Where to stay in Pamplona

Staying in the Casco Antiguo (Old Town) puts you within easy walking distance of Pamplona's main markets and the best of the city's food scene. Casco Antiguo is the obvious base, and the Gran Hotel La Perla on the Plaza del Castillo is a solid splurge if you want something central and well-located.

For a more affordable option, look around the Plaza del Castillo area where you'll find plenty of mid-range hotels and hostels that keep you right in the heart of things. Wherever you stay, aim to be on foot, because the markets here reward wandering.

Municipal markets in Pamplona

Pamplona's four municipal markets are all indoors and run weekly, focused primarily on fresh food. Santo Domingo Market is the most historically significant, with 25 stalls on Calle Mercado selling fresh vegetables, meat, poultry, fish and seafood, cheese and dairy, and bread and pastries. It was mentioned in Hemingway's The Sun Also Rises and remains a reference point for traditional Navarrese food shopping. More information is available on the Pamplona city council website.

The Ensanche Market and II Ensanche Market each have 25 stalls and carry a similar range: fresh fruit, fresh vegetables, meat and poultry, fish and seafood, and cheese and dairy. Both sit in the Ensanche neighbourhood and are convenient for visitors staying in the newer part of the city. The Ensanche Gorriti con Amaya Market is slightly smaller at 20 stalls but stocks the same core categories, giving the Ensanche area three covered market options within close proximity.

Street markets in Pamplona

Pamplona's six weekly street markets are notably varied in character, from artisan food to fashion, antiques, and organic produce. The Basotxoa Local and Artisan Market is the largest street market with 30 stalls, selling handicrafts, organic produce, cheese and dairy, bread and pastries, and fresh vegetables. The Landaben Street Market also has 30 stalls but takes a different direction, concentrating on clothing, handicrafts, footwear, and jewellery, making it more of a general goods market than a food destination.

The Pamplona Christmas Market rounds out the seasonal offer with 30 stalls selling handicrafts, prepared foods, jewellery, and flowers and plants. The Iruña Street Market has 25 stalls with a focus on clothing, footwear, handicrafts, and books. The Pamplona Organic Market specialises in organic produce, fresh vegetables, fresh fruit, bread and pastries, and cheese and dairy, making it the best option for eco-conscious shoppers. The Pamplona Flea Market covers antiques and books and is a good stop for second-hand finds, though its exact stall count is not confirmed.
