Where to stay in Órgiva

Órgiva is a small town, so staying central is the easiest move. Try Town Centre if you want to walk to the Thursday market and local shops without any fuss, or look at Calle Estación for a quieter base that's still close to everything.

If you prefer something with a bit more character, rural guesthouses and cortijos on the edge of town put you right in the Alpujarra landscape. Options like Hotel Taray Botanico offer a comfortable stay with gardens and easy access back into town for market days.
