Hotel Basilicata
Basiliani Hotel is set in the Sasso Caveoso archaeological area of Matera. It is a design hotel which offers the perfect blend of historic charm, modern amenities and dynamic location. From the rooms you can grasp breathtaking views of the prehistoric caves that you can see from the windows on the opposite Murgia plateau, included in the list of Unesco Heritage Sites. The hotel has 11 spacious and independent guestrooms set in ancient buildings. Each room is individually designed in a contemporary minimalist style. They are partly built and partly caved out of the local tufa stone. Inside our guests can observe the bell-shaped cisterns that natives have used for the collection of rain water since the Neolithic Age, a system that has concurred to make Matera one of the oldest and best preserved examples of bio-architecture. Each room features air-conditioning, free Wi-Fi access, TV, minibar, private bathroom, shower, bath, hairdryer, courtesy kit. One room is reserved for disabled guests. The hotel is in a central position, just a short walk from the most interesting points of cultural interest of the town. It has opened in 2010 after restoration works that provided it with all modern and technological comforts. Basiliani's multilingual staff are available at the reception in the hotel's main building where a typical Italian breakfast inclusive in rate is served daily. There’s a free parking available.
