Amazing views of Matera
Pros:

We stayed for one night and what a location. Perfect view of Matera when the sun is setting. Got to be one of the best located hotels. Very close to one of the major Sassi's - old parts of town. Also very close to James Bind setting! Good rooftop restaurant where we had some really nice food.

Cons:

Nothing really

Estadia rapida, mas excelente!
Pros:

Quarto grande, arejado e confortável- cama principal e o sofa cama onde minha filha ficou. Colchões otimos, lençóis, toalhas e chuveiro. Linda vista! A simpatia da Cristina que nos atendeu na recepção e contou toda a história da cidade! Cafe da manhã muito bom!

Cons:

Nada

Pros:

Зручне розташування для знайомства з Матерою. Персонал уважний. Готель новий, але старі печери використані і облаштовані для стильного номерного фонду. Чисто. Снінанки дуже добрі. Матера перевищила наші очікування.

Cons:

Нічого

Lugar fantástico… super recomendo
Pros:

A localização foi perfeita, fácil acesso. A experiência de hospedar em uma suite escavada na pedra foi muito legal. Embora rustico a suite é muito bem organizada com chuveiro em torre com pressão de água forte e agua quente. Ar condicionado e aquecedor na suite. O Staff foi super prestativo. O Crialoss café é no mesmo espaço e onde tomamos o café da manhã ( a la carte / all inclusive) e com uma vista fantástica do Sassi (os hospedes tem 20% de desconto para uso fora do café da manha).
Vista surreal

Cons:

Ter ficado somente 2 diarias

Impressive view and location
Pros:

The view from the bar/restaurant is worth the stay alone, like something from a movie. A great location only a few minutes walk into the nightlife of Matera. Reception/host were really helpful and provided lots of great info and recommendations. A perfect stay for one night.
