Unforgettable setting but heat hard to ignore.

We stayed in Junior Suite #84, located in the dependance, a separate building from the main hotel. The room was incredibly unique — the bathroom was built right into the cave, and the overall aesthetic was both historic and beautiful. Best of all, the private terrace offered absolutely stunning views of Matera. A true highlight of our stay was the underground thermal spa in the main hotel — a magical, almost otherworldly experience not to be missed. That said, we did encounter a significant issue with the air conditioning. The room temperature could not be set below 77°F (25°C), and despite our complaints, we were told that was just how the system worked. Unfortunately, this made the room uncomfortably warm at night, and we didn’t sleep well for two nights. We requested a fan, but it never arrived. While we appreciated that the hotel comped our spa charges, the lack of resolution around the AC was disappointing. All in all, the setting and design are unforgettable, but in the summer heat, the climate control may be a deal-breaker for some guests.

Sassi Delight.

Incredible sandstone cave bedroom . Spacious and atmospheric. Cool and quiet. Jacuzzi tub. Delicious breakfast with many local products. Excellent coffee. Staff were bright and cheerful. Big shout out to Val who went above and beyond in tying my dates together. The spa is a real treat at the end of a day discovering the many levels of Matera. The staff there too are excellent. Thank you Jenny for the wonderful massage! This place is uniquely positioned on the quiet side of the Sassi. Almost all of the rooms have a balcony or terrace with dramatic views. It’s ancient history and you’re cocooned within it. Unique.

Extremely beautiful view and unique place however they charged us for using the swimming pools which is unusual and they didn’t tell us about this when we wanted to go in, during check out we found out that we had to pay. Expedia also doesn’t mention that the pool is 18+ and my twelve year old daughter was really looking forward to it and was later distressed when we were told that it was only for adults.
