Stayed 1 night

A lovely one night stopover in a wonderful B&B in the very interesting city of Matera. Good location at the bottom end of the town. Travelled in by car, so there was obviously the extra charge of parking off-site and subsequent transfer to and from the property - Euro 20 +10+10 = 40 for the overnight stop. Transfers were fine tho. Staff were very welcoming both at reception and check-out the following morning. Quirky room for sure. But well appointed and very comfortable. Quiet. Nice touch of a free small red wine and local(?) walnuts to snack. Breakfast was very good and plentiful with lots of the usual continental-style options, tho more cereal choices of a healthy nature would have been nice. Another nice touch of a gift of local bread on check-out.

Stayed 1 night

Amazing cave room in fabulous location. Lovely, charming and helpful staff, happy to provide tips on food, tours and walks - and a good choice of breakfast. There is an assortment of goodies left in the room for purchase (wine etc), which is very welcoming but a little confusing if you don’t initially realise they aren’t complimentary. And amongst the bonanza it would have been a nice touch and very helpful to have a bottle or two of COMPLIMENTARY water (it may have been there and we may have missed it amongst the treats). The only other slight oddity of the hotel is how reception closes between 12.30pm and 3pm, so if they are kind enough to look after your small bags after check out, be sure to know you need to pick up before they close or after 3pm. There doesn’t seem to be a luggage room so not sure they would even allow bigger bags, like suitcases, so worth checking ahead. We loved the hotel, its position and loved our cave night and slept very well. They also so kindly gifted us a freshly baked loaf of bread when we left. Perfect spot for a perfect couple of days in Matera, in an unforgettable room. Thank you

We absolutely loved our stay of 4 nights at Thymus! Incredibly clean and so cool to stay inside a cave. Breakfast outside while looking at the hills of matera will never be forgotten. Well worth every penny!
