[sp01326]

Hi, could you let me know the availability of accommodations after Burgos now?
I’ll probably stay there tomorrow. Thanks

Hi, I hope someone in or around Burgos right now will see your question and respond. 1st May is the public holiday so hopefully the accommodation situation everywhere will be better tomorrow. Good luck.

All that I can do is refer you to Gronze.

Burgos, Burgos | Albergues y Hoteles | Gronze.com

I've stayed twice at Albergue de peregrinos Casa del Cubo y de los Lerma - there are 150 beds there, and it's first come first served.
Albergue Casa de Peregrinos de Emaús has 20 beds, and also does not accept reservations.

as @trecile said - check Gronze.com
I would also suggest the same for Booking.com or, if you have a list of Albergues that you possibly compiled previously.... or perhaps check any Camino App (i.e. Buen Camino, Camino Ninja WisePilgrim, etc.) - start contacting the Albergues directly via WHattsAp or email)
Good luck & Buen Camino

Thanks to everyone. I hope that also some walking pilgrim can give me updated infos.

I am in Castrojeriz right now. The albergue is not full (completo). People have been able to find beds after Burgos. There were just a few people queuing at the municipal at Hontanas at about midday today. I think there are plenty of beds available if you ring the accommodation directly or contact them through WhatsApp. Also someone in my room found lovely accommodation at San Bol last night, a donativo and unable to be booked.

Sorry I edited my original post because I don't know what happened to the sentence beginning with "People..."
I can't even remember what I was trying to say... Oops... Must be too hot and tired. Zzzz

 

[As gaat op stap in 2023!]

I've walked a 15 km to a place where I can take the bus to my next destination (40km from Burgos). The bus started from Burgos but then I've wouldn't walk today. I couldn't find a free bed within a range of 20 km from Burgos. So I was glad I found one even when it was so far.
I am waiting for the bus now. It goes once a day.

There are lots of albergues that don't take reservations and, as other people on here are saying, they're not full. Maybe you should consider changing strategy?

Yes, after a long walk from VillaFranka and a long search for a bed, I called it a day and caught the bus for Bilbao and a bed. I’am having a little trouble with the fact there were no beds for pilgrims in Burgos considering the size of this place. Iam now considering if I will continue the Camino at a later date.

Between Albergue de peregrinos Casa del Cubo y de los Lerma and Albergue Casa de Peregrinos de Emaús there are 170 beds that cannot be reserved in Burgos.
