Piazza Duomo, highest point of Matera's Sassi district
This meticulously restored aristocratic palazzo offers refined luxury at the highest point of Matera’s historic center, providing breathtaking views over the ancient cave dwellings. As the former residence of the Counts of Gattini, the property combines authentic noble heritage with sophisticated modern comforts. Its prime location adjacent to the Cathedral offers unparalleled access to Matera’s cultural treasures, while the subterranean spa—built within ancient water cisterns—provides a unique wellness experience deeply connected to the city’s remarkable history and architecture.
Palazzo Gattini masterfully balances its aristocratic heritage with contemporary elegance. The restored limestone façade gives way to interior spaces where vaulted ceilings, tufa stone walls, and original architectural details create an authentic sense of place. Guest rooms feature a sophisticated neutral palette that highlights the building’s historic bones, with bespoke furnishings, luxury linens, and modern technology thoughtfully integrated throughout.
The dramatic spa showcases ancient water collection systems and stone arches, creating an atmospheric retreat beneath the palazzo. From the spectacular rooftop terrace—offering panoramic views over Matera’s limestone landscape—to the intimate stone-walled bar, the property creates a perfect synthesis of historical reverence and modern sophistication.
