Where to stay in Chinchón
Chinchón is a small town, so staying central puts you within easy walking distance of everything. The area around the Plaza Mayor is your best bet, Plaza Mayor, where you'll be right on the doorstep of the main square and its market activity.
For a more characterful stay, the Parador de Chinchón is a well-known option set in a 17th-century convent, and worth considering if you want something a little special. Wherever you stay, the town is compact enough that nothing is ever far.

Street markets in Chinchón
The Chinchón Medieval Market brings a historical atmosphere to the town's streets, with stalls dedicated to handicrafts, prepared foods, and freshly baked bread and pastries. It is one of the more characterful markets in the Community of Madrid, where artisan producers sell directly alongside food vendors.
The From the Land of Madrid to Your Plate Market takes a different approach, focusing on fresh fruit, fresh vegetables, and organic produce sourced locally from Madrid's agricultural producers. Prepared foods are also available, making it a practical stop for anyone wanting to pick up a ready-made lunch alongside their weekly shop. If organic and eco produce is a priority, this is the market to plan your visit around.
Both markets run weekly, so checking the specific day for each before travelling is worthwhile. For more markets in the surrounding area, the nearby towns of Aranjuez and Arganda del Rey also host regular street markets within easy reach of Chinchón. The official Chinchón tourism website at turismochinchon.es provides up-to-date local event and market information.
