SJPdP Pilgrim Office and Hostel Hours

[tgpynn]

I will be arriving in SJPdP around 8:00 PM (20:00). I am wondering what I will need to do to acquire the Pilgrim's credentials and a bed for the night at this time. I have attempted to reserve a hostel, but I waited until it was too late. I'd appreciate any information and good wishes for my camino! I leave the US tomorrow and will (hopefully) arrive in SJPdP the evening of the 6th!
Thanks!
Thomas

Thomas,

In Saint-Jean the office for the Amies du Chemin de Saint Jacques is at 39 rue de la Citadelle. They can provide you with a Credential and lodging assistance. Their volunteers also help run the albergue at 55 rue de la Citadelle. Recently renovated this is a fine place to stay, but they do NOT take reservations. If their albergue is full they will help you find lodgings when you are on site. By the way the station in St Jean is miniscule and closes for the night after the last train arrives. In season the pilgrims office is open from 7h30 to 12h30 and then from 13h30 to 22h.

Buen Camino,

Margaret
