Over a month ago I received confirmation from the Orisson refuge that they received my request for a one night stay. No follow up for confirmation. I asked again last week for confirmation. No follow up. Any idea what's happening?
 
Down bag (90/10 duvet) of 700 fills with 180 g (6.34 ounces) of filling. Mummy-shaped structure, ideal when you are looking for lightness with great heating performance.

Did you receive a link to PayPal to make your deposit? If you did, and you paid, then the confirmation of payment is all that you need. Don't expect any further confirmation from Orisson.
 
Yeah, that's how,I remember it being when I stayed. By the way, best decision I ever took was not attempting to walk straight through to Roncesvalles from SJPDP! Have fun!!!
 
Very light, comfortable and compressible poncho. Specially designed for protection against water for any activity.

Our Atmospheric H30 poncho offers lightness and waterproofness. Easily compressible and made with our Waterproof fabric, its heat-sealed interior seams guarantee its waterproofness. Includes carrying bag.

They do seem to be a bit slow to respond. I sent my request in and got the booking confirmation and billing about 3 weeks later. I had a similar experience in past years.

I really think you will be ok.
 
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.

Exactly the same with me. I guess I will find out in a couple days (10 May). Worst comes to worst, I'll get a taxi back to SJPP and try to find something else.

I've done it both ways - walking through on the Valcarlos (due to unexpected poor weather) and staying the night in Orrison.

Honestly, the Valcarlos was doable in one day. Orrison was "Meh" - not as enjoyable as I expected.

The goal is to get to SdC, however you do it. Buen Camino!!

No I did not receive link from pay pal. Just notification that they received request
I have stayed there twice— the link for pay pal might be in a separate message and that might be in your spam folder— international mail often goes there, most notably my recent Portuguese train reservations which commonly can’t be put into Wallet features on cell phones, so I really needed the e-mail, and fortunately retrieved from spam. BTW, I distinctly remember there not being a reference to the word, Orisson, in the subject line. Instead it had the name of the man who took care of reservations (I can’t remember it, but definitely a French name). I would check spam from around the date you received the notice that they had your request and go forward from there. I hope all goes well with it!
 
Get a spanish phone number with Airalo. eSim, so no physical SIM card. Easy to use app to add more funds if needed.

Same with me Frannie , I received confirmation and then no more emails. I was expecting to receive one so I can pay. I too sent another one, just in case, but haven’t heard back.
I have booked another night in SJPDP just in case we arrive and they don’t have 2 beds, and thought I would use the taxi service to go back down to SJPDP and stay the night and then transfer back to Orisson the next day. I am interested in this thread , thank you.

Interesting that you would post this. As I need to change my original one night request. That said, I did check SPAM and it's not there. And I too am going to book another night in SJPDP [Sept. 20, 21} just in case. Thanks for posting. When are you going to be in Orisson?
 
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.
No I did not receive link from pay pal. Just notification that they received request
I've stayed at Orisson on several occasions. I distinctly remember that when I didn't receive a link one year, I finally found the message with the link to Paypal in my spam folder; also that the subject line did NOT have a reference to Orrison-- it was from "SARL APATHIA" and the subject line was a reminder to pay the invoice (Rappel : vous devez régler cette facture). If you don't find it in your spam folder or elsewhere, I would write them again and explain that it might have gone to spam and been deleted accidentally. They are known to resend links.
