Best hotel stay for our entire 1 mth trip
Mario has been helping us to navigate around the town and book transfer for us. He addresses us with our names and makes us feels like home in this old ancient city. We love our stay in Cenobio and the room is fantastic and clean. It's an experience to stay in a cave room

It was a wonderful stay. The staff went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable. If you are driving make sure to get in touch with hotel prior to arrival to make necessary parking arrangements. They will send shuttle for you, at extra cost, but totally worth it to transport your luggage to hotel. I'd definitely stay again!

O Hotel é bem bonito, quarto lindo. Bem limpo. Café da manhã gostoso. E como se trata de uma parte da cidade que só entra carro se for cadastrado de nativos, precisa deixar o carro em um estacionamento na cidade, indicado pelo hotel, e se estiver com mala, precisa chamar o carro do hotel para transporte, se paga 15 euros pelo serviço, pois é longe e o caminho cheio de subidas e escadas. Se colocar o nome do hotel ou endereço no Google maps, a localização não leva ao local correto, então, precisa ligar para a recepção qdo estiver na praça principal para que alguem vá encontrar para levar ao hotel, caso resolva ir a pé do estacionamento, ou não esteja de carro. A cidade é linda.

We had an amazing stay at the Cenobio Hotel! It can be a bit tricky to find if it's your first time in Matera, and you can't drive directly to the hotel. Plus, there are some steps to navigate both downhill and uphill. Knowing this from other reviews, we contacted the hotel before our arrival. They arranged a shuttle from the car park, which made things super easy for us. I highly recommend doing this if you're planning to stay here. The staff were incredibly nice and helpful, making us feel right at home. Matera, and especially our stay at the Cenobio Hotel, turned out to be one of the best parts of our trip to Italy.
