"It’s hidden in plain sight: Le Marche, to the east of Tuscany and north of Rome, attracts just a fraction of its neighbors’ tourism traffic. And it’s not for lack of appeal. Among Italians it’s known for having a little bit of everything, from rolling hills to dramatic mountains to idyllic beaches, from vineyards to medieval villages. In the foothills of the Sibillini Mountains, with an elevated view of much of the above, you’ll find Hotel Leone, an eight-room luxury boutique hotel that gathers together an astonishing variety of the things that make Italy special, all under one roof." - Tablet Hotels
