Amazing stay at another great SLH property

10.0

We had a wonderful stay at this property during our recent trip to Matera. The accommodations were absolutely lovely — our room was spotless and beautifully chic, with thoughtful design touches that made it feel both stylish and comfortable. The breakfast spread each morning was a real highlight — a delicious array of options that set us up perfectly for a day of exploring the Sassi. And the staff went above and beyond throughout our stay, warm, attentive, and genuinely excellent from check-in to check-out. Highly recommend for anyone visiting Matera — we’d stay again in a heartbeat.

Lovely unique experience!

10.0

It was our first time in Matera, I would advise more than one night to find your feet. Hotel Sant’Angelo was in the perfect location within walking distance to local sites, restaurants, shops & bars. Beautifully placed the rooms are built into the caves so they are dotted around and not in a building as such so really different and unique. We had 2 rooms and both were fabulous with beautiful views. Anyone who may have mobility issues I would recommend ground or lower floors and also same applies for small kids! All of the staff were very friendly and welcoming especially, Martina, Flavia, Nicole & Umberto. Parking is nearby at a small cost and there is a hotel shuttle which is very comfortable and efficient which will collect you from your car with your bags, it is suggested to just bring a small bag but if not concierge will help you. All in all we really enjoyed Matera & our stay at Sant’Angela. Thank you again! 😎
