Palazzo della Fontana is a beautifully renovated hotel right at the start of the historic town, allowing you to reach it easily by car, and also use it as the perfect base for sightseeing. A very tasteful, spotlessly clean property with excellent staff and great amenities. Cherry on top… the rooftop bar where you can enjoy your cocktail with a great view of the old town.

Great location with very friendly and helpful staff. Wonderful breakfast. Lovely rooftop bar. You cannot drive directly to the hotel. Parking is a short distance away and you must walk to the hotel on cobblestone streets with your luggage, but this is not too difficult and true of many places in central Matera.
