Where to stay in Martos
Martos is a small town, so your best bet is to stay close to the historic centre, where you'll be within easy walking distance of the medieval market and the town's hilltop streets. Centro Histórico puts you right in the middle of things and gives you a feel for the town beyond market day.
If you'd prefer a bit more comfort or flexibility, the nearby city of Jaén is only around 20 minutes away and offers a broader choice of accommodation, making it a practical base for exploring the region. City Centre works well if you're combining the market with other stops in the province.
