In the heart of Matera’s UNESCO World Heritage site, Hotel Sant’Angelo offers a unique hospitality experience that blends contemporary elegance with historical authenticity. The property unfolds in two distinct yet complementary souls: Sant’Angelo and Le Residenze.
Overlooking the iconic Piazza San Pietro Caveoso, Sant’Angelo is a “hotel diffuso”—a scattered hotel composed of ancient cave dwellings and carefully restored historic buildings. Some rooms are carved directly into the rock, while others sit within noble residences, all offering a refined blend of comfort and heritage.
Now a proud member of the Small Luxury Hotels of the World, Sant’Angelo ensures a high standard of hospitality, personalized service, and architectural beauty.
The on-site Regia Corte restaurant enhances the experience with reimagined Lucanian dishes made from seasonal, local ingredients—served either inside a captivating stone dining room or on a terrace with sweeping views of the Sassi.
Formerly known as La Casa di Lucio, Le Residenze represent the more intimate, authentic side of the Sant’Angelo experience. Located within a restored 17th-century residence, these seven unique rooms are carved into the stone, preserving original cave features like arched ceilings and limestone textures.
Each unit offers a private entrance, and some include a kitchenette, making them ideal for guests seeking independence and immersion in Matera’s ancient soul.
Breakfast is served at the main Sant’Angelo location, and guests of Le Residenze are also welcome to dine at Regia Corte, enjoying the same elegance and flavor as the main hotel.
Whether you choose the refined charm of Sant’Angelo or the raw, romantic appeal of Le Residenze, your stay will be unforgettable—steeped in the millennia-old spirit of Matera. Both spaces offer comfort, history, and a deep sense of place.
