The Scot was broken in the first game of the match and also at 5-5 on his way to losing the first set.
Murray was 6-2 behind in the second set tie-break before valiantly recovering to win it 11-9 and force a decider.
He broke a tiring Robredo three times in the third as he won his first title since winning Wimbledon last year.
Murray said: “I got lucky, basically, at the end of the second set. I fought hard, tried my best and thankfully managed to turn it round.”
The victory moves Murray up to 10th in the rankings in the race to reach the ATP World Tour Finals in London during November, with the top eight qualifying.
