Where to stay in Pontevedra
Staying in the old town puts you right in the heart of things, and Casco Vello is your best bet for easy access to the markets on foot. The Parador de Pontevedra is a beautiful option if you want something special, set in a historic pazo right in the centre.
If you prefer something more affordable, there are plenty of guesthouses and hotels just outside the old town near Avenida de Colón, still within easy walking distance of everywhere you need to be.
