Santiago lodging

[Sally Forester]

hi all! I'm about 2 days out from Santiago and am wondering if some of you have Santiago lodging recommendations for me.?Something close to cathedral and with other pilgrims. I'd like something cozy and simple to ease me back into real life.
Thanks!
Sally

Sally,

Be sure to check out what others and I have posted re the pilgrim albergue rooms at San Martin Pinario which faces the north side of the cathedral. See more in this earlier Forum thread.

Hostal Hortas at Rua Hortas , close to cathedral and new Pilgrim's Office.

Seminario Menor. You can pay a bit extra and get a small private room (former monk's room). Friendly, clean. 10 minute walk to the Cathedral. www.alberguesdelcamino.com/en/santiago/albergue-seminario-menor

Albergue or private accommodations?
As far as albergues go, I like El Ultimo Sello (The Last Stamp) http://www.thelaststamp.es/
As far as private accommodations go I liked A Casa do Peregrino.

Both places are only about 200 meters from the Cathedral and on the Camino itself.

Close to the cathedral? Oh the Parador sin douda (guess who is brushing up on his Spanish in preperation for August?)
