New Original Camino Gear Designed Especially with The Modern Peregrino In Mind!
Here is a start from Gronze.com. Listed by location pilgrim albergues are in brown ink and regular accommodation is in black.
Happy research and Buen camino!
 
Ask your question at the camino del Norte subforum instead of the camino Inglès !
You'll definitively will get more reactions from pilgrims who walked the camino del Norte.

There are now many paper guides available that will give you some of these, or just google with the towns you plan to walk by or stay in.

I'm on the Norte now, and I find that there are huge holes in the information available to me. However, someone on the Forum posted some of her favorites, and I'm staying at one right now. Casa Carmina in Muros de Nalón. Wonderful private albergue, with a huge yard, and very friendly family running it.

Also, yesterday I was at Aviles, but the centrally located albergue is closed for renovations. I'd suggest you use many sources for your info. The Norte information is not anywhere NEAR as correct as something like the Brierley book for the Frances. I've been using some pensions as well, and there are some good ones for a reasonable price. And then there are some really mediocre ones for a reasonable price . . . If I weren't exhausted after today's walk, I'd list more. The Gronze list of towns is pretty good, but is not always accurate re the albergues. Buen Camino.
 
What are you using that is not giving you all the information you need?

I just finished the camino del norte a week ago on bike. I never used any guides, just my gps on my phone to get through it. I tried to stay in an albergue like once or twice, but they were usually full (and quite smelly). I always found pensions super easy and they were usually around $30 euros a night and because of the low season, always had rooms available even when I was showing up around 6-7pm every night. I stayed in the monastery in Mondoñedo and Sobrado, other than that, I found it pretty simple to find a place. In Santiago, within 5 minutes or arriving to the cathedral, I had 3 different people come up to me asking me if I needed a place to stay. The Camino provides. I honestly have no idea how anyone who doesn't speak any Spanish can do this, because I don't think many Spaniards on the camino speak English.

I have worked my way on gronze without anything more than BASIC knowledge of Spanish (you know, Si and No and Por Favor...), planning my stages from Irun to Bilbao. I used google translate, and after a while you will get the hang of the most common words. I found the site a really good tool for planning. When it comes to actually walking and communicating on the Camino, time will show how I will manage
 
Not long finished myself Irun to Bilbao....found it tough (up and down) compared to more popular Camino.....pretty quiet tbh (although I didnt stay in Albergues) met maybe 15-20 pilgrims across 7/8 days (Mostly Spanish, the odd American a couple of Dutch people and one or two French).....mostly kept themselves to themselves though....
 
Have to put in a recommendation for the private Albergue, Solar de Hidalgos in Santillana Del Mar. Last night we paid €10 each to be in the municipal Albergue in Santander, which was awful. Tonight we are in Solar de Hidalgos. It is beautiful. We are in a room for four with our own ensuite. The hosts are wonderful and we are only paying €15 each. Highly recommended.
 
The 2024 Camino guides will be coming out little by little. Here is a collection of the ones that are out so far.
I second that recommendation, the building is out of a fairytale. I paid 10€ last fall, plis 4€ for breakfast, and that I do not recomend: 2 slices of commercial break and a weak coffee. But the bathrooms are super luxurious!
