Where to stay in Elche
Staying in the city centre puts you closest to San José Street Market, and you'll find a solid choice in Hotel Huerto del Cura, a well-regarded option right in the heart of town. Elche City Centre is your best bet if you want to walk to the market without any fuss.
If you'd prefer a bit more choice, the area around El Raval has smaller guesthouses and is still an easy stroll from the market. Either way, you won't need a car to get around once you're settled in.
