiful use of the natural surroundings. Excellent breakfast and helpful recommendations. First saw the property and met the management team over a decade ago and was treated like returning royalty. A superb place to stay in a wonderous and unique environment. Highly recommended.

Lovely hotel. Authentic sassi lodgings, immaculately renovated and we even had a beautiful view of Matera and the Murgia (and Festa della Bruna fireworks) from our private terrace. Fresh water and fruit every morning, and breakfast was delicious (definitely check out the ancient cistern system underneath, entrance from the breakfast room). It was my birthday one of the days and the hotel was so lovely to treat us to a bottle of spumante and some taralli and snacks. What a lovely gesture! Great staff and service.

The hotel staff were very welcoming and helpful. Well located in the historical centre close to some monuments and restaurants. Trouble free access to secure parking outside the restricted area and shuttle service to the hotel all organised with efficiency by the staff. Lovely spacious room. Memorable stay. Highly recommended

The staff was super friendly and helpful. They helped us make reservations for diner and gave great tips for seeing the area. The room was beautiful and very conveniently located for us. Breakfast was also a lovely event each morning. I would highly recommend Corte San Pietro.

This was hands down one of the best hotel stays we've had anywhere. The staff were so friendly, helpful, and had excellent recommendations and history on the town. The room itself was beautiful, modern but classic, comfortable, with excellent views. The breakfast was lovely with a pianist to make the environment great. The hotel is in an area where you can't drive and they made it so simple to park and get transportation to the hotel. We were truly sad to leave and can't wait for our next visit. We would go back to Matera JUST to stay here

My daughter and I stayed here in May 2024. We absolutely loved this property! The property is beautiful and unique! There are underground cisterns to explore. There is a live piano player at breakfast. Breakfast is delicious! Our room was beautiful. It was the first time I ever arrived to my hotel room with a lit candle!! Beautiful!
The property location was perfect for us. It was convienent to park outside of the sassi in a garage and be picked up by shuttle. The hotel is on a great street with restaurant options and a minutes walk to a plaza right at the rim of the “Grand Canyon”.
The staff was absolutely amazing, even the owner’s dog made an appearance at breakfast.
We highly recommend this hotel!!

Corte San Pietro is right in the heart of the Sassi. although you must park outside of Sassi, the hotel communicates with you about parking & recommends a lot ihat you can park in & have a driver pick you up to bring you to the hotel. Once at the hotal everything is within walking distance, with shops, restaurants & historical sights near by. I would highly recommmend this hotel!

Fabulous! Love our cave room! Staff is so friendly!
2.5
Matera is an amazing town and Corte San Pietro is equally an amazing place to stay. Staying the cave rooms is a unique experience, unlike anything we have stayed in before. Once you understand the history of the Sassi you will appreciate all the conveniences that have been built into the cave rooms. Service is super friendly and accommodates any request from booking tours to booking restaurants.
2.5
Excellent experience. The room was great and well appointed, staff were si keen to make iur stay a pleasant one, and breakfast was first class - even with a pianist on a baby grand to start our day. Can’t recommend it enough.

The room was very unique as it was in a cave. We had great service from the staff and a lovely breakfast too. When you walk in the room, it is beautiful. The location is brilliant too as it is near lots of amenities and in the heart of the old town.
2.5
We loved everything about this property. The location is wonderful, right in the middle of the old town so that you can walk to sights and restaurants. The room was very modern and the bed was comfortable. The two people who worked the reception were extremely welcoming and helpful, and the breakfast was one of the best we have had and served in an amazing room that sits over the old cisterns (that you can go down into and explore).

Highly recommend this unique hotel in a very unique location!

All staff working in Corte san pietro had their own responsibility to help and support their guest, perfectly. It was my best choice to stay in Matera and because of their great hospitality, we had a wonderful honeymoon in Italy.
I could feel their love towards their facilities.
Please choose this hotel, if you are planning to come to Matera.

When I saw this hotel had 10/10 from many other reviews I thought this is the place to be. The location of the hotel is fantastic and our room was a good size with a view of the internal courtyard. However, from our experience the hotel was lacking in service, internal communication with staff and a set breakfast that was the same each day and it was disappointing.

We had a wonderful stay. The owner contacted us regarding to parking options prior to our arrival (although we didn't drive but was nice they asked). Everything was excellent and there was also live music accompanying our breakfast, what a pleasant surprise. We highly recommend this property.

Amazing place in the center of the Sassi. Authentic atmosphere is combined with art objects (one of the main- mirror by Alfredo Pirri) around a hotel with a long and interesting story. Very friendly and helpful staff and individual approach to each guest. Live music during breakfast...was amazing. We had a room with a terrace which I would highly recommend to anyone. Beautiful view and unforgettable sensations from the beautiful Sassi)
