Very well-located for the centre of Matera (a short walk), free parking - probably \*the\* best hotel to stay in when visiting Matera. Loses 'full marks' since the air-conditioning (clima) appeared ineffective, and the shower was very difficult to use without getting water all over the rest of the bathroom. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2020 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Sara, Milano 5 Aug 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Un angolo di pace con personale sempre gentile e disponibile.

La camera e gli spazi comuni sono molto puliti e ben tenuti; gradevole e ben curato il giardino con gazebo.

We visited Matera 3 years ago and stayed further out of town. Parking can be a nightmare and why waste your day worrying about that?!! Not only were we made to feel welcome but the warmth of hospitality from every member of staff continued throughout our stay. Clean. Air conditioned (35 deg outdide). Good Italian style buffet breakfast. Welcome swimming pool. Well worth it! ##### chimp ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller 14 Jul 2015 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities #### Nice,comfortable Hotels staff spoke passable to good English, The lobby was "efficient"; the breakfast area was plastic tables in the lobby. The breakfast was OK--no frittatas. The room was adequate size. The airconditioning was in the floor. On a hot day the lack of fan circulation was noticeable. There was plastic or rubber mattress cover that made sleeping hot. The location is on a street with apartment buildings. The parking is easy and is secured at night. It is only about 600 meters from the piazza,but it is a steep climb up and down. There is almost no parking near the piazza.l ##### Verified traveller ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller 11 Jun 2015 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities ##### Verified traveller ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller 2 Aug 2014 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Un petit relais de rêve à côté d'un sute admirable Quelques chambres ...une piscine ...

Its part of a house, converted some years back, and on the edge of a housing estate. It is easy to walk into Matera but out of season (Sept) think I should have tried for central. Beds and linen were great, but breakfast was poor, not good value overall. However, if you want to park easily without hassle I would recommend. ##### Well Travelled ### 8/10 Good #### Lawrie, Herefordshire, UK 14 May 2012 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Convenient for Matera visit Clean room, twin on ground floor - rooms upstairs are better appointed Breakfast excellent Very pleasant staff Sparkling swimming pool ##### Lawrie ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jessica, London, UK 23 Jun 2011 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Great hotel: room, pool, and service all very good This is a great hotel - we really enjoyed our stay. Our room had character as well as being very clean and comfortable. The grounds are very nice, particularly the pool. The service was great throughout - very helpful staff who made us very welcome. The only (very slight) downside is the location - it was a 15 min walk into town but for this you get peace and quiet. Highly recommended. ##### Jessica ### 8/10 Good #### Gordon, Australia 12 May 2011 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Relais Ridola A conveniient hotel for parking the car with lovely garden and extremely clean pool.. Rooms are to a good standard and the breakfast also good. Management is friendly but you will need some Italian language skills if you are to get the most out of your stay here. ##### Gordon ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Hotel Chalet Al Foss](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Vermiglio-Hotels-Hotel-Chalet-Al-Foss.h9810090.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Caesius Thermae & Spa Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Bardolino-Hotels-Hotel-Caesius-Thermae-Spa-Resort.h1797608.Hotel-Information) > > [Villa Rosa Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Desenzano-Del-Garda-Hotels-Villa-Rosa-Hotel.h1115070.Hotel-Information) > > [La Locanda delle Donne Monache](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Maratea-Hotels-La-Locanda-Delle-Donne-Monache.h1785860.Hotel-Information) > > [Ai Terrazzini](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Matera-Hotels-Ai-Terrazzini.h46219936.Hotel-Information) > > [La Villa del Re - Adults Only - Small Luxury Hotels of the World](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Castiadas-Hotels-La-Villa-Del-Re-Adults-Only.h8115105.Hotel-Information) > > [Grand Hotel Parco del Sole](https://www.expedia.co.uk/SantAgnello-Hotels-Grand-Hotel-Parco-Del-Sole.h1566512.Hotel-Information) > > [Castello di Casole, A Belmond Hotel, Tuscany](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Casole-DElsa-Hotels-Castello-Di-Casole.h5058985.Hotel-Information) > > [Campeggio del Garda](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Peschiera-Del-Garda-Hotels-Campeggio-Del-Garda.h12531546.Hotel-Information) > > [Botania Relais & Spa - The Leading Hotels of the World.](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Forio-Hotels-Botania-Relais-Spa.h6133363.Hotel-Information) > > [Costa Verde](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cefalu-Hotels-Costa-Verde.h897883.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Lake Como](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Como-Hotels-Hilton-Lake-Como.h17246644.Hotel-Information) > > [Lido Palace - The Leading Hotels of the World](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Riva-Del-Garda-Hotels-Lido-Palace-The-Leading-Hotels-Of-The-World.h4395253.Hotel-Information) > > [Grand Hotel La Pace](https://www.expedia.co.uk/SantAgnello-Hotels-Grand-Hotel-La-Pace.h968861.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Borgo San Luigi](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Monteriggioni-Hotels-Hotel-Borgo-San-Luigi.h527532.Hotel-Information) > > [Residenza Olivo](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Garda-Hotels-Residence-Olivo.h39084455.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Sorrento Palace](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sorrento-Hotels-Hilton-Sorrento-Palace.h791135.Hotel-Information) > > [Grand Palladium Sicilia Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Campofelice-Di-Roccella-Hotels-Grand-Palladium-Sicilia-Resort-Spa-All-Inclusive.h2032217.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel La Palma](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Stresa-Hotels-Hotel-La-Palma.h1163510.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Du Lac](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Menaggio-Hotels-Hotel-Du-Lac.h2525952.Hotel-Information) > > [Lefay Resort & SPA Lago di Garda](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Gargnano-Hotels-Lefay-Resort-SPA-Lago-Di-Garda.h2239660.Hotel-Information) > > [Grand Hotel Flora](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sorrento-Hotels-Grand-Hotel-Flora.h919640.Hotel-Information) > > [Alimuri Bay Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Meta-Hotels-Mar-Hotel-Alimuri-Spa.h1060317.Hotel-Information) > > [Aquatio Cave Luxury Hotel & SPA](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Matera-Hotels-Aquatio-Cave-Luxury-Hotel-SPA.h22331703.Hotel-Information) > > [Torre Fiore Hotel Masseria](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Pisticci-Hotels-Torre-Fiore-Hotel-Masseria.h3811122.Hotel-Information) > > [Du Lac et Du Parc Grand Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Riva-Del-Garda-Hotels-Du-Lac-Et-Du-Parc-Grand-Resort.h19471.Hotel-Information) > > [Majestic Palace Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/SantAgnello-Hotels-Majestic-Palace-Hotel.h45862.Hotel-Information) > > [The Signature Level at Grand Palladium Sicilia Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Campofelice-Di-Roccella-Hotels-Grand-Palladium-Garden-Beach-Resort-Spa.h42025780.Hotel-Information) > > [Borgo Santo Pietro](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Chiusdino-Hotels-Relais-Borgo-Santo-Pietro.h4644735.Hotel-Information) > > [Nastro Azzurro Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Piano-Di-Sorrento-Hotels-Nastro-Azzurro-Resort.h1060310.Hotel-Information)
