Take a trip back in time and enjoy the stay of a lifetime at Moyseion Matera! Not just a hotel; this is a living museum and a true cultural experience. My host, David, greeted me on the night I arrived with a symposium: a delightful paleo feast of local fruits and wine accompanied by an entourage of musicians and dancers. And it was like that every night! Each day I took a swim in the dreamlike subterranean Roman thermal baths. The water was perfect! My room had all the modern amenities (climate control, rainfall shower) tucked away to maintain the visual authenticity of a historic dwelling. They spared no detail - ancient pottery and furniture replicas, lights flickering like torches... they even gave me a tunic to wear to each night's festivities. What can I say? I stayed an extra day. Bravo!
