"The motel is next to autostrada. The breakfast very poor and offered in the cafeteria in the basement with lots of visitors, which makes service extremely difficult."

"What an amazing place to stay in Matera. Our room was a large spacious cave-style room with a private “wine cellar” down a long flight of stairs deep into the cave. The room came with everything we needed and the staff were kind and helpful. Would highly recommend this hotel when visiting Matera."

"Close to everything. Right in the center of the Sassi with a vip view. Nice breakfast, our room was very plain but great choice for one night. Highly recommend it,"

"Nun ja. Als wir vor etwa 12 Jahren schon im Albergo Italia genächtigt haben waren wir begeistert. Die riesige Terrasse der King Suite (Zi 115) mit Blick über die Sassi hat uns begeistert. Man hat sich damals gut vorstellen können, dass Mel Gibson während der Dreharbeiten zur „Passion Christi“ hier gewohnt hat.
Aber Matera hat sich verändert. Unzählige Privatzimmer und B&B‘s sind entstanden und man kann sich bei dieser Auswahl heute kaum noch vorstellen, dass sich jemand mehr als nur eine Nacht...

Great location to get from car park to hotel, store luggage then explore Matera on foot. (We saw a number of guests struggling up and down stairs in the Ild Town with large bags.)
Hotel was “luxury level” clean!! And very well appointed!!

This was the MOST AMAZING place I have ever stayed at. This is not a hotel it's truly an experience. From the minute you walk in the doors you are transformed back in time. I have traveled alot it is my job and this is a one of a kind. The staff is outrageously qualified and beyond helpful. The room amazing. The food and culture exceedEd my expectations. I will forever love this place

This is a unique property in the middle of antic city Matera. Beautiful views from the windows to die for, location, etc. Hotel is in excellent condition, furniture, room design, etc. Breakfast is very good. Great options for fine food in the area. You need to be prepare to walk a lot in the city of Matera with steps up and down including to and from hotel. If you can not walk - it is not for you. Parking (free or paid) is on the street within 10-15 min or so walking. Finding can be a problem....

We were in the wellness suite, room 1007. What a fantastic room! Carved out of a cave, with four levels, including a huge hot tub and a sauna, the room was so unique. The bedroom is on the main level, with the bathroom being about 3 steps down, the hot tub about 10 steps down from there and the sauna on the lowest level about 5 more steps down. You will never find another one like this. The staff was very helpful in finding our way around and addressing any needs that we had during this stay....

It is understated how amazing the location is. I cannot imagine a better place to stay.
The room was impeccable. Everything was pristine and truly beautiful. The pictures don’t do it justice. Everything felt new.
The staff were really helpful. They coordinated parking and check-in.
I highly recommend this hotel if you plan to stay in Matera.

We stayed for only 2 nights! We had an absolutely amazing time in Matera. Giuseppe greeted us with a warm welcome and gave us some recommendations. We felt right at home. He provided some waters and a ton of snacks. The “Family Room” was beautifully decorated and clean. We would 100% recommend!

The villa is very nice and close to Matera. Teresa and Antonella are great hostesses. They are very friendly and accommodating. Their breakfast presentation was great. The room was very charming and quiet. Great view.

Hotel first: Basiiani Hotel is a marvel in a town once called the 'Shame of Italy'. It is a hotel that is comprised of several rooms carved into caves that used to be people's homes. It is awesome. The decor, beds, bathroom and amenities all top notch. The staff friendly and the buffet breakfast was great. Highly recommended. Now the town of Matera.... you must go. Truly out of this world and worth every adjective of beauty.

Very modern property within one block of the Centro historico district. Alessandro was an exceptional host. He was very responsive to messages and helped us with parking.
