Hi,
Anyone stayed at Hotel Rural San Thelmo in Fromista? I am looking for a private hostal there. Thanks
 
3rd Edition. More content, training & pack guides avoid common mistakes, bed bugs etc
Thank you. I will have a look. I have to do some planning because my husband won't be able to walk the full distance but I am going to try to do so and meet up with him at places along the way !!!! How is out there for taxis and buses between towns? Thanks heaps. Sonia

I have book a double room using Booking.com at the Hotel San Pedro for my friend and me. The doubles are €50.
 

Hi Sriyantra, taxis and buses are available along the way. There's a page there that will give you a bit more info. Good luck!
 
I stayed at the Hostal Camino de Santiago in Fromista. It was a lovely place with a good breakfast and wifi! Go past the Church of San Pedro towards Albergue Estrella del Camino, and it is on the left, on a small plaza.
Buen Camino!

Thanks very much. What about Vega de Valcarce any private accommodation/B&B/Hostal? I don't want to overextend myself by trying to make it from Villafranca del Bierzo to O'Cebreiro in one day so thought I would break it in Vega de Valcarce. Any recommendations? Thanks heaps. Sonia
 
Thanks once again. Blessings
 
The 2024 Camino guides will be coming out little by little. Here is a collection of the ones that are out so far.
Thanks once again. Blessings
Hi Again, Any ideas for private accommodation at Calle? I don't want to go over the 20km mark a day and am thinking of Sarria/Portomarin/Palas de Rei/Castaneda/Calle/San Paio/Santiago. Thanks. Sonia
 
Sonia,

If you haven't made reservations yet for Palas de Rei check out La Cabana. Although I generally stay in pilgrim albergues this is favorite restaurant/hotel spot of mine just east of Palas de Rei on the camino. They also offer a very good pilgrim room rate. Here is their web . Their friendly bar with wide verandah is a fine place to relax and use the free Wifi.

Thank you. I haven't made any bookings yet. I am fact finding while the days are hot and I am in air conditioning! I am still training everyday but do it early in the morning - 5 - 7am. At 65 years of age I joined a gym last week to do some training in cooler conditions. The 2 trainers hadn't heard of the Camino and were going home to watch "The Way". They have worked out a program for me and I had my first session this morning. On the step up machine I imagined I was walking from SJPDP to Roncesvalles!!! It will give me confidence. Thanks again for the help. Sonia

Hi, I want to stay somewhere special in Santiago to celebrate arriving (being optimistic). My son recommended Catedral Suites but it looks modern. Do you know of anywhere else that has a touch of luxury but has older architecture? Am willing to pay Aust$120 a night which = roughly 180euros a night. Thanks for your help. Sonia
 
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.
OOPS I meant Aust$120 which would equal approx 80 euros a night.......
