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 BY FAR THE MOST AUTHENTIC CAVE HOTEL IN MATERA. IF YOU DO NOT STAY HERE YOU WILL HAVE CHEATED YOURSELF OF A ONCE IN A LIFETIME EXPERIENCE. I VISITED NUMEROUS CITIES IN ITALY AND MATERA WILL TOUCH YOUR HEART AND TRANSPORT YOU BACK TO BIBLICAL TIMES (NOTE: THE MOVIE ," PASSION OF THE CHRIST " WAS FILMED HERE). OH , AND IF THAT ISN'T ENOUGH , THE FOOD HERE IS AMAZING.

We had an amazing stay at the Cenobio Hotel! It can be a bit tricky to find if it's your first time in Matera, and you can't drive directly to the hotel. Plus, there are some steps to navigate both downhill and uphill. Knowing this from other reviews, we contacted the hotel before our arrival. They arranged a shuttle from the car park, which made things super easy for us. I highly recommend doing this if you're planning to stay here. The staff were incredibly nice and helpful, making us feel...

This hotel met our expectations in every way. Beautiful clean rooms. Warm inviting staff. Ideal locations. Great value. If we ever end up back in Matera we would seek to stay here again.

Great location with very friendly and helpful staff. Wonderful breakfast. Lovely rooftop bar.
You cannot drive directly to the hotel. Parking is a short distance away and you must walk to the hotel on cobblestone streets with your luggage, but this is not too difficult and true of many places in central Matera.

Everything about this property was excellent; from the initial greeting, to the final farewell! It is truly a luxury boutique hotel, with beautiful decor including Elemis amenities, very clean, and a lovely breakfast. Daniela was amazing and made us feel so welcome in addition to providing us with great directions and tips to see Matera in all its beauty. The private parking option was easily accessible and only minutes away. Thank you, thank you, thank you!

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....

This is a wonderful, beautifully maintained property right near the duomo (principal cathedral) and just above the famed sassi areas of Matera. My room was cozy, breakfasts were excellent and the woman who rents the property from its owners is exceedingly gracious and welcoming. I highly recommend this B&B!

Beautiful room in a cave with independent entrance. Touristic but also quiet location. The access is a bit complicated if carrying bags. Great service and breakfast in the room. I would recommend to friends and family.

Wonderful property right in the heart of the Stassi (definitely don’t stay in this area of Matera if you don’t like stairs!). The room itself was beautiful and one of the most unique and memorable stays of our trip. The breakfast had many delicious options. The staff were very welcoming. Wish we could have stayed longer.
