List of Private Albergues on Camino Frances

[sillydoll]

The 2008 Red de Albergues list of private albergues can be downloaded from the website
These include some new albergues and some tradtional. All can be reserved ahead, most will take pilgrims with vehicle backup and some will allow you to spend more than one night. The generally cost up to 9 euro per night.

I can't seem to get the pdf to download. But I have stayed at several of these albergues & found all of them to be clean & neat. The best was in Boadilla, the one with the very welcoming hosts & swimming pool! Doesn't look like much on the outside, but once you go through the gates, wowzers!

I did stay at the one in Puente La Reina & the only downside was the long hike up the hill to get there. I nicknamed it the "mini" Alto del Perdon for that reason.

My blog has reviews of the ones I stayed at between Logrono & Leon, so feel free to check them out if you're interested in staying in one of these network albergues.

Hi Kelly,
If your computer is slow, it will take ages to download. I am busy updating the word doc I created from last year's brochure. As soon as I have completed it I will attach it to a post. I have found a couple of errors with websites (.com instead of .es) but will mention these when I post it.

Hi Sil, thanks for going to all the trouble of retyping the list. Just what I need for my final list making myself! I've managed to condense 3 guide books onto 6 pages of A4 paper - saving myself many grammes of weight! I've listed the towns, distances, albergue types in each town, tips from other forum members about the route, or albergue or town.....etc. Only 9 weeks to go!!!! Thanks again for all your trouble, cheers Jane

 

[sillydoll]

That is great Jane! Perhaps you can share your mini-guide with others on the Forum?

..and don't forget The Peaceable Kingdom, the "word of mouth" private place in Moratinos. It's not listed, except in the CSJ Guide. phone 664 539 188.

As someone who has enjoyed the wonderful hospitality in the Peaceable Kingdom, I add my hearty recommendation!

 

[sillydoll]

Hi Reb,
Would you like me to add an email address for the Peaceable Kingdom to my list?

 

[Janeh]

Hi sil,I definately will give my list out to others on the forum, once i get back from my camino. I'm too embarrassed to do it before in case it is horribly wrong! Hopefully it won't be, but no doubt will need a bit of changing once I've done the walk myself. I probably will post my packing list before I go - so far it's weighing in at under 8kg so I'm quite pleased with that. Jane

 

[JohnnieWalker]

Hi Jane - a pack under 8k - CONGRATULATIONS!

That will stand you in good stead - a great example.

Buen Camino

John

We stayed at the albergue in Boadilla also- Boadilla del Camino and would highly recommend it. It seemed like a 5 star hotel to me!!! Gorgeous gardens, extremely clean and very cool rooms with bunks, fantastic food and wonderful people. I´m actually thinking about bringing me husband (not a walker) here sometime and would definitely stay there.
