Where to stay in Leganes
Leganés is a well-connected town just south of Madrid, so staying near the town centre puts you close to La Despensa de Madrid and easy metro access to the capital. Try Centro for a convenient base, or look at options along Avenida de España if you want to be close to the main commercial and market area.
If you prefer more choice in hotels, staying just across the border in southern Madrid and hopping the metro into Leganés is a practical option too, especially for a day visit to the market.
