Description
The B&B Villa Fortezza is located in the center of Ascoli Piceno, a city in the Marche region, which offers a generous combination of mountains and sea. Nestled between the Sibillini Mountains and the Adriatic Riviera, this area is perfect for nature lovers and scenic beauty. The rooms at B&B Villa Fortezza are bright and offer views of the garden and the city.
With oak floors, the rooms are enhanced by unique furnishings that reflect their names: Pop, Tiffany, City, and Space. To ensure maximum comfort during the summer, the rooms are equipped with fans or air conditioning. Wi-Fi internet connection is free, and the bathrooms are brand new, equipped with a hairdryer and towel set.
The Antique Rooms are an exclusive addition to our Bed and Breakfast. These rooms have been built according to the principles of bio-construction, with breathable clay walls, heated floors, wooden and terracotta ceilings, and cork-insulated roofs. The natural lighting and exclusive interior design create a unique comfort experience. All rooms offer an incomparable view of the historic center of Ascoli Piceno and the surrounding hills.
The Antique Rooms include three rooms, each dedicated to a female figure linked to the ancient traditions and legends of the Piceni. Cupra, Ancaria, and Sibilla will welcome you to this place located within an ancient sacred area, probably the oldest in terms of rituals and Piceni settlements.

I had the privilege of being the founder and manager of the cultural association Incontri and the summer company Incontri d'estate in Ascoli Piceno, which was active from 1989 to 1999. During this period, we offered a unique experience in the fields of cuisine, art, music, and entertainment. Additionally, from 1991 to 1996, I successfully managed two shelters, a restaurant, and a bar in the beautiful ski resort of Monte Piselli, Teramo. Afterwards, I decided to explore other fascinating destinations around the world..In 2000, I inaugurated the B&B Villa Fortezza, situated in the family home. In 2016, thanks to the tireless work of Federica Di Donato, we completed the restoration of Villa Fortezza Antique Rooms, located just 40 meters away from Villa Fortezza. I am delighted to offer an unforgettable experience to our guests. Welcome! Salvatore.

Area city center
The Villa Fortezza B&B is located within the picturesque Annunziata park in Ascoli Piceno's historic center. This privileged position allows you to experience the medieval atmosphere of Ascoli's walls while enjoying the tranquility of the surrounding countryside. In just a 10-minute walk, you can reach the renowned Piazza del Popolo, the vibrant heart of the city. Additionally, from Villa Fortezza, you can take a pleasant stroll to the Castellano river and, during the summer, take a dip in its cool waters to refresh yourself. There's nothing more to say except that Villa Fortezza is a true paradise.

Our stay was truly exceptional, and we honestly couldn’t have asked for a more wonderful place or a lovelier host. The location was perfect, the house was immaculate, and every corner had a unique charm and character that made the experience feel truly special.
What we loved most was the extraordinary attention to detail. Every object, piece of furniture, and little decorative element felt as though it had been thoughtfully curated for an art exhibition, each with its own story and place. The house felt less like a place to stay and more like stepping into someone’s beautiful, personal world, filled with soul, warmth, and authenticity.
And then there was our host, Mateo, without a doubt the sweetest, warmest, and most genuinely welcoming person we have encountered throughout all our travels. His kindness and hospitality made us feel less like guests and more like friends being welcomed into a home.
We are so grateful to have discovered this special place. It is rare to find somewhere that combines such a wonderful location, impeccable cleanliness, distinctive character, and such heartfelt hospitality. We will remember our stay with great affection and would return in a heartbeat. Thank you, Mateo, for making our time here so memorable and for sharing such a beautiful home with us. Pelin & Bahadır.

Beautiful house, top location. Ascoli is worth not only a visit but a longer stay. In a couple of years, once the post-earthquake construction sites are closed, it will be even more beautiful. The most photographed square is Piazza del Popolo, but there are several squares that deserve a stop and that would make any other, more touristed city famous. We appreciated the courtesy of Salvatore and Omar. Villa Fortezza will remain a point of reference for us.

Always a paradise. Everything there is perfect. The town of Ascoli is increasingly beautiful and very charming. Superb region, superb beaches, superb villages and extraordinary landscapes. We will return and we will return again, of course to this magnificent Villa Fortezza. Thanks to Salvatore, Fede and Omar.
