This is an historic old house, not easy to find at first, but a delight once we got the 'lay of the land'. The owner and staff are very hospitable and friendly. Breakfast included some homemade goodies and good coffee. The B&B is not too difficult a walk to Fermo's Piazza - city center - which includes several museums, restaurants, shops. Fermo is a surprising little town with oodles of history, winding cobblestone streets, hills and charm. We happened to be there at the time of an Octoberfest celebration with their sister city and met other guests at the B&B that were there from Germany.

Can't think of anything to complain about. If you love history and beautiful architecture, this is the perfect place for you!

Antica Biblioteca, Fermo, Le Marche. Oct.18th, 2022 This B&B is managed by Matteo, a descendant of the family owning the Palazzo. Our room was on the ground floor, breakfast was served on the piano nobile. Stairs not a problem. This B&B is located among the winding medieval streets of historic Fermo. The day rooms we passed through, are are appointed with historic family photographs, cultural items and of course the library. We enjoyed learning about the family’s ancestors and finding a resemblance between Matteo and his grandfather’s portrait. Room: Queen bed, plenty of room to stretch out, bath is huge with a decorative marble tub. Breakfast is very good! Parking: a pass explained by Matteo, allows you to park on the nearby streets. Attractions: The Roman Cistern (Cisterne Romane) is unique to the city, this is an enormous reservoir of 30 barrel- vaulted rooms, built under Augustus in AD 41-61, to supply the town and ships sailing from its port. Tours are arranged through the information office in Piazza del Popolo. Some of the the cisterns were used used by Fermo’s water company until 1982 and others served as bomb shelters during WWII. This is an amazing place! Also the Pinacoteca Civica is worth a visit for the “Adoration of the Shepherds” painted by Rubens in 1608. In the evening Fermo has good flood lights throughout its historic quarter illumiating for example, Torre Matteucci. Capolinea Ristorante is very good for dinner. For dessert their chocolate soufflé with pistachio heart is outstanding!

Michele and the ladies were excellent hosts, they provided us with an earlier check-in than planned, made us feel welcome, helped us with our questions. Although we were the only guests during our one-night stay, they provided us with a larger-than-normal breakfast. The building is absolutely beautiful, every space you walk through is worth staying long and enjoying it! All is kept clean and in shape, done with good taste and style. Highly recommended! Parking in the steep and narrow streets is not easy, but the hosts provide you with a permit to park for free in zone 8.

A very impressive building in the centre of the old town. Room was very comfortable and warm and we were provided with a very typical Italian breakfast and excellent coffee in a beautiful breakfast room. Host was very helpful and provided a parking permit so we could park for free outside in the very narrow street!
