Where to stay in Cocentaina
Cocentaina is a small town, so accommodation options are limited but perfectly placed for the medieval market. Staying in Town Centre puts you within easy walking distance of the festivities and the old quarter where most of the action takes place.
If you prefer a bit more comfort or choice, the nearby city of Alcoy is just a few kilometres away and well worth considering as a base. Alcoy City Centre has several hotels and good transport links back into Cocentaina for the market days.
