    We had a little difficulty finding the hotel. Once we got there I was a little concerned that I had made a mistake booking the room. We were given a tour of the facility and then taken to our room. My opinion changed! The room was perfect - clean, dimly lit and with candles strategically placed throughout the rooms. No concern with heating; the room […] temperature was pleasant. I prefer a shower, but our room only had a tub which turned out to be just fine. Matter-of-fact, it was quite nice soaking the sore muscles after hiking around Matera. There was plenty to eat at breakfast. The staff was very nice and helpful. The only complaint I have is concerning parking. There is free public parking nearby where we parked without any problems. But there is also a parking area at the hotel that we were told was not for guests, but then some guests were allowed to park there. The "No Parking" rule should apply to all guests. Read more

    First time I have stayed in a cave and thoroughly enjoyed the experience. Breakfast taken in the old rock church was delicious with a variety of local produce/specialities. Obviously darker than a modern hotel but the atmosphere more than made up for this. Rooms come with en-suite facilities but disappointed not to be offered a room with a shower. Probably […] need to specify this at time of booking. Read more
