Albergue resource

[BrianNj]

Hello all,
I am wondering if anyone knows of a good resource for information on albergues that I can bring with me, or just research ahead of my trip. So far I have only found minimal information - bed, cost, facilities. I wanted to have something that I couls refer to in order to get a sense of flavor and pilgrim favorites.

Thanks!

In the resources section of this site there is a pdf of favourite alburgues you can download.
I use the reviews on Gronze.com, the Wise Pilgrim app to pick alburgues sometimes. Also a lot of the private alburgues have reviews on Booking.Com

The reviews in the Wise Pilgrim app are fabulous for giving you a sense of the albergue.

I used the "favorite albergues" pdf @NomadBoomer mentions, as well as the Wise Pilgrim app.

But quite honestly, the ones I stumbled into randomly were often just as good, and sometimes the experience was even better. Be open to whatever comes your way and it will all work out.

Thank you everyone, just downloaded both, definitely a little more of the information that I was looking for. I am not planning on trying to meticulously plan anything really, I will mostly be winging it as far as what town to stop in etc. I just wanted to try to have something that would help me decide which albergue to approach first etc. I appreciate all of the support.

Download the trailsmart app. It lists all albergues hotels banks grocery stores plus there addresses and contact info. I used it on the Portuguese coastal route very helpful

I can't figure out how to download and see the list

I recommend Camino Pilgrim app. It is useful not only albergue but also maps, your location, planning.

I'll give the detailed steps on my android phone it may be a little different if you are using something else to view the site.
1. Click on the 3 line icon in the top left.
2. That should bring up the site menu scroll down and click on Resources
3. That should put you on the list of Resources. Pick the third item A selection of favourite alburgues... Click on the link
4. At the top of the item you should now see the download button. Click on this and follow any instructions

Once you’ve clicked on the List you want, do you get the orange Download button on the right, towards the top?
Have you clicked on it?

On my iPad, clicking on Download shows me the Document ... which I then copy to iBooks.
There is only one Download ‘button’ ... it doesn’t specify any device eg a Mac.
