Hotel in Matera Il Belvedere

The view of the Sassi from our terrace will give you moments of total relaxation during breakfast or during the afternoon break. As cherry on top, the song of the swallows and the lesser krestels flying around ( protected species of small falcons in the Matera area) which will bring you deeply inside this unique and enchanting place.

Our little Hotel is composed by a breakfast room in the cave, Tv room, bar, reception and 9 rooms. There are different types of rooms, some in the cave and others abtained from the restoration of the upper floors. Our buffet breakfast is always included in the rate.

A tour trough the Sassi starts right from our Hotel, where our guests will have the opportunity to visit anancient palombaro and some cisterns used to collect rainwater: aningenious system spread all across the Sassi, one of the reason why Matera become part of UNESCO World Heritage in 1993.

Only a few steps away, there are some cave churches dating back to the 10th century a.d., grotta-houses with their original forniture and “palombari”, huge tanks used to collect water. The pedestrian area which brings to the city centre is only 300 meters far from our hotel; all along you can visit museum and former palaces.
