B&B Donna Eleonora

Absolutely perfect location. Clean modern bright room, great breakfast, elevator to room. Very safe she just has a few rooms. We walked from casa noha to st idris. Lots of stairs but doable for older people. All was great!

Everything. The location could not be better. The room was very clean, the breakfasts were excellent, the host was very welcoming and organised a taxi for me. Nothing.

Really, really well located property and really helpful staff! Easy to find, close to absolutely everything you need in matera! My room was small but comfortable: great hot and cold shower with great pressure. Mini bar with a few drinks with fair price. Breakfast was really yummy. The staff were friendly and super helpful. They literally took me to the bus station on my last day as well as giving me all directions I needed to travel from matera to bari on time. Would definitely stay here again. To have power in the room you have to put a little key on the wall to turn it all on. But in the same keychain you have the key for the room: So basically to lock and unlock the room you need to take the power key out of the wall, which automatically turns the power off! So you are in the dark when trying to lock or unlock the door, it’s pretty annoying. You can take the power key out of the keychain but I didn’t wanna do that so was using the torch on my phone to be able to successfully lock and unlock the room every time. The reception area is pretty dark at night. There are automatic lights turning on when you pass but a light that would illuminate everything better and that was on at all times would be nice. Nothing major though.

My stay at this BnB in Matera was overall pleasant, with a few things to note for future guests. The best part of the experience was definitely Silvia, the hostess — she was warm and attentive. From check-in to local recommendations, she was always available and helpful. The room was clean and comfortable, and the location was convenient for exploring the historic Sassi. However, one downside was the noise in the mornings. My room was located right next to the kitchen, where breakfast was prepared and served each day. Starting quite early, I could clearly hear dishes clattering, which made it difficult to sleep in or enjoy a quiet morning. While this might not bother early risers, it’s something to be aware of if you’re looking for a more restful start to your day. A good option for short stays, especially if you’re planning to be up and about early — and if Silvia is your host, you’ll be in caring hands. Early noise in the kitchen next to my room.

Good clean accommodation which is very well located for visiting sights. Staff very helpful in advising on locations to visit and on places to eat dinner . N/A

It was very clean and in a great location. I can’t think of anything.

Central location, steps from the old city. Nice hosts and good breakfast.

We had a car, so the location was very good. The shower was great! The size of the room was comfortable, and the breakfast was outstanding! We liked everything!

Great location, next to the Sassi, walking distance to everything. Breakfast was included, but not of good quality.

Great location, super clean and the breakfast was great. The staff was super friendly The tourist tax should be included in the total price of the accommodation

The location is superb - just on the edge of the old town and all the sights. The bed is extremely comfortable with good linen and pillows. Immaculate bathroom, good shower - couldn't fault the cleanliness throughout. Nice breakfast area with 4/5 tables - breakfast starts at 8.30am - it was a good, friendly place to swap tips and experiences with other travellers if you wished. The host offered some really good sightseeing advice and recommendations. Excellent pre-arrival communication from the hosts explaining the coded entry to the block, and recommending a convenient car park close by (10 euros per day). The point of arrival/entry is not at all appealing. It's like the entry to a commercial block, but once you're on the first floor and entered the B&B space, the "feel" of the place is entirely different, and very comfortable.

Location was excellent, breakfast was great and staff was very helpful.

The breakfast was very good with a variety to choose. The location was excellent, walking distance to the old town and cafes and tour operators. The owners were very hospitable and gave friendly service. The street noise at night.

Very easy to find, parkings in proximity. Nice room, good size for a family, very clean including the bathroom. Good breakfast with local specialties. The personnel is very nice. Instructions to arrive are perfect.

This was an excellent value. If you will be out exploring Matera most of the day and just need a quiet, clean, air-conditioned place to sleep and have breakfast then it’s perfect. The location is ideal if you’re arriving by bus or train with luggage and plan to spend most of your time exploring the caves. The “local” streets nearby had better restaurants than those in the caves. Breakfast started at 8:30 which is a bit late if you want to get out sightseeing before the heat kicks in.

Had 3 night stay and the room was a good size. Bathroom was clean and great water pressure. Very handy to lots of restaurants and cafes. Needed at least 3 days to fully look around this unique town. Nothing

Perfect hosts who were lovely and incredibly helpful. Great location - easy to access and just a few steps to the glorious Sassi Caveoso. Very comfortable, clean, quiet room. It was modern and nicely furnished. Delicious breakfast. Exceeded our expectations. We liked everything
