Sasso Barisano Hotel Accommodation

"A very special place - both the accommodations and the main reception and dining areas. Worth the money for a once-in-a-lifetime cave experience. The staff was lovely and really elevated a great stay to exceptional. Antonio, the manager, was brimming with enthusiasm for his city and the hotel, sharing history of both. He recommended the fantastic Osteria al Casale restaurant on the cliffside for dinner which served excellent food and was nicely away from the hordes. Maristella is as sweet as she is adorable. So helpful and gracious. The included breakfast was ample and there was quite a variety, from savory options to pastries. The dining room is stunning. Loved it! We stayed in the family apartment which exceeded expectations. The main room is spacious even with sofa bed opened. There is a separate sitting area with another sofa and coffee table which was very useful. The sofa bed was comfortable and big enough for two teens to fit comfortably. The master bedroom was roomy and the bed super comfortable. It was only missing a full length mirror. Adding a barn door on the master bedroom to provide privacy from kids staying in the main area would be a bonus. There is also a kitchenette with refrigerator in the apartment. The bathroom is modern and functional. The shower is small so I shared with the manager that a shelf is needed to hold shampoo/soap. This is really the only critique on an otherwise magical place. Highly recommend. "

"Spectacular cave hotel!!"

"The room was very clean and exactly what we wanted as it felt. We were staying in one of the caves in great location to wonder of an admire the city."

"Couldn’t get the room thermostat to adjust but not a big deal. A beautiful hotel in a stunning location with an incredible view. We will be back."

"Beautiful stay, with 10/10 service. We cannot recommend this hotel enough. The location was perfect, with views of the duomo, church and valley below. The hotel itself is designed in a contemporary finish but stills pays homage to its incredible history. Lastly the true highlight was the staff, from reception to the bar to the cleaners, everyone was so welcoming, kind and friendly! We would 100% stay again!! Beyond 5* service!"

"The staff were lovely and accommodating. Breakfast was fantastic. The place felt new and modern and had a great view. We enjoyed our stay. "

"If you’re looking for a truly unique and memorable experience. I highly recommend staying at Casale di Maria in Matera. Domenica goes above and beyond with her attentive and welcoming service. She offers great tips on getting around town, where to go, and the best restaurants to try. It was an unforgettable stay - unlike any other hotel I’ve visited."

"Hotel was great. Amazing views and the staff was excellent. We had a car and they sent lots of communication about how to reserve a spot in a nearby parking garage with a shuttle to the hotel. Lived the cave room and being in the heart of the historic area. "

"Nice and quiet place, friendly stuff"
