Refuge Orisson Web site broken?

Hey all,
Has anyone tried to make a reservation through the Orisson Web site and been unable to? Every time I try I get a message telling me my email can't be sent, and to try again later. This has been happening for days now.
Getting a bit concerned, as I know they fill up quickly and need to make a reservation. I would telephone them, but I don't speak French!
Any help/thoughts gladly appreciated...
Buen camino,
Chris
 
The focus is on reducing the risk of failure through being well prepared. 2nd ed.
Not sure baron. Someone else reported being able to make a booking recently. But I know that my Miam Miam Dodo said they were open from the end of March to the end of October. So I guess it is possible they are not open properly yet, and their e-mail inbox has become full and 'over quota', as I know can happen with some e-mail providers. But I am only guessing.

Technical backpack for day trips with backpack cover and internal compartment for the hydration bladder. Ideal daypack for excursions where we need a medium capacity backpack. The back with Air Flow System creates large air channels that will keep our back as cool as possible.

Hey Chris,

We were able to book there, just the other day. They sent back a confirmation, too. I'll ask my friend what address she sent the email to.

Up the mountain we go...

I sent an email in French at least a couple of weeks ago and have not yet had a reply, I was beginning to get concerned, even more so now, but perhaps they just haven't got started yet, I hope that is the only problem.
 
Hi,

I emailed last night and received a reply today confirming my booking.

They wanted a deposit for the booking so I also forwarded a paypal email so that I could send a deposit that way. It was very straight forward and certainly a prompt reply.

I used the address - refuge.orisson@wanadoo.fr

Good Luck

Very light, comfortable and compressible poncho. Specially designed for protection against water for any activity.

Our Atmospheric H30 poncho offers lightness and waterproofness. Easily compressible and made with our Waterproof fabric, its heat-sealed interior seams guarantee its waterproofness. Includes carrying bag.

€60,-
Thank you so much to all who posted--I emailed them directly through their email address. Hope to hear a reply soon!
 
We booked our accommodation in Orisson by ringing them and speaking in French. We did this from Australia.

Good news: I was able to make my reservation with Orisson today through the direct email folks provided. I really appreciate it--thank you!
 
This early in the season you should not have a problem with booking at Orrison, BUT...if you have not sent payment...even if you have a confirmation (especially later in the year) have the pilgrim office in SJPDP call ahead to confirm. Although an infrequent problem, folks with confirmations have been told on arrival...no room at the inn.

Just be sure!

Buen I had a great time at Orrison Camino,

It's 2013 and I'm having the same problem. I sent an e-mail using the link on the Refuge Orisson website and haven't heard back - have tried it twice.
 
The one from Galicia (the round) and the one from Castilla & Leon. Individually numbered and made by the same people that make the ones you see on your walk.
Good to see this info as I am going to try and book something today.
 
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.
Just be patient and he will eventuall respond. I haven't not got a reply yet.
