Where to stay in Ubeda
Úbeda's historic centre puts you closest to the Ágora Market and the city's remarkable Renaissance architecture, so staying within the old town is the smart choice. The Parador de Úbeda sits right on the Plaza Vázquez de Molina and is genuinely worth it if your budget stretches, while Hotel Palacio de Úbeda offers a more affordable stay in a restored mansion a short walk away.
If you prefer a bit more flexibility, look for accommodation around Centro Histórico and you can reach the market and the main sights on foot without any fuss.
