“Great host, lovely room with fantastic views and amazing breakfast”

We had a lovely big room with a fantastic view. The breakfast was so varied, delicious and far more than we could manage. The best, was Mario the host who was so obliging. Giving advice of what to see in the vicinity and every day we contacted him to ask for a suggestion for dinner. Not only did he recommend three very different restaurants, all of which were wonderful, but he also made the reservations for us. He could not have been more helpful

“Just great! Many thanks.”

The owner, Mario, was a fantastic and attentive host. The room was spacious and nicely furnished with attention to detail. In addition to a great shower, there was a fabulous “spa bath/hot tub” - great after a hot day out walking! Breakfast on the terrace was excellent, with a great variety of home baked savoury and sweet cakes and fresh fruit.

Great location and Mario was amazing host , so helpfull and gave us an amazing experience

“Great view, room a bit disappointing, helpfull host!”

Wonderfull view!! Nice room. Nice host who was very helpfull.

“Wonderful stay, most authentic experience we’ve had in Italy”

We had an absolutely wonderful stay at Alberto Diffuso II Casale. The room was beautiful and exceptionally clean. We were greeted by owner Mario for whom nothing was too much to ask. He went above and beyond to provide a special stay, including hosting a delicious and authentic breakfast each morning. Ginosa is ideally placed for exploring the region with towns like Matera only a short drive.

“A perfect very authentic place close to Matera”

This place was the best accommodation during our travel through Italy. The place itself is located in wonderful Ginosa offering a remarkable view. The rooms are created very personally (pictures, soap, etc). Above all, the owners are super friendly creating a wonderful atmosphere and will help you with everything. If you are going to book at this place - take the breakfast. you will not regret it at all!

We loved our two night stay. The property is in a great location in the old town over looking the ancient caves. Once you get there you are best to leave your car and explore the old town, ravine and caves on your own. Its a great walk without tourists. The locals are friendly and helpful even if they cant speak English. Mario the host was fantastic, as was the homemade breakfast. Close to restaurants. We recommend you contact Mario pre arrival so that you get instructions about driving into the narrow road system around this part of the old town.

“outstanding in all senses from the small details to the outstanding breakfast but ultimately the kindness and care of pu”

Brilliantly restored Albergo Diffuso with unique rooms in the old part town.

Mario was a great host. Breakfast exceptional, all homemade. Wonderful location overlooking the ancient caves. Genuinely authentic.
