Hotel Caveoso - Matera

Beautiful hotel, clean and spacious room, lovely views out over ancient Matera from the hotel. A unique place to visit, unlike anywhere else in the world. Highly recommend both the town and the hotel!

Beautiful and quiet small hotel in the heart of the sasso Caveoso. Wonderfully located, it allows you to visit Matera on foot and relax yourself when you get back from the ups and downs in town to your caveosa room.

This is the second stay at Caveoso and fully satisfied as same as the first stay I had one year ago. I stayed room at second floor of a small annex building located between reception and church, and the room was less humid than the room with cave. Air conditioning works perfect. Short distance to Sassi is the first priority in my reason to stay the hotel. Fully satisfied.

Great location and view.

I found the staff unfriendly and unhelpful but that may be due to my lack of Italian. (They were nicer to my husband who is fluent.) Nevertheless, for the price I found the hotel a bit unwelcoming.

very nice room with bathtub, minibar, LAN, free parking on the Piazza Caveoso and good view of old Matera.

Very nice hotel. If you have heavy luggage you should call to to get help to carry as the hotel is a bit of a walk from the square where one can park. Nice breakfast. Great location. Would definitely recommend.

Matera is a dream. The old cave/houses are spread along zig-zag paths & staircases on the upper part of the side of a steep ravine. Caveoso is at the lowest level, very close to a large piazza with plenty of parking space. Rooms are part cave & part masonry vault. Hosts very welcoming & super view from our room. Abundant breakfast & outstanding capuccino. Free internet in room, just ask for a patch cable. Excellent restaurants all round. Easy walk up the stairs or along the road through the old houses to the 19th century town centre at the top which has lots of good shops & fills up with anyone who's anyone for the evening passeggiata.

The caveoso hotel was the most enjoyable of the 5 hotels that we stayed in during this most recent trip to Italy. When I go back to Metera I plan to stay at the Caveoso.

Very unique property, located in the ancient sassi of Matera. Our room was built onto front of the actual sassi long ago and had domed ceiling, tile floors, and outstanding view of the sassi. Very nice property, quiet, good breakfast. Only major shortcoming we experienced: VERY hard to find! Sassi area is huge and mazelike, we arrived at night and had terrible time finding it, had to go on foot, asked numerous townspeople for directions before finally stumbling into owner who had come out looking for us! I would strongly recommend arriving in daytime with explicit directions. Loved it once we found it, never have stayed anywhere like it.

We were surprised to find we had an absolutely lovely suite waiting for us with authentic views. Guiseppe at the front desk was extremely helpful setting up tours and he makes a wonderful cappacino at breakfast. Breakfast was great and even included items indigenous to Matera. Piero, the other staff member, took time to assist me in my family history quest. 2 outside sitting areas lend a feel of comfort and serenity for quiet reading with a bottle of wine or just to sit and chat with other guests. Such modern conveniences in such ancient surroundings! Perfect!

This tucked away gem of a hotel was wonderful. We wish we could have stayed longer. Call when you get near Matera for detailed directions on how to find Caveoso. It is tricky, but a local man was delightfully helpful when we asked for assistance. Parking in the square was not a problem in late September.

The room promised was in a characteristic cavern, the room given wasn't.

siamo rimasti a Matera per 2 sole notti... peccato! una fantastica cittadina tutta da scoprire... ogni anglo ti stupisce e ti fa sognare!! l'accoglienza all'hotel è quella "calda" e tipica del Sud. Ottima la camera e il panorama che potevamo ammirare dal terrazino!

8.0

Absolute wonderful location (In the core of Sassi). Staff kind and helpful. Recommended for mid-budget travellers. Other options are available for low-budget ones (many bed and breakfasts in the area)

When I checked in the hotel, I was so gratefull because I was able to stay a room with small caves which I desired for. The true Matera room! In the room, there were three de-humidifier. I realized shortly, the equipment is required because the room is very humid without them. The hotel also has rooms without cave, it could be more dry and comfortable. Even though the high humidity, I had no intention to request to change the beautiful room with small caves.

Hotel molto carino anche se non ben segnalato da cartellonistica, il personale è molto disponibile anche se un'po disorganizzato,consigliato

We hated to leave -- we look forward to going back again next year. Breakfast was very good and the people are lovely.

Absoltely the best experience. The hotel staff was more than perfect and really did everything in their power to make our stay memorable. The pictures do not do the hotel justice. The views & rooms are breathtaking. Highly recommend this beautiful hotel as well as the city of Matera.
