Magical, enchanting, fabulous, PERFECT!
WOW! We were blown away by this place! One of the best stays we have ever had. Perfect!
If you are looking to visit Italy, I implore you to visit Puglia and Basilicata!
If you are looking to come to Puglia and Basilicata, I implore you to visit Matera!
If you are looking to visit Matera, I implore you to stay at Locanda di San Martino!
Right in the heart of the Sassi old town in Matera, the former church of San Martino.
An amazing setting in a beautiful historic building set into the rocks.
Unfortunately we didn't get a chance to use the Roman thermal baths, which means we will need to come back!
We stayed in room 8, La Chiesa. A wonderful room, the back of which is cut into the rock, the rest finished in what looks like the same stone.
Very classy and stylish room with whirlpool bath (unfortunately the jets weren't working for us) right in the room, with shower and toilet built in to the back.
Very comfortable bed.
Breakfast room was fabulous! Looks like it might have been the refectory, again built in to the rocks and finished with the same stone.
Breakfast was continental and extensive. Delicious!
Our stay was very reasonably priced too 🤗
A great location to explore Matera, but be prepared to walk up and down steep stairways.
We only had one night here but will come back for more.
Fabulous, thank you! 👍👍👍👍
