Sant'Angelo, Matera - Small Luxury Hotels

This was our first time to Matera and it was amazing! The hotel is located near the iconic rock church Santa Maria di Idris. Our room had a patio with views of that church. The hotel is also located a short walk from the entrance to the hike to Belvedere Murgia Timone - a must do for those who can handle a one hour hike (one way). There were also a number of excellent restaurants nearby. We were not sure what to expect in a cave room but thoroughly enjoyed it. The room had a luxurious bath, a lounger with TV, and a four poster bed set on a stone base. It should be noted that the only natural light is at the entrance to the room. Caterina at reception helped to make our stay very enjoyable. She provided a number of recommendations on what to see and do in Matera. And she provided a list of recommended restaurants outside - but near - the hotel.

La habitación muy cómoda aunque no funcionó el aire acondicionado y estaba frío !!!!

El lugar del desayuno y la cena no es xa personas c dificultad xa subir escaleras sobre todo en días d lluvia es muy peligroso

Staying at Sant’Angelo was like stepping into a dream. The hotel is carved into the ancient stone of the Sassi, and every corner feels like a piece of living history. Our room was beautifully designed, blending the cave’s natural textures with elegant touches and modern comfort. The views over Piazza San Pietro Caveoso were breathtaking, especially at sunrise. The staff were incredibly welcoming and attentive. They helped us with bookings and local recommendations, and made our stay feel truly special and luxurious. Their warmth and professionalism added so much to the experience. The location made it easy to explore the winding alleys and nearby landmarks on foot. We left feeling like we’d experienced something truly unique and unforgettable. Highly recommended for anyone wanting to immerse themselves in the soul of Matera.

We had a fantastic stay. The location was perfect especially since we were only in Matera for one night. Our room was luxurious, super cool to be able to sleep in the cave. Comfortable beds, great service, restaurant excellent. Worth it to stay in the old town and for the experience of sleeping in the cave.

Lage, Atmosphäre

A must do in Matera, stay in a cave room. And Sant'angelo is a perfect spot, located across from the church in the rock. Pick a room away from the restaurant to have a more quiet evening.

Overall very nice, food quality was excellent but our room was a little dark and we were not in a cave. Sommelier was a bit condescending asking us about our "hangover" one morning as we had two bottles of wine- in appropriate

Lovely place at a lovely location. We had a beautiful time at a beautiful town. Worth a visit. Nice people running the place:
