Thymus Residence nei Sassi

10/10 Excellent
"A lovely one night stopover in a wonderful B&B in the very interesting city of Matera. Good location at the bottom end of the town. Travelled in by car, so there was obviously the extra charge of parking off-site and subsequent transfer to and from the property - Euro 20 +10+10 = 40 for the overnight stop. Transfers were fine tho. Staff were very welcoming both at reception and check-out the following morning. Quirky room for sure. But well appointed and very comfortable. Quiet. Nice touch of a free small red wine and local(?) walnuts to snack. Breakfast was very good and plentiful with lots of the usual continental-style options, tho more cereal choices of a healthy nature would have been nice. Another nice touch of a gift of local bread on check-out."

Sextantio Le Grotte Della Civita

10/10 Excellent
"Sextantio Le Grotte della Civita was one of the most memorable stays of our entire Italy trip. Staying in a beautifully restored historic cave in the heart of Matera was such a unique and magical experience. Our room was beautiful, spacious, and full of character, while still being very comfortable. The staff were absolutely wonderful—warm, friendly, attentive, and always happy to help. Breakfast was also fantastic, with fresh local food and excellent service. The location in the Sassi is incredible, and simply stepping outside the hotel feels like stepping back in time. More than just a hotel, Sextantio really feels like part of the Matera experience. We absolutely loved our stay and would highly recommend it!"

Frequently asked questions

What is the best area to stay in Sasso Barisano?
The best area to stay in Sasso Barisano is within the Sassi itself, particularly around the Rupestrian Churches and the Gravina canyon.This area is the heart of Matera's historic cave dwellings, offering a unique opportunity to stay in a renovated cave hotel. The main thoroughfare, Via Bruno Buozzi, winds through the district, connecting many of the key sites and providing access to various restaurants and artisan shops. The layout is a fascinating labyrinth of stairs, alleys, and small squares, with stunning views of the ancient city and the Gravina canyon at every turn.For couples, staying in this area offers a truly romantic and distinctive experience. The unique architecture and the quiet evenings create a memorable setting. Many hotels here offer rooms carved directly into the rock, often with private balconies overlooking the Sassi, great for enjoying a sunrise or sunset together.Travellers seeking a luxurious and unique stay will find the Sasso Barisano exceptional. The high-end cave hotels often feature bespoke furnishings, excellent dining experiences, and sometimes even private plunge pools or terraces with panoramic views.
When is the best time to go to Sasso Barisano?
The best time to visit Sasso Barisano is during the shoulder seasons of spring (April to June) and autumn (September to October).During these months, the weather is pleasantly mild, making it ideal for exploring the Sassi (ancient cave dwellings) and the narrow, winding streets without the intense heat of summer or the chill of winter. You'll find fewer crowds compared to the peak summer months, allowing for a more relaxed experience when visiting attractions like the Rupestrian Churches or the Casa Grotta di Vico Solitario. The natural light during these periods is also excellent for photography, highlighting the unique architecture.Couples often appreciate these times for a romantic getaway. The cooler evenings are superb for enjoying an al fresco dinner at one of the many restaurants carved into the rock, with views over the illuminated Sassi. The less crowded streets also make for more intimate strolls and easier access to popular viewpoints.Solo travellers will also find the shoulder seasons appealing. The comfortable temperatures allow for extensive exploration on foot, and the slightly reduced tourist numbers mean a more peaceful visit to museums and historical sites.
