Ussita Hotels
Looking for a hotel in Ussita, a municipality in the province of Macerata, in the Marche region? Ussita hotels are fewer today: the 2016 earthquake hit the hotels of Frontignano and Santa Scolastica. Frontignano is where the ski lifts start. The municipality takes its name from the Ussita stream; the origin of the place name is uncertain, and one theory links it to the Latin "exitus", meaning "exit", for its position as a passage between the Apennine peaks.
The municipality's hotel-restaurants include the Crystal, now at Crystal Chalet. Alongside this page, refuges, a campsite, B&Bs and camper van stopovers are gathered on the page about where to stay in Ussita.

Ussita Hotels: The Best Areas
The choice depends mainly on where you want to stay. There are three hotel areas, but after the earthquake it is worth checking the status of each property.
Fluminata is the municipal seat, on the valley floor.
Frontignano is a few kilometers from the center of Ussita and lies within the Sibillini National Park in the Sibillini Mountains. At the Hotel Felycita, at about 1,350 m above sea level at the point where the lifts start, demolition work began in April 2024 ahead of a complete rebuild: before booking, check whether it has reopened. This is the area for skiers.
Santa Scolastica was home to Hotel Monte Bove, which suspended its business after the 2016 earthquake and is unfit for use.
Ussita Hotels: Map of Accommodations
The map places each hotel in relation to Fluminata, Santa Scolastica and Frontignano. It helps gauge the distance from the Frontignano lifts, which are a few kilometers from the center of Ussita.
The other properties on the where-to-stay page, such as refuges, the campsite and camper areas, have their own pages.
Ussita Hotels: How to Choose
Skiers should look at Frontignano, because the lifts are close by, but since the earthquake there are few beds on site. Those who prefer to stay lower down, in town, can look at the properties on the valley floor, first checking that they are open. For details on each hotel, see the pages for the individual properties.
Before booking, check the status of each property. The historic building of Hotel Crystal, for example, is awaiting reconstruction, while the business continues at Crystal Chalet.
If the hotels do not fit, there are other options. These include Camping Colorito and B&B La finestra sui monti. Nearby towns also have hotels.
