For dining, the hotel itself has Regiacorte, a restaurant with local gastronomy, and Più Sud, an award-winning pizzeria. Nearby, you'll find RestaurantVitantonio Lombardo just 3 meters away and Bella Vista Matera at 6 meters. Osteria al Casale is also right at the hotel, while Good Service Caffe' di Vendola Domenico & C is 300 meters out, Monkey Drink House 350 meters, and L'Arco 450 meters. These spots offer a range of local flavors within a short stroll.
You are right in the heart of the Sassi, Matera's ancient cave district, with the Church of Saint Mary of Idris just a 1-minute walk away and the Sasso Caveoso 2 minutes from the door. The area is a maze of stone alleys, stairways, and courtyards, with the Cathedral Basilica and Belvedere di Piazza Giovanni Pascoli both within a 3-minute stroll. The hotel's own Regiacorte restaurant and Più Sud pizzeria sit right here, and nearby you'll find Bella Vista Matera and Osteria al Casale. It's a quiet, historic neighborhood, yet the main sights and viewpoints are all close on foot.
From Bari Karol Wojtyla Airport, take a direct shuttle bus to Matera, then a short taxi or ride-hailing trip to the hotel. From Matera Centrale Train Station, the hotel is about 1.2 km away, so a taxi or ride-hailing service is the easiest option. The hotel is in a restricted-traffic zone, so you cannot drive right up to it; use the partner Sant’Isidoro Parking and walk the short distance. A pre-booked private transfer from the airport or station is also a smooth choice. The nearest bus stop is on Via Lucana, about a 12-minute walk from the hotel.
In the evening, the Sassi's maze of alleys and stairways is yours to explore, with the Church of Saint Mary of Idris just a 1-minute walk and the Sasso Caveoso 2 minutes away. For dinner, the hotel's Regiacorte restaurant and Più Sud pizzeria are right there, and nearby you'll find Bella Vista Matera and Osteria al Casale. After a meal, a 3-minute stroll brings you to Belvedere di Piazza Giovanni Pascoli for a view over the city lights. You can also book the Matera by Night tour, which includes entrance to a Cave House and Rock Church, to see the historic center after dark.
Yes, Sant'Angelo Luxury Resort is an excellent base for exploring Matera. The Sassi cave dwellings, the city's iconic heart, are right at your doorstep, with the Church of Saint Mary of Idris just a 1-minute walk away. Noha House, the Cave House, and Sasso Caveoso are all within a 2-minute walk, and the Cathedral Basilica is also just 2 minutes away. For a slightly longer stroll, Belvedere di Piazza Giovanni Pascoli is 3 minutes away, and the Church of Saint Peter 'Barisano' and Castle Park are each a 6-minute walk. This puts you in the center of the historic area, so you can easily explore on foot. For sights further out, like the Murgia Park, you can take a short taxi or ride-hailing trip from the hotel.
