Description
“Ponticello a San Potito” is a friendly and charming B&B full of history, located in the high and noble part of the ancient city, the medieval Civita, a few steps away from the beautiful Cathedral, the Musma and Casa Noha.

The property was converted from an old premises for the production of cheese (“caciolaio”), it is the perfect combination of old and new. A mix of historical elements within a space purposely leftas its origin, without interventions that could have altered the structure, that blend with the latest technology available to guests.

The B&B is in an exclusive and dominant position, ideal for visiting the historic centre and the ancient city: the two Rioni Sassi and their eighteenth century crown.

Its location is also convenient to access all the services you might need: Banks, Tourist information centres, Spas, Shops, Restaurants, Pizzerie, Cinema, Hairdressers etc..

The B&B is, together with the property inhabited by your hosts (which is accessed by a little bridge), the extreme wing on Via San Potito of the Conti Gattini’s Palazzo, today a Luxury hotel.

A “little bridge” under which Jesus transited with the cross, amongst a noisy crowd, in the reconstruction by Mel Gibson in “The Passion” (2003).

Here you will experience the magic of the Sassi di Matera, immersed in the history of the city and, surrounded by its many sights, you will share the experience of contemporary Matera as “cultural visitors”, in contact with its cosmopolitan community.

Your hosts will be at your disposal to provide information and addresses for a pleasant stay in Matera.

Very unique structure that allows you to experience staying in a stone. The location is excellent, practically in Piazza Duomo and therefore in a very central position to visit both the stones. Amabile Trilli and her husband have always been very kind and full of advice on what to visit.

Staying in Matera was very nice and relaxing. The B&B Ponticello a San Potito is located in the city center, just a few steps away from all necessities: restaurants, bars, and tourist attractions. The street is very quiet in the evening, no noise, but crowded during the day as it is a passage for many tourist itineraries. The room is very spacious, with impeccable cleanliness. We had at our disposal a kettle, a coffee machine, and various snacks (yogurt, biscuits, and even fresh figs in the fridge). Trilli was very kind, a unique person. She provided us with various information on where to park, what to do, what to see, where to eat, and how to get around. Anything we needed, we just had to ask her. I really hope to come back.

The availability and professionalism of the manager is impeccable. Spacious, cozy room with all the comforts, renovated with taste, competence, and attention. Enviable location. 8 for breakfast because you have to move to external structures, but it's an insignificant detail. If I return to Matera, it will be the first choice. Thank you, Mrs. Amabile.

The Ponticello in San Potito is located in a wonderful position, in the heart of Civitas behind the Cathedral, between the Sasso Barisano and the Sasso Caveoso. A great starting point for discovering the magical Matera. The room is carved inside a renovated cave house in an excellent and functional way. Clean and welcoming, it is equipped with every comfort while respecting the origins that can be felt in every corner of the room. The owners are fantastic: Mrs. Amabile and Mr. Lorenzo. Thanks to their valuable advice, we managed to discover the history, typical products, and enogastronomic culture of this magnificent city. Talking to them, you can understand how much they love their city. A special thanks to Mrs. Amabile for the daily "cuddles" she reserved for us. I hope to be able to come back soon!

The B&B Ponticello a San Potito is located in an excellent position. Behind the Cathedral, it allows you to reach the heart of both Sasso Caveoso and Sasso Barisano in a few minutes. The room, beautiful, clean, comfortable, and functional, is located inside a renovated cave house with all modern comforts while preserving its history and original charm. Nothing is really missing. A special thanks to Mrs. Amabile and her husband Lorenzo, wonderful hosts who have conveyed all their love for Matera by giving us very useful information and advice. Absolutely the added value of an extraordinary stay.

In the B&B there is also a folder containing suggestions and tips on places to visit and restaurants, great idea! The B&B is in the heart of the Sassi, very clean and well cared for.

Excellent structure, located in the center of Matera, a few steps from the cathedral. New, well-kept and welcoming environment, but even more so the hospitality and attention of the managers towards the guests is truly exquisite.

Siamo stati solo una notte in questo piccolo sasso ma ci torneremo appena possibile! La signora amabile trilli, gentilissima e disponibilissima, ci ha riservato un'accoglienza impeccabile, illustrandoci le principali attrazioni di Matera. La posizione del B&B è ottima per poter visitare la città. In più la camera è veramente suggestiva, comoda spaziosa e curata nel dettaglio. Complimenti per il vostro lavoro. Consigliatissimo.

Struttura nuova e di design, non manca veramente nulla, tutto curato nel dettaglio sia in camera che nel piccolo ma funzionale bagno, si nota la mano di un architetto di ottimo gusto. Materasso da sogni d'oro. Pulizia ineccepibile. Camera ideale per 2 max 3 persone (noi eravamo 2 adulti+1bimba in terzo letto), si trova in pieno centro, ricavata in un sasso rivisitato e reso molto ospitale e silenzioso, comodo per le visite guidate e i locali del centro. I proprietari gentilissimi e disponibili sia di persona che tramite tel/wa, davvero due persone squisite. Ho dato voto appena sufficiente alla colazione perché questa non è servita dai proprietari (non vi è materialmente lo spazio per una zona cucina) ma in un bar poco distante che può servirvi qualunque cosa da bere (succhi, caffè, cappuccini) ma per il resto la scelta è d'obbligo sulle brioche, a nostro avviso troppo dolci e pesanti, soprattutto se poi ci si deve incamminare per i gradini dell'incantevole Matera. Forse una scelta più ampia sarebbe da considerare. Malgrado ciò mi sento di consigliarlo a chiunque, come sto già facendo mentre racconto la nostra tappa a Matera ai nostri amici.

Siamo stati a Matera nel weekend di Pasquetta e questa bella struttura ha reso il nostro soggiorno ancora più magico in una città mozzafiato. Il bed è proprio accanto al Duomo nella Civita, la posizione permette di godersi Matera a 360 gradi. Il luogo è un sasso ristrutturato in maniera deliziosa, con tutti i servizi. La signora Amabile ci ha assistito prima e durante in soggiorno senza mai invadere la nostra privacy ma pronta ad ogni nostra chiamata. Consigliatissimo.

Con la mia famiglia, da tanto desideravamo visitare Matera e non avremmo potuto scegliere struttura migliore. A due passi dal Duomo, nel cuore del Sasso Caveoso, la stanza è nuovissima ma caratteristica, accogliente, curata nei minimi dettagli e dotata di ogni confort. siamo stati benissimo e la signora Amabile è una persona deliziosa che ha saputo consigliarci al meglio. il tutto per un soggiorno indimenticabile. Grazie di tutto. Consigliatissimo.

B&B davvero a due passi da Piazza Duomo: la posizione è favolosa, nel cuore dei Sassi di Matera, perfetta per visitare la città, il centro storico e tutte le attrazioni che offre una città splendida come Matera. La struttura è pulitissima, comoda, silenziosa ed accogliente. È ottenuta all'interno di un "Sasso", con una camera ricavata in una vecchia grotta sembra. Il B&B è nuovissimo, sembra aperto da un paio di mesi, e i lavori di ristrutturazione (come insegnano i proprietari) sono stati fatti ad arte, per lasciare invariata la struttura originaria. All'interno è presente il "moderno" attraverso una buona connessione wi-fi, un impianto audio in filodiffusione bluetooth, la TV LED con canali satellitari HD. Davvero si hanno tutti i confort, ci si sente a casa! Apprezzatissima la macchina da caffè Nespresso con cialde a disposizione gratuitamente, e il bollitore per una buona tisana (anche questa, offerta in kit di cortesia) prima di andare a letto. Molto carina la possibilità di regolare le luci della stanza, per creare un ambiente rilassato all'occasione. Aria condizionata è un toccasana per le calde giornate che abbiamo trovato. Il bagno, nonostante non sembri molto grande, in realtà ha tutto il necessario (inclusa una doccia walk-in molto grande) : sinceramente, in certi hotel è molto peggio nonostante sia più spazioso. La colazione viene offerta in un bar a poche centinaia di metri (in pieno centro) : sinceramente, la preferisco rispetto ai cibi preconfezionati che si trovano in altri B&B, anche perché personalmente il buon cappuccino di un bar è un toccasana per cominciare una bella giornata. Un ringraziamento particolare a Amabile e Lorenzo, che ci hanno accolto come persone di famiglia, indicandoci e spiegandoci punto per punto come sfruttare al meglio i nostri due giorni a Matera, incluse molte indicazioni turistiche e storiche sulla città (oltre ovviamente ad alcune dritte per godere al meglio della festa patronale del 2 luglio a Matera). Infine, il rapporto qualità/prezzo è assolutamente uno dei migliori! Abbiamo trascorso giorni bellissimi, in grande relax; ci ritorneremo volentieri e consigliamo vivamente a tutti di soggiornare in questa meravigliosa struttura. Grazie ancora!
