Where to stay in Galdar

Gáldar is a small town, so your best bet is to stay in the town centre, where you can walk to the weekly market without any hassle. Town Centre puts you close to the main square and the surrounding streets where the market takes place.

If you prefer more options or a beachside base, the nearby resort town of Las Palmas de Gran Canaria is just a short drive away and has plenty of accommodation to choose from. Las Palmas de Gran Canaria works well if you want to combine the market with a broader visit to the island.
