Where to stay in Macael
Macael is a small town, so accommodation options are limited locally. Your best bet is to stay in Town Centre where you can easily walk to the weekly market, or look at nearby Olula del Río for a slightly wider choice of places to sleep.
If you prefer more comfort and don't mind a short drive, the larger town of Huércal-Overa has more hotels and is well connected to the area. Booking ahead is a good idea, especially on market days when rooms fill up fast.
