Located a 10-minute walk into the old city this hotel is very well located, particularly if you have a car. Car parking is on-site and very secure. The staff were very helpful with local recommendations and the pool was a welcome relief during the very hot July period.

The padded bedhead in the room is old and looks like it needs to be replaced.

The hotel staff were all friendly and attentive. The pool was great to cool off and the whole building was tastefully finished.

Going into town was fine however returning to the hotel the uphill and numerous steps were for our ages was hard going.

The property was nicely restored, and interesting features introduced 

Fantastic! Our favorite stay in southern Italy! Outstanding staff - so welcoming, friendly, and helpful Beautiful room with balcony Lovely breakfast Quick walk to restaurants, center of sightseeing Lovely, renovated villa with well-tended grounds. Elegant and quiet.

nothing! Wish we had booked a longer stay. There is so much to see in the area and Matera has a great, artsy, energetic vibe.

Great hotel with easy access to Matera old town. beautiful gardens. Private parking. Fabulous breakfast. Most importantly Alessia (front office manager) was wonderful, she spoke perfect English, sat down with us on arrival and explained all the main attractions, offered advice on restaurants and things to do. She was amazing and made our stay very memorable. Thank you :)

Terrible pillows. :(

great location, nice breakfast, quiet

Very good location (near the center, at the same time in a quiet area, as well as with private free parking). Good continental breakfast (w very tasting croissant) English speaking and very kind personal Interior was good as well 👍

Can't think of anything.

Everything was perfect! Location, accommodation, breakfast and service. The staff was very helpful, frendly and polite. Thanks! 😊

Fabulous hospitality and customer service from every employee and the owner . Beautiful house from 1870 renovated with great taste and attention to every single detail. Beautiful smell of lavender everywhere. Beautiful room , impeccable beautiful balcony view. only six blocks away from the old town and Sassi of Matera. Amazing breakfast great parking space in within the property. A must stay when visiting Matera

Everything is just perfect

Very nice quiet place, close to the old town and all attractions, hospitable and caring staff, free parking. Excellent breakfast, large rooms, garden with sun loungers and swimming pool - a great place for a family holiday.

Almost nothing

Good location if you want to explore Matera but have a car. Secured parking on site. If you can get the room upstairs with the terrace it is HUGE.

we loved the room!

Easy to find in a town that can be confusing! Good parking. Small hotel - our room 105 had a huge terrace which was great for unwinding after touring the hilly town. Continental breakfast was very good, all you could want in a bright room. They bring hot drinks. Helpful staff who (obviously) know how to suggest a tour of Matera. They have their own map with an easy pathway. Room was bright and well lit. Recommended

Nothing about the hotel as such. It is a 800m from the new town which is downhill. You need to be mobile to manage the walk which includes a lot of steps. However, the less mobile would not like Matera anyway as it has a lot of steps. Matera is amazing but even in October, full of groups.

Peaceful location just outside the busyness of Matera

The view outside our window

Everything was so great . Nice hotel for good price .

We received a great welcome at this lovely well appointed & located small hotel, set in a beautiful garden with a good swimming pool. Great to have free parking and be in a short walking distance of the historic centre of Matera. A good breakfast too.

only a minor thing - We like a pre breakfast swim but the swimming pool was not open until 9am.

It is a lovely place, almost boutique style. Whilst it is a grand old building it has very modern appliances and is decorated to a high standard. It was a good size bedroom with a lovely modern bathroom. The choice and quality of the breakfast was very good. The staff are very friendly and helpful and made the restaurant bookings for us and also organised a Tuk Tuk tour of the City. Having a swimming pool was also a great bonus. We would certainly stay there again.

We were on the second floor and the lift only goes to the first floor. Therefore we had to carry our suitcase up one flight of stairs. There were no other negatives.

Excellent breakfast

Nothing

Lovely spot just outside the old town of Matera with a very easy walk for people without mobility issues. Lovely breakfast particularly the pastries. staff were super friendly and helpful- recommended restaurants and booked them for us. Only had one night there but would definitely have stayed longer if time allowed. parking available. and lift to take luggage up to rooms in beautiful old home.

from some it will be too far from old town - but we loved the quiet neighbourhood.
