Nice room but old fashioned bathroom

Beautiful hotel located in the oldest part of town, right among the Sassi. The rooms were spacious, cleans, and cozy. You can only reach it by taxi or by walking as the area is completely closed to traffic.

Just by the James Bond plaza, really close to restaurants and sites to visit. All advertising is of cave rooms which we were totally disappointed when shown to a pretty basic room with rubbish air on. Manager was extremely helpful and luckily we got a cave room for the 2nd night. Double check what you’ve booked, standard is not a cave

Didn’t like the bed mattress and pillows not great

Great hotel, was very clean and had an amazing view from the balcony. They gave us easy instructions to park and get to the hotel which was helpful! Would recommend stop in Matera it’s beautiful.

Location was the best feature. Our room’s AC couldn’t keep the room cooled so we had to ask for a fan. TheAC was dripping water where we had to dam with towels to keep water from flooding the floor. Toiletries were not replaced and breakfast choices was minimal. We had a balcony which was South facing which we couldn’t use since an umbrella wasn’t available. Our kids stayed at Hotel S’ant Giorgio and it had a lot more charm with dug out cool cellar, lots of food, meat/fruit basket for far less than we paid for in the Caveoso. Will not recommend! We didn’t point out these inconveniences because it should be obvious-soaked towels on the floor, asking for a little more cheese and or coffee?

Hôtel Caveoso is in a very convenient location to stay for seeing the sites, right in the middle of the historic area of Matera. Near the cave houses and the church of Santa Maria de Idris as well as a host of cafes, restaurants and small shops. It is not an easy trek up to the hotel as the roads leading up to it are cobble stone (especially when you’re hauling up luggage and carry ons) and cars are not allowed to drive in to the city centre. There are parking lots outside of the area that you can leave your car that range from 10 euros/day to 25 euros/day (also hourly rates). Then a 10 minute walk is required to get to the hotel. You can either walk it or take a bus. Contact the property with regards to questions about the parking. They are very thorough with providing the information you need for your stay there. Very friendly, accommodating and helpful staff. Very nice breakfast included with your stay. You order it the night before and they bring it in fresh each day. Great coffee, croissant/matera bread/focaccia, cheese, cold cuts, yogurt, cereal, fresh seasonal fruit. Beds are comfortable, good water pressure in the shower. Free WIFI on site and rooms. The town is beautiful and the people are super friendly. You feel very safe. One thing to note is that it is a historic building excavated in the rock. So don’t be surprised to feel a dusting of sand on the furniture, floors and bedding. Not a deal breaker though. Would definitely stay again.

The property is located in the historic centre. Really beautiful built into the caves. If you have luggage, it is a bit of a walk up a few stairs and cobblestone streets so I would recommend taking a backpack or ordering an ape to transport from the parking centre. The room gets humid solely because of the cave structure but the AC system is fantastic! You need to order breakfast a day in advance and there is no option for early check in. The hotel is located next to some amazing restaurants and viewpoints. The staff were really friendly and helpful!

Lovely hotel in a fabulous location

The location was excellent, breakfast in the room was a very nice touch. The room was unlike anything anywhere else in the world! The staff were very kind and helpful.

Everything was amazing.

Well located with just a few steps away from the taxi drop. Very good service and OK breafast. Parking is 15€ away with taxi

Great place and service with perfect localisation

The staff were excellent. Very friendly. Our room was beautiful. Shower was great. This is one of the prettiest places I've seen. There are a lot of hills and stairs but we'll worth the trek.

Hotel staffs are friendly. Breakfast was very good. Nice large clean room. Our room was cold due to weather.

The deluxe grotto suite was beautiful, spacious and clean. I misunderstood the description thinking there were two beds rather than the actual bed for two people. The staff brought in another comfortable twin bed to solve the issue. The location was perfect- so close to many options for dining and shopping, as well as the bus stop for getting to the off site parking. Breakfast was very good and was made available earlier than usual to accommodate our early departure. I highly recommend this property for anyone visiting Matera!

The property staff was very friendly and helpful. The location was practically in the sassi caves. The hotel itself was comfortable but we found ants in the bed. The breakfast was delicious and offered fresh and local fooods.

Check in was easy and friendly. Choice of rooms was offered, a nice surprise. We opted for the cave. Was very nice. Breakfast was a pre-order situation (they have to get their order to the bakery), so no buffet here if that's your thing. Swift and easy checkout.

We stayed in a cave room and it was so neat. It is very close to many places and was nice to be able to walk around. The one downside was it was a little bit of a walk from where we had to park, but we also knew that when booking, so no fault to the hotel there.

This was exactly what we needed for a night in Matera. The service was exceptional. I thought it was really kind that they packed a to-go breakfast for us when we told them we had to leave at 6 am for a flight the morning of check out. Great location within walking distance to everything.

Great place - very well located

It was everything we were hoping for and more!

Very quiet. The room was clean and the bed very comfortable. Delicious breakfast. Matera is such a unique wonderful place to visit.

Incredible Cave Room! Great service! Recommended

Our experience was excellent. Francesco at the desk was very helpful with local information. The room was very good. The location was easy to access via our shuttle from the Damasco garage, and close to restaurants. We enjoyed our stay at Caveoso very much.

The hotel is under construction right now, but understood as it is the off season. The room was great and the town was so amazing to walk around!!!

This was my my second time staying here. The location and views were perfect. The hosts allowed us to upgrade to a larger room with a terrace. The attention to covid was excellent. I would recommend this hotel to couples.

Wonderful hotel in the historic centre of Matera. Great location, spacious and clean rooms. Excellent service and breakfast.

We were treated well and provided with good information about Matera. However if you have a car parking is tricky or expensive. For hassle free service where they take the car and park and return it . It 20 euro's a night so we only stayed one night.

Location and accommodation brilliant! Let down by slightly grumpy / not very attentive staff and very disappointing breakfast.

The location of the hotel is excellent. It is right near center square There is a very small hike to get to the location, but well worth it. Staff is very friendly breakfast great selection

Really pretty experience in a cave hotel. Room is spacious, there is no hair conditioner in the room so bring your own! Room is not decorated in a cute or stylish way but it is cool to be in a cave like room. Has potential to be really cool if it was more stylish.
