Parking & GPS terrible but good location.

If you have a carcthe parkinf situationnisvpretty terrible & GPS doesn’t tell you it’s on a pedestrian street. Can only unload your luggag 2-4 pm without dragging from a parking garage seversl blocks away( which btw costs 50 euros per night). That said,
good location, not the best breakfast we had….


Run by a young staff, coukd use some maturity in that arena.

Optimal location if you want to be close to the confines of the ZTL if arriving by car. Parking is tricky but we were lucky to find free street parking a few minutes away. this was by far the best option to be close to the Sassi but also easy to access the main roads leaving Matera. We were very happy with our stay. There was a private event for 2 nights so we were not able to enjoy the Terrace in the evening - but we had dinner elsewhere so it was ok. They were kind to give us a welcome drink :)

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.

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.

Very nice hotel, great location, extremely kind, friendly, and extremely helpful service from Paolo at the front desk and the nice lady in charge of the breakfast buffet. The breakfast included various sweet items, cakes, cereals, yogurt but also bruschetta and eggs and bacon plus fruit.it's an excellent hotel and highly recommended. We parked on the adjoining street paying the fees with the app easypark. You cannot drive right up to the hotel. We found parking at a bit under 100 meters away but were lucky. We would stay there again. Restaurant recommendation Annina 1937. The front desk will make a reservation for you.

The Palazzo is located on a limited traffic street just uphill from the main square. Quiet and peaceful. Easy walking to all Matera sights. Nice rooftop bar, with good views.

An excellent, stylish hotel with very friendly and helpful staff. Just one thing: we had a room at the back of the hotel on the first floor and were woken up very early each morning by the sounds of food sellers setting up their stalls in the street below, which continued for several hours.
