Hotel is really well located near the main square and the staff were really friendly and helpful. The hotel is modern and the rooms have nice design features. Breakfast buffet was small but nice with the usual cold meats and croissants fare. I would definitely stay here again. Location really is fantastic for both access to the train station and for exploring Matera.

Optimal location if you want to be close to the confines of the ZTL if arriving by car. Parking is tricky but we were lucky to find free street parking a few minutes away. this was by far the best option to be close to the Sassi but also easy to access the main roads leaving Matera. We were very happy with our stay. There was a private event for 2 nights so we were not able to enjoy the Terrace in the evening - but we had dinner elsewhere so it was ok. They were kind to give us a welcome drink :)

Boa localização.

Minha estadia no Palazzo della Fontana em Matera foi muito agradável. O estacionamento indicado pelo hotel foi ótimo, bem pertinho. A localização é excelente, permitindo que eu fizesse tudo a pé pela cidade. O hotel é novo e conta com um rooftop agradável. O café da manhã era bom. O quarto, embora simples, era confortável, com uma cama grande e era bem silencioso.
