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 :)

Glad I happened upon this one!

I really enjoyed this hotel! The location was excellent and the rooms were fresh and clean. A nice little breakfast and cappuccino in the morning was perfect. Best of all, the front desk people were nothing but helpful and enjoyable! Will recommend this hotel to anyone visiting lovely Matera!

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.
