The hotel is a gem in Matera. The rooms are tastefully decorated with all the modern amenities. The breakfast was delicious with high quality ingredients; do try the olive oil as it is exceptional!!! The spa is another level. Throughout our stay the hotel provided service rarely seen nowadays. I applaud the team at Vetera Matera for their exceptional service. Thank you and we will definitely return.

This hotel is part of the Relais & Chateaux group of hotels so it is a luxury property. It is absolutely stunning and worth the price. The breakfast buffet was outstanding with eggs made to order. The restaurant has two tasting menu options. I don’t normally like tasting menus so we ordered à la carte but also received a number of extra dishes. The quality of the food and presentation was exceptional. Don’t miss out on the tasting menu. The rooms are built into the old cave dwellings but have all modern amenities. Finally the outdoor lounge is a great place for a pre-dinner drink. There is a small spa although we did not use it. The staff are all efficient and responsive. Highly recommend for those who are not price-sensitive.

We are traveling across Italy staying only at Relias and Chateaux hotels. Vetera Matera set the bar high as our first stop! They upgraded us to a beautiful suite. The customer service was unmatched and the included breakfast was ironically our favorite meal in Matera. Highly recommend staying here!

We loved Vetera Matera. As one would expect from a Relais & Chateaux property, the stay was top notch. The rooms are very comfy, integrated into caves. The communal areas, including the comfortable courtyards and outdoor lounges, were beautifully decorated. Food service was very good, with a special shout out to the remarkable pickled immature peaches. I could eat those all day. From the moment our shuttle picked us up from the parking garage until we were returned, Cetera Matera made our stay in the remarkable city of Matera a delightful visit. We'll return, which is the highest compliment of all. K&C Salzwedel, Seattle, WA

One word - amazing! The hotel overall, location, rooms, staff, courtyard and terrace in front of our room. I want to highlight Rosalba, a lovely young lady at the front desk, very helpful and friendly. I dream of returning already…

Tout simplement magique

Ce lieu est tout simplement magique, niché en plein cœur de Matera, il y a eu quasiment 8 années de travaux pour rendre ce lieu si beau, on s’y sent si bien… que dire de la literie, ou encore du SPA magnifique ! Le seul bémol est le petit déjeuner, pas au niveau de l’établissement. Mais l’hôtel n’a que 4 mois, laissons leur le temps de s’améliorer sur ce dernier point ! (Manque de variété, de légumes, de produits locaux, trop buffet basique à mon goût)
