Gorgeous rooms, perfect location, excellent staff
It was perfect
L'accueil de Anna qui est française et qui nous a détaillé avec précision les différentes visites de la ville de Matera. Ainsi que ses conseils sur les restaurants et les bars et gelateria... Merci à M. PONTE pour sa disponibilité et sa réactivité pour gérer les quelques petits soucis dans les chambres. Petits déjeuner très agréable, personnel efficace et adorable.
Tout était parfait
Ótimo quarto; localização ótima; café da manhã excelente!
Un magnifique séjour dans un hôtel ravissant. La prise en charge de notre voiture dans un parking en dehors des Sassis et la navette pour l'hôtel, l'accueil chaleureux, une très belle chambre dans une petite maison à part avec un jardinet, le confort des installations, l'emplacement, tout était absolument parfait !
Rien, tout était parfait
All the staff were excellent and very friendly. The room was generously proportioned and although we were in the middle of town it was quiet. The breakfast was quirky (to us) with a selection of cakes and a plate of bruschetta. All very tasty though.
Nothing not to like.
Sehr schöne und zentrale Unterkunft! Liebevoll ausgestattet und mit viel Liebe zum Detail. Vom Pianist beim Frühstück über den Früchteteller zum namentlich angeschrieben Zimmer beim Eingang war alles wunderbar!
Trotz zwei A/Cs bleibt es im oberen Stock (wo man schläft) doch eher warm.
Localização excelente, café da manhã delicioso.
un lugar encantador. atencion excelente y muy atenta. rico desayuno
What a good location. The Hotel excelled on every level. A special mention to the receptionists Karen and Annaluce who were very friendly and helpful. I would thoroughly recommend this hotel to anyone visiting this wonderful place.
Can't think of anything
everything was ok.
De kamer en vooral het eigen dakterras
niets viel tegen
O hotel é impecável e uma experiência ampla. Quartos amplos, bem decorados (de acordo com os parâmetros do hotel), com excelente localização e um staff de primeira qualidade. A Anne é uma fofa, atenciosa, muito educada, simpática e fornece excelentes dicas. Foram muito atenciosos ao verificar que era a nossa lua de mel e nos brindar com uma garrafa de espumante, uma mesa de frutas e um cartão lindo para a nossa chegada. Além disso tudo, água liberada no quarto, no verão italiano sempre será um plus. A verdade é que deveríamos ter ficado mais tempo.
O café da manhã foi um pouco confuso. Não havia menu e também não era um buffet. Isso nos deixou confusos. Pedimos ovos porque as mesas do lado também o fizeram. A verdade é que ficamos sem saber o que poderíamos pedir. Mas sinceramente, isso é muito pequeno, frete a qualidade desse maravilhoso hotel. É mais um feedback com intuito de ser propositivo mesmo.
Lovely mix of old meeting new in terms of architecture. Great location and very helpful staff.. breakfast was excellent as was the live piano playing in the background as we ate. Loved this hotel and thanks to Anne for being a wonderful host!

Great location, people were very kind. One of the most structured hotels in town. Very cute
Air conditioning in the room could be a little stronger, given the heat during the summer. Other than that, we had a great time
Mr. Fernando greeted his guests and the staff was all very friendly. In particular Anne at reception. Angela from the breakfast room made us feel like family.
O conforto do quarto, a arquitetura, a localuzaçao, a historia… tudo maravilhoso!

Séjour magnifique, un logement encore plus beau qu’en photo ! Nous avons été agréablement surpris en arrivant : le logement est encore plus beau en réalité que sur les photos, un cadre vraiment magnifique. Un vrai coup de cœur. Le personnel a été très à l’écoute tout au long du séjour, toujours disponible pour répondre à nos questions. Un grand merci également au propriétaire de l’établissement, qui s’est montré très sympathique et accueillant. Nous recommandons vivement ce logement, une expérience à refaire sans hésiter !
Location amazing, easy check in and out, rooms were tasteful and in keeping with Matera’s history. Really good relaxed stay. Would recommend overall
Matera is so hot, so air con not amazing wasn’t ideal but they were super helpful to add fan when asked.
La propriétaire ainsi que le personnel sont d’une amabilité extrême. La localisation nell’sasso caveoso. La décoration d’intérieur est faite avec énormément de goût. Trésor à visiter SOUS l’établissement. Un grand merci

Parking is available at a cost in a 24-hour multi-storey car park, 10min drive away. The hotel then organises a taxi for you into the old town with is €15 each way, worth it as it would be very difficult with suitcases etc. Very lovely staff, super helpful and kind, they couldn't do enough for you. All the staff seemed super proud of both Matera and their hotel, which is so nice! Breakfast is included both days, includes sweet items, fresh fruit, cheese, bruschetta, granola and yogurt and optional eggs too. The room itself is beautiful, with authentic furnishings. Lovely shower. The option to see the 8 cisterns under the hotel is so unique and nice to do! The location is just at the start of the Sassi which is perfect to explore both the historic Sassi and the newer parts of Matera also. Couldn't recommend it enough!
AC could have been a touch better, I think due to the August weather, perhaps a lot of the heat stays in the room.
Authenticité, qualité des matériaux, gentillesse du personnel
Très sombre ( mais c’est les sassi)
la colazione è stata inaspettatamente sublime con prodotti freschi del territorio. la disponibilità dello staff per un piccolo inconveniente è stata totale. i prodotti in dotazione ai bagni sono di qualità eccellente.il personale è estremamente cortese e disponibile

Super expérience pour découvrir les Sassi. Personne top top ! agréable et sympathique.
Staying at Corte San Pietro was an extraordinary experience from start to finish. The cave accommodations are stunningly restored, seamlessly blending history with modern comfort. A highlight of the property is the incredible “Institute di Ricerca Anime” concept under the hotel which gives guests an insight into the subterranean underground water storage system unique to Matera's heritage. The hospitality here is top-notch. Anna at the Reception and Angela in the Dining Room made us feel like family, and the breakfast they prepare each morning is simply extraordinary: fresh, local, and delicious. We wanted to move in! The team also gave us incredible local recommendations for dinner and a traditional gelateria (I Vizi degli Angeli - Laboratorio di Gelateria Artigianale) showcasing local ingredients. Do not miss the lavender ice cream. it is genuinely worth tasting! We couldn't have asked for a more unique and welcoming stay. Thank you!
El desayuno, el personal del hotel, la calidad y atención
Il soggiorno è stato perfetto: dalla location alla cortesia delle persone che lavorano e gestiscono nulla è da eccepire! Davvero un'esperienza meravigliosa! Si sono mostrati attenti ai nostri bisogni dandoci consigli e ascoltando le nostre richieste.
Beautiful and the staff were so friendly
Everything, surprised on arrival with a free upgrade the room was amazing, in such a nice part of town and easy to get to. Nothing was too much trouble for all our hosts and the breakfast was absolutely excellent. Hotel has a really cool cistern system you can walk through which was an added bonus

Un charme extraordinaire et un accueil superbe. L'hôtel de rêve pour profiter du charme de Matera.
Les salles de bain sont magnifiques mais sans portes...
Everything and everyone was wonderful and would Highly recommend. Breakfast was served at the table and was also excellent with a lot if options.
Man who met us at the car park was very agro, pushy and abrupt. His English was poor so was difficult yo understand what he wanted ys ro do with our vehicle so quite unnecessarily stressful. The rest of tge stay and transport back to the garage was excellent.
Very charming small hotel located in the center of the Sassi in Matera. You have all the comfort you need while enjoying the history of the place. Location is absolutely perfect and staff and owner are very friendly

O hotel é lindo e super limpo! A localização é muito boa, quartos espaçosos e ao mesmo tempo que estão nas cavernas, conseguem ter um ar de moderno/limpo. Serviço incrível também!
A cama não era tão confortável mas não foi nada que atrapalhou muito a estadia. O preço do estacionamento e transfer do estacionamento é alto em comparação com outros lugares. Pagamos €30 pra a van (ida e volta) e mais €20 para o estacionamento.
L’accueil chaleureux. L’eau à volonté dans la chambre. La localisation Le cadre original dans une grotte La propreté et le petit déjeuner copieux et varié
L’accès qui n’est pas possible en voiture. Il faisait très humide dans la chambre mais c’est un détail Le prix élevé pour une nuit.
Cadre, décoration, ambiance. Anne à la réception, top.
Accès un peu compliqué et informations sur l’accès pas très transparentes.
This is a really unique property which has been thoughtfully and sensitively restored with tasteful interiors and wonderful staff. We had the most exceptional breakfast here ; complete with someone playing the piano whilst we enjoyed the delicious spread !
There was nothing to dislike - it was fabulous !
We absolutely loved our stay at Corte San Pietro and would highly recommend it ! The thing we loved the most were the people, they were so welcoming, warm, and thoughtful and made your time there special! The breakfast had so many options, with lots of local fresh produce, and you were able to enjoy it with piano playing in the background ! The location was fantastic, and the rooms were a step back in time yet had all the amenities you needed.
Uma caverna de luxo
Muita umidade
Beautiful property lovingly restored with many lovely features
Well located in the city, the sweetest staff, and a beautiful and relaxing environment.
The toilets in the suit we had lack some privacy.
Fantastische ruimte, en super vriendelijk personeel. De kamer was echt precies zoals op de foto’s. En de ligging is perfect! Matera is echt een aanrader en dan zeker met een verblijf bij Corte San Pietro.
Şıklığı, konumu, çalışanların samimi ilgisi

The staff were really amazing, so friendly and helpful. Breakfast was lovely, served in the courtyard. It was really special to wake up in the heart of the sassi.
The room felt a little basic for the price.
Quartos exatamente como nas fotos. Limpos e confortáveis. Excelente opção para quem quer desfrutar do clima da hospedagem em sassis. Equipe muito solícita e café da manhã ótimo.
Para quem gosta de janelas, esteja preparado para abrir mão disso - quem é claustrofóbico não gostará da experiencia. Mas nós adoramos
From the time we checked in our experience was fantastic. Ana made us feel welcome the entire time. Our room was extremely comfortable with water and fresh fruit. The common space was beautiful and the breakfast plentiful. I can't recommend it enough.
Nothing. We had a perfect stay. I wish we were there longer.

What an incredible place! From the moment we arrived, we were made to feel genuinely welcome by the wonderful staff. They took the time to share the fascinating history of both the hotel and Matera, recommended and booked an excellent restaurant for us, and made us feel completely at home throughout our stay. Our room was beautiful—tastefully decorated, comfortable, and full of character. Breakfast was delicious, made even more special by the live piano music, which created such a lovely atmosphere. The absolute highlight was exploring the ancient cisterns and caves beneath the hotel—an unforgettable experience that truly sets this place apart. We had only booked one night, but we were already wishing we had stayed longer. We’ll definitely be back, and next time it will be for several nights. Highly recommended!

A localização é perfeita ! No coração de Matera. Giuseppe nos atendeu maravilhosamente bem. Super atencioso. Fez toda a diferença na nossa estadia
Nada, tudo perfeito
Staff kindness, level of service, willingness to help, availability was superb, I don't recall a better level of service. The owners showed up every morning during breakfast to greet the guests. Guiseppe and Anne where always available and willing to help, there was never a no for an answer or not a solution. Mr Ponte (owner) made himself available for us to work out an errand we had to run in the local "Commune". Honestly this is a must place to stay if you want to spend your holidays in a place where you will not need to worry about anything and you will be treated as family. These people really care about their guests. A true gem in Matera.
If I want to be picky, a mirror in the room (not only in the bathroom) would have been helpful for my wife, but everything was great!
Friendly & helpful staff, great breakfast and inspiring buildings and location
Nothing, it was perfect
Quarto único ofereceu uma experiência única
Location and facilities. Staff were also amazing.
Everything. The hotel’s architecture is the classic Sassi di Matera cave, it even has a cistern you can visit in the basement. Anna and the staff are extremely kind and warm, they make you feel welcomed and they go above and beyond for anything you need. Anna got me a taxi with a very last minute notice. The breakfast is perfect, and so is the location.

Hotel Corte San Pietro in Matera Italy is one of the most unique stays I’ve ever experienced. The owners Fernando, Marisa and the extraordinary team of Corte San Pietro were so welcoming as soon as we arrived to the front desk, we were received with a smile and shook our hands like if we were family. For the owner and staff gave us a bottle of wine as a special gift. The breakfast area is not like any continental place where you serve yourself, you have wonderful people providing personalized service while a live pianist is delighting us with his music. We truly appreciate everything during our. We were so happy to be here. Everybody is so delightful and accommodating. The place is amazing! The hotel have walls of stone and we had a cave with high 20 foot ceiling round shape and I was astonished. I highly recommend to come over to one of the oldest places in the world but especially to come over to the hotel Corte San Pietro Ramiro & Lucy Ceja
Charming small hotel built into the caves of Matera- spare antique filled room that feels like a step back in time with all the great amenities of a modern hotel- Comfy beds and great showers - Annaluce and Giuseppe were so kind and helpful, the breakfast was in a lovely room with live piano music and a charming hostess. The food was outstanding and the staff were delightful- we had a lovely lovely stay !

What a rare gem- an absolutely charming small hotel built into the caves of Matera. We were greeted by the lovely and helpful Annaluce who later on set us up for a great tour the next day and arranged for a better room with less stairs for our old knees. The room was stunning - spare with antiques but it had all the amenities - great showers , comfy beds , lovely view and fresh fruit on arrival . Breakfast was a hit as well, set in a lovely room with live piano music and the most charming hostess with a million dollar smile who was so kind and fun- food is varied and to die for. We had a fantastic stay and hope to get back to this lovely hotel soon.
Tout - la décoration, les équipements, les articles de toilette, la qualité des prestations, le copieux petit déjeuner de produits locaux - l’amabilité du personnel
La literie un peu dure à notre goût
Hébergement exceptionnel au cœur du Sasso Caveoso Expérience mémorable au cœur des sassi de MATERA Chambre atypique,très bien équipée rénovée dans la tradition des SASSI Personnel très accueillant et tout particulièrement Anne qui était très disponible et de très bon conseil pour découvrir Matera Je recommande +++++
Do atendimento perfeito. Cafe da manha muito bom. Cordialidade dos prestadores.
A iluminação do quarto pode ser melhorada.
Peculiaridade, aconchegante diferente
Iluminação um pouco fraca, falta uma divisão entre o banheiro e o quarto para dar mais privacidade
Uma experiência incrível de como viviam os humanos nas cavernas. Para nunca esquecer. Valeu muito. Recomendo

Excelente estadia!
Hôtel majestueux, à l'emplacement exceptionnel ! Les chambres sont décorées avec goût, le personnel est ultra accueillant. Nous avons eu droit à un pianiste pendant le petit déjeuner, magique !
This hotel was beyond magical, very well designed, the staff was spectacular and the food was amazing! However, when we arrived to the hotel they had a Palestinian flag on their roof. Now, being a person from israel that is in conflict with Palestinians that felt very threatening and not welcoming. They had realized we were from israel and took the flag off in hopes we don’t notice it. But, I noticed it the moment I arrived! I loved the hotel and decided to stay but in the back of my mind I was always in fear that something may happen. This is antisemitism in my opinion and that is my One complaint about this hotel. Anyone can have their political opinion but you don’t have to have it flying in the air. We could have caused a commotion and leave the hotel but we were too tired for that. However, this isn’t the right thing to do as you never know where your guest may come from and everyone should feel welcomed and safe!

The staff were incredibly helpful, great location, the main building with its cisterns and courtyard makes you feel as if you are in another era. Do be aware that many some of the rooms are in buildings that are carved into the rock, consistent with the original structure of old town Matera.
Hotel muy pintoresco, las piezas son unicas e increíbles. La atencion del personal es impresionante, todos contents y muy ambles. El desayuno es una experiencia imperdible y la ubicacion del hotel extraordinaria.
Beautifully located in the heart of old Matera. Lovely room & drinks courtyard, great breakfast and a treat to pop down to the caves literally below us.

Be aware - there is no door in the bathroom, only a curtain.
Great staff! They recommended awesome restaurants and were very polite and responsive. Breakfast was great with live pianist!

Stunning property with historic cisterns below, beautiful art, plants, decor, Piano player at breakfast, peaceful courtyard and comfortable rooms. But what really makes this place special is everyone who works here is welcoming and helpful. What a special place!
