Please give up to date average cost of albergues

[RhondafromBC]

Hello. My partner and I will be walking from Lisbon to Santiago starting in July. We would like to try and stay in albergues as much as possible. Could you please tell me what we could expect the average cost per person/night to be for accommodation? thanks

Hi and welcome to the forum @RhondafromBC Costs range from Donativo/Donation (which doesn't mean free!) to around 15 Euro for a private albergue and anything in between. Buen Camino, SY

These are per person costs for dormitory style rooms. You will pay more if you decide to use private rooms if they are available.

Im.on.the camino now, currently in Portomarin from Leon, oir albergues have been anything from 5€ to 10€ or if u want private room 15€ to 20€

My wife and I walked from Lisbon to Santiago this year April/May. Half of the nights we stayed in albergues and paid from 5 to 15 euros/person, including those two or three donativos. The one of 15eur. was including breakfast. There is less albergues between Lisbon and Porto.
Second half we stayed in hostels paying from 30 to 45 euros for double room. There are even hotel rooms available in that price cathegory.
Hope this helps.
Bom Caminho

I can only agree with the above comments - I tried to filter the type to "Albergue" on the list of accomodation at https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/15YjQVotp9btlbTUx6YDMgFpHcm3__9msYMJ_nHKOe2E/edit#gid=0 and it is in line with the other comments

When you stayed in hostels paying 30 to 45 Euros for a double room was that per person or the amount for both of you? Thanks

In Hostels? Most certainly per room, not per person - that would be the price of an upmarket hotel. BC SY

Agree with SYates - it is per room. That was what my wife and I did when we walked the Camino Portugues.

You absolutely must make it a point to stay at O Recuncho do Peregrino in Redondela. Miguel Amoedo is the essence of what the Camino should be. His albergue is spotless, comfy and he is the best host ever. I can't praise him enough. AND it's 10 euro a person! My sister and I had a room with two twin beds but he also has bunks. If you go tell him Renee from the USA who lost his keys referred you.
