Salvatierra is a small medieval town, so accommodation options are limited, but staying in the historic centre puts you within easy walking distance of everything. Try Old Town for the most atmospheric base, where you can step out directly into the market streets.
If you prefer a bit more comfort and flexibility, the nearby city of Vitoria-Gasteiz is only around 30 kilometres away and offers a much wider choice of hotels, making it a practical option if you're combining your visit with other stops in Álava.
