Time of past OR future Camino
I plan to walk the Camino between 18th, August, and 26th, September, 2014
Is it advisable to pre-book accommodation at SJPDP for first night
 
A selection of Camino Jewellery
August will be busy and a confirmed reservation will set your mind at ease.
 
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.
Get a spanish phone number with Airalo. eSim, so no physical SIM card. Easy to use app to add more funds if needed.
Pat,

I always stay at the municipal albergue which does NOT take reservations.
Here are three separate listings from the SJPdP Office de Tourisme for
pilgrim albergues, tourist hotels and chambres d'hotes in SJPdP itself. Scan these for reservation possibilities.

L'Esprit du Chemin is now under new ownership and is called Beilari: http://www.beilari.info/en

Reports from this spring say the pilgrim spirit is alive and well there as always. Beilari is located directly across the cobblestone street from the Pilgrim's Office.

For something private I like Errecaldia with British Tim: http://www.errecaldia.com/index.php/en/ Errecaldia is located about 300 yards (3 minute walk) from the Pilgrim's Office, the opposite direction you will walk when you head towards Spain.
