Cave holiday rentals in Matera

Giuseppe was a great host. Very responsive and friendly. The house was super clean and just like the pictures. The outdoor terrace on the Sassi is breathtaking and really add values to the stay. I would highly recommend or stay here again.

Great location and views

Beautiful apartment, with many quality details combined with the rusticity of the cave house. The combination is perfect. Marcella gave us many recommendations and was our tour guide. Very close to the restaurant area, bakeries, and souvenirs. It has unforgettable views!

Well designed and simply but effectively furnished accommodation, with good shower and facilities. There is good lighting and obvious electricity sockets if required. If you want to sit out for a late breakfast at the small table in the narrow entrance alleyway catches the sun for an hour or so (around 1100 when we were there in May). Plenty of local maps and information booklets were available. It is situated a short and reasonably level (only about 8 steps in total) walk from Piazza Vitoria Veneto, so a wheelie suitcase isn’t too much of a problem in the pedestrian only area. Good eateries and cafes nearby, but a gas hob is available if you want to eat in. Good property info folder. We used the secure car park recommended in your initial information - Garage Damasco. Although it cost €25 a day we felt we could leave it without any problems. One of the suggested experiences was Slow Food - Home Restaurant where we cooked an Italian meal in the chef’s home kitchen. Brilliant.

Could use a long list of words to describe the location and Matera. Stunning is the right one. Location is breathtaking. You feel like you are simply part of the stones.

Seeing something beautiful creates a memory. Experiencing something beautiful leaves a feeling in your soul — one you can return to. Hotel Moyseion in Matera is a place I’ll never forget. Matera, one of the oldest continually inhabited places on Earth, is rich in history and carved from stone. But for me, it’s not about landmarks — it’s about how people lived, their stories, and resilience. If you prefer curated, passive travel, this may not be your place. But if you’re someone who finds joy in winding roads, unexpected conversations, and authentic experiences, you’ll love it here. The hotel itself is stunning — the underground pool may be the best I’ve ever swum in. But what truly sets it apart is the staff: their passion, musicality, knowledge, and love for the region brought everything to life. If you’re curious, thoughtful, and want to truly feel a place, this stay will stay with you. Bravo to the Moyseion team — you’ve created something unforgettable.

A lovely, comfortable room in a great location in the old town of Matera

My boyfriend and I stayed at Moyseion's place for a night. It's truly an experience you won't get anywhere else in Matera. There is extremely much detail in this listing. Each room has its own theme that has a story behind it. In addition to the spaces, the staff is also extremely helpful and hospitable. You can ask them anything and they are happy to tell about the historical elements of the stay. We really enjoyed it and recommend it to anyone who is in doubt! P.S. If you have any doubts about joining the rituals, be sure to do so!
