[Former member 90922]

Hi,
I will arrive in Pamplona today, Saturday, August 31. What time will I need to arrive by, in order to secure a bed at the Pilgrim hostel, Iglesia de Jeysus y Maria? Thank you, Elize

I have no idea, Elize, but I look forward to hearing when you have actually found a bed! Welcome to the forum, and buen camino.

I think they open around 13:00? Be there around that time and you should be fine. Where are you coming from? I know I arrived there around 12:00 and sat on the step with a young woman from Germany. We watched each other’s packs so could leave and get some food. We were assigned bunks 1 and 2 (lower bunk, btw).

Good luck! Many, many albergues have opened in Pamplona. I was astonished by the change since my first Camino in 2009. If the albergue is completo, there is a tourist center—Calle San Saturnino, 2–they should be able to help you find a bed. They are open until 17:00 and I’ve found them to be extremely helpful. Phone: 948 42 07 00.

If it were me, and I was arriving that late, I'd make a reservation somewhere.

Just FYI a friend of mine arrived in Pamplona (via Aer Lingus and bus from Bilbao last Thursday) at about 8pm and picked up a Credential and a bed in Jesus y Maria. It stays open until 11pm and yes there are lots of Albergue options in Pamplona as mentioned above.

Let's know what happened - it's today after all!!
