Ancona Falconara Airport: where to stay, areas and recommended hotels

Ancona-Falconara airport has Castelferretti station 3 minutes' walk from the terminal, with trains to Ancona Centrale in 20 minutes: for those who only need to reach the city, that's the quickest option. Those who build their stay around the Conero, instead, find in Sirolo and Numana, 28-30 minutes by car or taxi, the finest beaches of the Marche coast and the liveliest towns in the evening. Further away, inland towards Senigallia, a few farmhouses offer a countryside base for those staying more than one night and not having to leave at dawn.

Numana

Nearby town · About 30 km from the terminal, 28 minutes by car or taxi; there's no direct bus from the airport.

Best for: For those who want to stay on the Conero beach and don't have a dawn flight.

Pros

A few steps from the beach, with the resort's free bus to Marcelli and the centre of Numana
Two pools and a kids club, handy with children

Cons

In summer the coastal traffic on the seafront road extends the transfer
Out of season the resort cuts back services: worth checking it is open before booking
