First night in Porto albergue?

Hello,

we are arriving in Porto 9. 8. later that day and will have to stay the first night in Porto. I want to ask if we can stay for that first night in some albergue or it is allowed only after we travel some distance on our journey?

Thanks for any advice.
Have a nice day

Hi Drumpy, you can stay your first night in the albergue, if you are walking right on the following day.
Just be conscious of what time you will arrive - albergues tend to close early.

Have a lovely camino, Porto-Santiago is amazing!
 
I stayed in Albergue do Peregrinos in Porto for the 2 nights - the night i arrived in Porto and the night before i started walking. The owner Oscar Miguel is a gem of a man and I'm sure will only be too happy for you to stay a couple of or a few nights
