Rizzi Residence

Comfortable apartment in the heart of the Sassi. The rooftop terrace was the highlight of our stay. Seeing the Sassi lit up at night is amazing as is watching the place come to life early in the morning. Plenty of restaurants and bars close by. The apartment is ideally located for exploring both the Sassi and the main square in Matera. Really friendly and helpful owners. We enjoyed his stories of his father's work. They have an amazing family owned store with not only gifts and souvenirs, but a fantastic miniature model of the Sassi handmade by his father. We were also given tickets to visit their authentic Cave experience which is a must do.

Stunning views and friendly and helpful staff

Interesting location in Matera’s Sassi Barisano, walkable, close to the ravine and interesting sights throughout the historic Sassi area. Quite far from the bus stop on Via Don Luigi Sturzo. Cab fare may be close to €20. Room is not in a cave house. There is a small kitchenette, sleeping area with twin beds in a loft for children, and a bathroom. Air conditioning was not working effectively when we were there. Upper terrace (reached by stairs) has a great panoramic view of Sassi Barisano.

Not sure air conditioning would be effective during hotter weather - was okay when we had windows open in the evening to let in cool evening air. Kitchen facility was quite minimal, but adequate for a short stay.

Amazing location in the middle of the unique sassi neighbourhood, and with a spectacular view of the historic buildings from the roof top terrasse. The owner Henrico was very kind and helpful.

The beds were quite hard..

Our room was wonderful. It was clean, quiet and had a private balcony at the roof accessible by stairs. The kitchen area was well equipped with essentials and was very tidy. The bathroom was also very clean. The accommodation is in Sasso Barisano and everything around is walkable.

Were given a warm welcome, and owner was really helpful, looking after our luggage after checkout. The apartment was modern and comfortable, nice little kitchen area, good shower and bathroom and in an excellent location. The terrace , even though shared with another apartment, was the highlight and we enjoyed our own drinks, snacks in the evening and breakfast the next morning on the terrace overlooking the Sassi.
