The aspects that make a stay in our hotel very unique and pleasant can be identified in the decennial tradition of attention to guests, in courtesy of Anna Maria and her passion for this work and for these territories,the friendliness and helpfulness of Alberto, in culinary passion handed down from grandmother to mother, from Enrica to Anna,  and now from Anna to Pierpaola and Anna Maria.

The quality of our hotel, first of all, are the people.

Awards

We are proud and we want to emphasize that we were rewarded by Legambiente Turismo for the "Enhancement of organic gastronomy and traditional". This award recognized the years of attention and interest, research and testing of the products of our territory, and for the care that we have always had in preserving the local gastronomic tradition, a tradition that we make it current with the development of new recipes.

We have participated in the project Riviera del Conero engaging in small but significant behaviors oriented to the preservation of our environment.

We responsibly made a commitment to ensure the safe preparation of meals for people with celiac disease, following the training and the indication of the Italian Celiac Association.

Thanks largely to the belief of Pierpaola which for years has made the decision to become vegetarian, we have enriched our culinary skills and we guarantee excellent vegetarian menus.

Anna took over the business when his parents became elderly. He continued to work with conviction and courage, flanked by his daughters. Mainly from Anna Maria and when required by Pierpaola.

Anna's dream was to do the fashion designer, and in fact he started his work as a seamstress, but when parents inaugurated the hotel, which was  open all year, Anna had to put aside their dreams to devote full-time himself to the work of family. Over the years Anna has been passionate in his work. So manage the hotel has become the true profession of Anna

Now supervising the activities of the kitchen and supports Anna Maria that she has become the natural heir of Anna in the management of the hotel.

In 2014 he received the recognition of the Chamber of Commerce of Ancona for the professionalism shown in fifty years. Was given to 'the Eagle Diamond' Masters of Commerce.

The mayor and councilors of the Municipality of Numana wanted to celebrate this award to Anna Cantarini together with the whole family Pierucci.

The kitchen and the fish

Anna has inherited from her mother the culinary tradition. The specialty of Anna are without a doubt the fish dishes, food that in the history of the family has always played a central role.

For example, the sea bream to the stew, monkfish tomatoes and potatoes, mussels all'anconetana, the spaghetti with shrimp just to name a few.

The vegetarian menus

When you manage to build a dinner that is also appreciated by the 'omnivores', without making them regret the fish or meat, it means that you have found the right recipe in terms of taste and substance.

Pierpaola over the years has accumulated vegetarian recipes discovered and adapted from those of other cooks or that has built and tested directly.

Some recipes are for example the vegetable pie with tomato sauce and basil, spinach and ricotta flan with cheese fondue, 'trenne alla carbonara' vegetarian with artichoke, the squid with chickpeas and sun-dried tomatoes, 'fusilli al pesto' with eggplant and tomatoes 'datterini'.

When Pierpaola is present in the hotel is directly involved in the cuisine and vegetarian menus. When she lives in Ferrara is consulted by Anna and Anna Maria with regard to vegetarian menus.

The commitment is to assure the availability of gluten-free foods, while maintaining the flavor and the taste that we get with all the other food preparations.

To achieve this requires a careful evaluation of the gluten-free products that we offer and of the raw materials that we use in the kitchen.

The years of accumulated experience we have served to address this commitment in the best way.

The heart and soul of the hotel. His passion, helpfulness and courtesy will amaze you.

Anna Maria grew up in the hotel. Even as a child helped serve at the tables and rearrange the rooms. In the kitchen did not help, because the kitchen was the reign of his grandmother and could not enter. Although absorbed by family still managed to cultivate their passions such as journalism, becoming a publicist, and above all languages, and in particular the Arabic language in which she graduated at the University 'Ca Foscari' of Venice.

Of course the hotel is not his only interest.  He would like to use what he learned at the university and arrange trips to Arab countries and has a dream: a house by the sea in Sicily or maybe in Egypt or Morocco.

Pierpaola recalls that when he was in elementary school was the only one in its class not happy to return home at the end of the school. Even if she was hungry she was returning slowly because he knew what he had to do in the hotel.  She was a very shy child.  She was helping the grandparents doing the waitress at the tables. In those days, the customers were people involved in building development of the 70s. Pierpaola still remembers those heavy dishes and those great men who joked with her in a loud voice, while he wanted to disappear under the tables.

That experience has perhaps influenced the choices of Pierpaola: Sociologist, PhD, observe the people and the way they interact has remained one of his characteristic trait.

The best memories of childhood are linked to  grandmother Enrica and the women who worked in the kitchen,  and his grandfather Lello.  She remembers the carpenter's table and tools that Lello used to make small repairs and to build the hives for his bees.

Pierpaola left Marcelli moved to Ferrara where she lives with her husband. But every summer you can find it at the hotel, if you're lucky, and then you can taste the dishes that are created during the winter.

Vegetarian like her husband, is the family counselor for vegetarian menus.

Want to know something about Marcelli and its inhabitants? Shops, restaurants and various events? Alberto can probably help you. More if you have time and want to hear he can tell you a lot about its history, which is a bit the history of these lands.

Alberto was born on the estate of Count Leopardi: the father cultivated the lands of the Count as a sharecropper. Alberto's family was very poor, so much that they had only one pair of shoes and they were five brothers. In the morning, the first brother who got up put the shoes, the others went barefoot.

The most touching and also funny to hear him tell it, when still baby, he entered secretly into the room where they were setting the table of the count. Alberto came near to the table and lifted the lid of the large serving dish. With great joy he discovered that hid a roast chicken. Without hesitation he took the chicken and ran. Then he divided the chicken with his older brother who has eaten it almost everything. When he returned home he found his father very angry and frightened, he was told he was gone a chicken and that was the little Alberto to take it. Alberto tried to deny until his father told him how they had discovered that he had stolen the roast chicken. They had seen on the polished floor of the dining room the unmistakable imprints of her little bare feet.

You can find Albert sitting in front of the hotel or in the TV room. You can take advantage of the his kindness and availability.
