Where to stay in Santa Marta de Tormes
Santa Marta de Tormes sits right on the edge of Salamanca, so staying in town centre keeps you close to the local markets while giving you easy access to the wider city. Many visitors also choose to base themselves just across the river in Salamanca city centre, where the choice of accommodation is much broader and the commute to Santa Marta is short.
If you prefer to stay local, look for hotels or guesthouses along the main road through town, where you can reach the markets on foot and explore the area at your own pace.
