Where to Stay in Úbeda
Úbeda is a small Renaissance gem in Andalusia’s olive country. The best place to stay depends on the kind of trip you want. If you dream of sleeping in a palace, the monumental old town is perfect. Culture lovers will enjoy the historic centre, where museums, churches and tapas bars sit close together. Meanwhile, the quieter streets on the edge of the old town suit drivers and families. Úbeda shares its UNESCO World Heritage status with nearby Baeza, so you may want to see both. Read our Úbeda travel guide for more ideas.
One quick tip before you book. Úbeda gets busy during Easter week, spring weekends and autumn holidays. If you plan to visit at a peak time, it is a good idea to book your accommodation well in advance.
