We absolutely loved everything about our stay - the beautiful rooms, the stunning spa, the delicious and generous breakfast, and the spectacular surrounds. We felt totally spoilt for our stay. We parked about a 5-10 minute walk from the hotel, in a parking building (€1 per hour), which was handy enough to the hotel. Highly recommend!

Great location. The atmosphere was a bit cool, despite the fact that it is in a cave. I expected it to feel more warm and lived-in. But the service and everything else was lovely.

Lovely Cave Hotel Stay in Matera

The room was very nice, although we were a little surprised about the open cistern (partially covered by plexi-glass) in the room. I guess that is what it means to be in a cave hotel! The breakfast was great, the bed was comfortable and the bathroom was very nice. The room was a little dark, but we were able to open the doors to the outside if we needed more light. Front desk staff was super helpful. Just a comment that there are lots of stairs at this hotel, even if you use the elevator, so people with mobility issues should consider that.

Metera is like going back in town, certainly into Stassi section of the city with dates back thousands of years. The Aquatio Cave Luxury Hotel is built into one of these stassis, a series of caves that are private and cozy with state of the art ammentities. Not what you picture in your mind when you think of caves. The staff were very attentive and helpful, our room was immaculate and unlike anything we've ever seen before. We walked 60 seconds and had one of the best fixed-price meals we've ever enjoyed - plenty of great dining and shopping options nearby. We enjoyed the sauna at the spa, which you should absolutely check out. If you're feeling a little adventurous book a suite at the Aquatio Cave and Luxury Hotel. Amazing luxury and privacy with a historical pedigree second to none. Highly recommended!

The hotel and service was top notch which I expected in booking a 5 star hotel. The staff was very helpful. The room was modern and beautiful. However, our stay was dampened a bit as the shower which was not enclosed flooded the entire bathroom in room 101. Upon alerting the staff the bathroom was cleared by the time we came back from dinner. The hotel should take steps to advise guests prior or partially enclose the vestibule to keep the water in.
