Where to stay in Arcos de la Frontera
Staying in the old town puts you closest to the weekly market and lets you explore Arcos on foot. Casco Antiguo is the obvious base, and the clifftop Parador de Arcos de la Frontera is a classic option if you want a memorable stay with views to match.
For something a little more intimate, several small boutique guesthouses sit within easy walking distance of the market streets. The La Casa Grande Arcos de la Frontera is a well-regarded choice right in the heart of the old quarter.
