Bed and Breakfasts are an inexpensive and relaxing alternative to a classic hotel for your stay in the Sassi of Matera. The phenomenon is quite recent in Matera and the Basilicata region with 25 new B&B’s opening their doors in Matera between the centre of town, Sassi district and suburbs last year alone. Most Bed & Breakfasts in Matera, especially those in the Sassi, are quite original often with cave environments, making for a truly unique stay in Matera. Many have balconies or terraces with breathtaking views of the Sassi where you can enjoy breakfast or sundowners in summer. They are usually run by the owners of the house who are warm and welcoming to guests, although several don’t speak much English.
Access and parking are not easy for all B&B’s in the Sassi, so you may want to contact us if you need hospitality close to parking or would prefer a solution with pram or wheelchair access.
The B&B’s in town are mostly good value for money and often have large spaces to accommodate families or groups of friends making Matera the perfect place to stop in order to explore towns in the Basilicata region or Alberobello and Castel del Monte in neighbouring Apulia.
Below you will find our selection of trusted Bed & Breakfasts in Matera, handpicked and personally checked by the Sassiweb staff. Use the direct link to the B&B’s web page for direct reservation without paying reservation fees.
