Sassi di Matera
We stayed at this small hotel in Matera, which despite being small has all the necessary amenities. One of the advantages is that it is located close to the road, which avoids long walks with luggage through the ups and downs of the small town (which are many, believe me) since car traffic is very restricted. It is worth noting the kindness and availability of Salvério, the manager, with tips on tours and meals in the town! I didn't give it the highest rating because the pillows weren't as comfortable as everything else (a minor detail, as I said before). I recommend it!

Great for experiencing the excitement of a night in a stone. Genuine breakfast.
Basiliani Hotel
4.7/584 Reviews
Sassi di Matera
If you like unique and an unforgettable experience, this is the place for you. I truly felt like I was in a movie. This isn't a ”bells and whistles” place; this is stepping back in time and experiencing life sleeping in a very beautiful, immaculate and stylish cave. Basiliani is a cave hotel with all the amenities of modern day, yet entrenched in the history of a world where people actually lived in caves until the mid 1950s. What a true archeological treasure. Matera is beyond belief in its beauty and history. I was awe struck by its views, especially when lit up at night, and this hotel fit beautifully into the scenery. The beds were extremely comfortable, shower had great water pressure which I couldn't quite even understand how possible amongst the rocky landscape, and the air conditioner kept everything super comfortable. The included breakfast was delicious and had something for everyone, including vegetarians. Most of all, I have to say how lucky Basiliani Hotel is to have Roberto working with them. He is a true treasure, and one of the most kindest and caring people I have come across in a long time. Nothing was beyond him, and he genuinely wanted us to have the most enjoyable stay. I would go back in a heartbeat. What a wonderful place to stay. Highly recommend.

Abbiamo alloggiato nella suite ”Cisterna” (che non si può definire solo stanza). Ampia sia l'area notte, sia il bagno. C'è anche l'area colazione e un bagnetto di cortesia (con una seconda doccia). La suite è bellissima, anzi per il prezzo pagato (100€) è sublime. Sebbene la suite è scavata nella roccia non c'è nessun odore di umidità (avevo già alloggiato in ALTRA struttura scavata nella roccia di Matera riscontrando odore di umidità). Cortese e gentile il proprietario che ci ha anche permesso di fare il check-out in ritardo sebbene la ragazza delle pulizie era già lì. La colazione si fa in stanza, dove sono presenti fette biscottate, marmellate, nutella, macchina per il thè caldo, varie bustine di thè, succhi di frutta, latte e brioche confezionate. Unico appunto: manca la macchina del caffè con una cialda a testa (anche se il titolare ce l'ha proposto sia al check-in sia al check-out).
Thymus Residence nei Sassi

We loved our stay in Matera at Thymus Residence. We had a rental car and they made a reservation at a secure garage about 15 minutes from the BnB for our two night (can't drive inside Matera-- only cars w. permits are allowed). Cost was 20 euro/day- cash payment. Free shuttle arrived right on time and was a flawless transfer. We interacted mostly with Veronica, who was a great host-- providing restaurant recommendations and calling to book us reservations for both nights. The room is wonderful! Truly a cave, but a small window in the bathroom and larger window at the front to let in light. The renovation of the room was great-- as is the character of the entire city-- wow, it was a magical couple of days-- despite the 37 degrees heat! The breakfast each morning was tasty-- with sweet and savoury options- all delicious and served on the terrace in the shade, with a perfect view of the sassi surrounds. We really enjoyed walking around exploring the city and learning about its interesting history. You will not be dissappointed!
Le Malve Cave Retreat
4.5/555 Reviews
Sassi di Matera
OK, you need to walk a bit to reach it, as the car needs to stay a fee hundred meters away. But then….you are right in the heart of this magic old town. The rooms are different building and each is unique in its way. In very old walls, but with all modern amenities and comfort, and very clean. The breakfast room feels like being in a cave, and very cute and nice. We were impressed by the warm welcome and the friendliness of the staff. They will give you tailored suggestions on what to visit in which order depending on the amount of time you have, pulse some background stories. It feels like you are staying with friends.
