planning on walking the camino de santiago in june of 2013
hello,
does anybody know a cheap hostel in Biarritz. since I will arrive around 9.30 p.m. on the airport in Biarritz I want make it to st. jean pied de port on the same day. also, are there shuttle buses to the city center?
love,
katharina
 
The one from Galicia (the round) and the one from Castilla & Leon. Individually numbered and made by the same people that make the ones you see on your walk.
Hey,
I'm in the same boat. I arrive 9:30. Gonna head to Bayonne, staying at the Montecarlo, then grabbing the train the next morning to St Jean.
The Hotel is really close to the train station.
 
Katharina,
Your message is a little unclear.
If you are arriving at the airport in Biarritz at 9:30 pm, you will stay overnight in Biarritz or Bayonne and travel to St. Jean Pied du Port the next day.

There are lots of inexpensive hotels in Bayonne which is a 10 minute taxi ride from the Biarritz airport. There is also a city bus that goes from Biarritz to Bayonne, but I don't know about service in the evening.

I would taxi to "Place de Garre" (Train Station Square) in Bayonne, stay the night in a hotel there, and take the one hour train ride to St. Jean Pied du Port in the morning. If there is construction on the railway, as there has been in recent years, there will be a bus to SJPP from in front of the Bayonne train station.
 
Technical backpack for day trips with backpack cover and internal compartment for the hydration bladder. Ideal daypack for excursions where we need a medium capacity backpack. The back with Air Flow System creates large air channels that will keep our back as cool as possible.

€83,-
"Cheap" is a demeaning reference; why not use the word "inexpensive?" :roll:
 
Premiere Classe Biarritz is considered as one of the most hotels in Biarritz. It offers various services and features that will surely make your stay more comfortable.

The first edition came out in 2003 and has become the go-to-guide for many pilgrims over the years. It is shipping with a Pilgrim Passport (Credential) from the cathedral in Santiago de Compostela.
...and ship it to Santiago for storage. You pick it up once in Santiago. Service offered by Casa Ivar (we use DHL for transportation).
Thanks for the hint but I'm not sure if Premiere Classe can be considered as inexpensive.
Russell Gilman popped it just once to leave the ad, then never visited the Forum again. It probably can be taken at less than face value.
