Hotel and B&B info

Matera has a historic district known as "i Sassi," which is very picturesque and offers a variety of bed and breakfast options. These accommodations are typically housed in ancient buildings. Bear in mind that these accommodations are not always easily accessible and that this part of town restricts car traffic. The wedding venue, the Masseria, is located just outside Matera. Nearby, there are additional apartment-style accommodations, ideal for groups of four or more who wish to stay together. These apartments provide a more affordable alternative to staying in the Sassi and are a 10-minute drive from the Matera city centre and i Sassi.
