Where to stay in Elche
Staying in the city centre puts you closest to the Cemeika Street Market and within easy reach of Elche's palm groves and old town. Elche City Centre is your best bet for a central base, and the Hotel Huerto del Cura is a well-known option with a lovely garden setting if you want something a bit more special.
If you prefer a quieter spot with easy access, El Pla de Sant Josep is a residential neighbourhood close to the action without being right in the thick of it. Either way, you won't need more than a short walk or quick taxi ride to get to the market.
