Thank you very muchI believe Express Bourricot is or will be closed for the season. Do check ahead... Here is there website:
If they are open when you need them, they remain the single easiest and most reliable way to ship anything ahead to Santiago to be stored securely at Albergue / Hostal Lasalle until your arrival. When I go this way I usually send one rolling carry-on piece of luggage with my 'tourist' clothes and other stuff I will neither need nor want until I finish at Santiago.
As regards staying at SJPdP before starting, I prefer booking a hotel, so I KNOW the room will be waiting for me. IMHO there is nothing worse than going from albergue door to door, in the cold and dark, possibly with rain or snow, seeking a place to stay for the night.
Hope this helps.
Hello. Now only 3 hostel are open at SJPP. And Express Bourricot is closed too because for us is winter. You have to go on the pilgrims office 39 rue de la citadelle and the volunteers will help you.Hello,
I will arrive Paris on 8th of Nov and plan to arrive SJPP the same day. Probably it will be 7pm when I arrive SJPP. I found out there are lots of hostel on the Main Street. Can I stay there for two nights without credential? I saw Cite Buen Camino having very good reviews and trying to ask price rate per night. But no answer so far. Does it cost 10-15 euro/night ?
I plan to get credential on 9th (Saturday) of morning and send my luggage to Santiago.
Set off my journey on 10th of Nov.
I’m 55Kg and my package weights around 6.5 KG plus 1kg water=7.5 kg. Is it too heavy for me ? But I already did my best to pack still over 6kg .....
Thank you very much for all the reply. The reason why I would like to stay two nights is because I will fly from Taiwan to Paris. I think i need some time to adjust jet lag.I think most of the Gites in SJPdP will let you stay two nights. (I never had a problem in the rest of France on Le Puy route).
The only one I know of where you can stay only one night is the Refuge Municipal - unless you walked there. (and which you can't book ahead anyway).
7.5Kg pack sounds good!

My dear, you do not have to explain why you want to stay two or three nights in SJPP, from the moment you board the plane you have started your Camino, rest, enjoy and take care of yourself, Ultreia!!!
