It’s hard to find but the experience of staying there is worth the trouble. Walk there first in order to find it before you bring your luggage.

Cave B&B. Right at the heart of old Matera city. Driving there is not possible, so either have a small luggage or be ready to drag the luggage through medieval streets. There’s a Maison or Casa Cava that is close to drive by to load and unload the luggages, but still hard to drive to. Just a heads up. The host speaks little English. Breakfast has a great selection and very fresh.

Such a unique property…truly a once in a lifetime experience staying in a cave hotel. If you want a 5 star hotel then look elsewhere; however, if you want charming, family-run old world charm, this is your place. The gentleman (and his dog) who ran the place were very kind and welcoming. The location was amazing with one of the best viewpoints of Matera steps outside of our door. Short walk to central square and restaurants/shops. We parked at a parking lot outside of ZTL and walked in (lots of stairs so be prepared)! Cave room was unique. Only thing (which was mentioned in prior reviews) is that room is a little damp (& sheets get a little damp) from the humid conditions of the cave, which we were prepared for & did not think was a huge problem. Great stay! And Matera is amazing!

It’s a real Sassi cave dwelling and so it’s a great experience right in old Matera!

The property was well located and provided us with a "grotto" experience which is what the Sasso Barisano is about. The staff were friendly and helpful.

Great location

The accommodation was in the Sassi cave area and was a lovely cave hotel. The air conditioning was OK. The location was great. Be aware there is NO car parking at this hotel or anywhere near it in spite of what the information says. You have to park your car at a car park about 5 km away and catch a shuttle bus then walk.

Sleeping in a cave in the middle of Matera.

The location cannot be beat! Located adjacent to many good restaurants in mirror, steps from fantastic sunset views of Matera. An opportunity to sleep in a real Sassi (a cave) updated with 21st-century comforts.

To be honest, we weren't sure what to expect. But after learning about the history of the city and what it has taken to come back is amazing! Having the experience of being able to stay in a "cave" was a something we will never forget. The property owners we very friendly and welcoming and we appreciate the work they have put into making it accessible to tourists.

The staff was fabulous; both helpful and kind. We were unaware that caves are humid, which was our naivete. Breakfast was ample. Our cave was large and had lots of places to sit comfortably, inside and out. The only reason the stay was not 100% excellent was the humidity inside the cave despite running dehumidifiers and air conditioning. Having a sweet dog on premises was a bonus!
