The ViaLusitana's webpage lists all albergues (private and public) as well as places where the firefighters (bombeiros) will let pilgrims sleep on a mattress/floor/bed.

http://www.vialusitana.org/guia-caminho ... albergues/

One bit of bad news is that the Bombeiros in Albergaria a Velha will not take pilgrims, and the albergue that was supposed to open has not opened. But private accommodation is available.

Many thanks for this list Peregrina. I am wondering about the procedure for having my credencial stamped whether I am staying in a private or public albergue or even other private accommodation?
I would be grateful for any information as I would very much like to be able to produce a stamped one for my efforts!

The Compostela is given to those who have walked at least the last 100 kms (or cycled the last 200 kms) to Santiago. Proof of this is provided by the sellos (stamps)in your Credential - two sellos per day for every day you walk the last 100 kms. The sellos can be from churches, hotels, hostals, refugios, bars, ayuntas (local councils), bombeiros, police stations, etc. I personally make an effort to get them only from refugios and churches as I feel that is more in the spirit of the Camino, but that is only my opinion.
