Where to stay in Paterna
Paterna is a compact town just outside Valencia city, so staying close to the town centre puts you within easy reach of the weekly market. Try Town Centre for the most convenient base, or look at options in La Canyada, a well-connected residential area with good transport links.
If you'd prefer more choice in accommodation, Valencia city centre is only around 15 minutes away and worth considering. Staying there gives you access to a much wider range of hotels, and you can easily make the short trip out to Paterna on market day.
