This is a great place not only for its location, view and history behind it (used to be a tannery), but most importantly for Martino, the host. What a great person! Martino was a great communicator, guide, historian, and entertainer and made our stay a fantastic one. The rooms were impeccable and very well decorated. Breakfast was abundant and fresh. We will definitely come back. This place is highly recommend it!

The owner/manager was very friendly and helpful. Even though he doesn't speak English, he's quite well versed in using Google Translate. We had no problem communicating that way. He found us a free parking spot on the street about 100 meters from the property, which is at the edge of Sassi Di Matera. We didn't mind walking 7 minutes or so into the town center. Great place to stay at!

Our stay at L’Antica Conceria was outstanding! Our host Martino went above and beyond assisting us with planning our time in Matera, all while using Google translate as his English was limited. It worked beautifully! He also called and made a reservation for us at a restaurant in Matera, which was so thoughtful. He is such a kind and lovely person, he felt like a friend. And speaking of beautiful, the accommodations were beautiful in every way - tastefully decorated, comfortable, quiet, super clean, lovely view from the terrace just outside our room where we sat and enjoyed a cappuccino prepared by Martino. The breakfast was bountiful with many choices to make anyone happy. The location was perfect, outside the busy centre but just a ten minute walk through a quiet street and we were in Matera’s historical centre. Parking was also easy, Martino met us at the parking location and walked with us back to the guesthouse - maybe three minutes at most. If we ever return to Matera, we would absolutely stay with Martino again!

Matera is a magical city to visit and our stay was made even better by our gracious host Martino who told us everything we needed to know and made our sightseeing and restaurant visits remarkable The room was absolutely fabulous, the bed very comfortable and the WiFi and Ac was really good. Good coffee and a very good breakfast too. Everything so clean and well kept. Easy walk to the sights and city so it was a perfect place to stay. I’m coming back, both to the city who stole a bit of my heart and I’ll stay here again for sure
