Family Vacation in Italy

Enjoyed our one night stay in the cave hotel. Fun experience with our family to spend night in a cave hotel. Ideal location for seeing sights of the old city and step away from amazing views and many options for restaurants. Breakfast was good. Parking is a bit far (still a manageable walk with our luggage); however the area is a no driving zone, which they notify you in booking.

Great location, spacious rooms

Beautiful hotel located in the oldest part of town, right among the Sassi. The rooms were spacious, cleans, and cozy. You can only reach it by taxi or by walking as the area is completely closed to traffic.

Just by the James Bond plaza, really close to restaurants and sites to visit. All advertising is of cave rooms which we were totally disappointed when shown to a pretty basic room with rubbish air on. Manager was extremely helpful and luckily we got a cave room for the 2nd night. Double check what you’ve booked, standard is not a cave

Maria

Location was the best feature. Our room’s AC couldn’t keep the room cooled so we had to ask for a fan. TheAC was dripping water where we had to dam with towels to keep water from flooding the floor. Toiletries were not replaced and breakfast choices was minimal. We had a balcony which was South facing which we couldn’t use since an umbrella wasn’t available. Our kids stayed at Hotel S’ant Giorgio and it had a lot more charm with dug out cool cellar, lots of food, meat/fruit basket for far less than we paid for in the Caveoso. Will not recommend! We didn’t point out these inconveniences because it should be obvious-soaked towels on the floor, asking for a little more cheese and or coffee?

Hôtel Caveoso is in a very convenient location to stay for seeing the sites, right in the middle of the historic area of Matera. Near the cave houses and the church of Santa Maria de Idris as well as a host of cafes, restaurants and small shops. It is not an easy trek up to the hotel as the roads leading up to it are cobble stone (especially when you’re hauling up luggage and carry ons) and cars are not allowed to drive in to the city centre. There are parking lots outside of the area that you can leave your car that range from 10 euros/day to 25 euros/day (also hourly rates). Then a 10 minute walk is required to get to the hotel. You can either walk it or take a bus. Contact the property with regards to questions about the parking. They are very thorough with providing the information you need for your stay there. Very friendly, accommodating and helpful staff. Very nice breakfast included with your stay. You order it the night before and they bring it in fresh each day. Great coffee, croissant/matera bread/focaccia, cheese, cold cuts, yogurt, cereal, fresh seasonal fruit. Beds are comfortable, good water pressure in the shower. Free WIFI on site and rooms. The town is beautiful and the people are super friendly. You feel very safe. One thing to note is that it is a historic building excavated in the rock. So don’t be surprised to feel a dusting of sand on the furniture, floors and bedding. Not a deal breaker though. Would definitely stay again.

The property is located in the historic centre. Really beautiful built into the caves. If you have luggage, it is a bit of a walk up a few stairs and cobblestone streets so I would recommend taking a backpack or ordering an ape to transport from the parking centre. The room gets humid solely because of the cave structure but the AC system is fantastic! You need to order breakfast a day in advance and there is no option for early check in. The hotel is located next to some amazing restaurants and viewpoints. The staff were really friendly and helpful!
