Those who travel through the low valley of Metauro are surrounded by a group of small hilltop towns that dominate the valley: Montemaggiore al Metauro, S. George, Piagge, Orciano, Mondavio, Barchi, Sant'Ippolito, Sorbolongo, Reforzate, on the one hand and Saltara, Serrungarina, Montefelcino, Montemontanaro on the other. They were built in Roman times, when those who lived there led independent lives and the village squares, patron saint churches, towers and forts were important meeting points for peasants, artisans and merchants from afar. There are many museums where locals are looking to collect and preserve memories from their past. The museums are of different sizes and types; those who will visit them will find themselves putting together the complex puzzle that is the history of the area of Metauro. This spa hotel is situated in the centre of Montemaggiore, close to various nightlife venues. Guests will find restaurants and a tourist information centre in the nearby village of Fano, just 10 minutes' drive away. Links to public transport can be found just a few metres from the hotel and the nearest bus station is in Calcinelli, 2 km away.
