Where to stay in Logroño?

Time of past OR future Camino
French (starting late July)
I'm heading for Logroño tomorrow and are a bit overwhelmed with the long list of albergues there... can anyone recommend a good place?
By good I mean decent facilities, quiet, and ideally with dinner and/or breakfast options, though this isn't a deal breaker.

Thank you!

Just as you enter the center part of the city, you’ll come across the Albergue Santiago Apóstol. Unfortunately, it wasn’t one of my favorite Camino nights. Although it was quite clean, it was also very institutional with very little character except for the outside of the building. More concerning was that it wasn’t very quiet. My dorm was next to the dinning area. People were up quite late making a great deal of noise with no one at the albergue controlling the situation. A poor nights sleep even wearing earplugs. It gets very mixed reviews on Gronze.

On my second trip through Logroño, my accommodations were much better. I stayed at the Winederful Hostel also on the same street and just steps from the central plaza. Unfortunately, I can’t compare apples to apples as I stayed in a private room. However, I do remember enjoying a couple beers in a comfortable lounge area, very friendly hospitaleras, and I did get a good nights sleep. From Gronze, I see that beds are a bit more expensive here at €21. But, it might be worth checking into. Great tapas in Logroño! Enjoy!

i stayed in Albas Albergue del Camino - completely away from busy touristy downtown in a residential area with huge courtyard where happy children play.
there is a restaurant next door, couple of more within a block or 2 walk, some supoermarkets and you are 10-min walk from Cathedral and 15 min walk from the Laurel St - the tapas bar heaven
Good luck and Buen Camino
 
For me, it was important to stay in a place without a curfew In Logroño so that I could take full advantage of the tapas scene on Calle del Laurel. A tapas crawl with my fellow pilgrims was a highlight of my last two times on the Camino Frances.

I booked into a pensión both times.
 
I agree! The tapas scene in Logrono is amazing and it is one city I would not have wanted to be committed to a communal dinner or staying on the outskirts. That said, I think I was still in bed by 10:00pm, although I would no longer recommend the place I originally stayed at. It was a convenient location to all the "action", but two years later it had changed a lot.

In 2015 I stayed at the Hostel Entresuenos. Big, great location and it didn't have a curfew, which came in handy because several of us went out for wine and tapas until about 3 am. The next morning I got up late and they gave me the option of booking another night, but I opted for a the late start and made it a short walking day to Navarette after loading up on coffee and breakfast.

hi there i hate to say it but i stayed there in may and it’s not solely for pilgrims, so we happened to have a very rough and rowdy crowd that night that allowed really no sleep. so it’s the luck of the draw.
 
The donativo next to the church, Iglesia de Santiago - Barriocepo 8. Highly recommended. It is run by extremely warm hearted volunteers. There is a cummunal dinner and there is breakfastbuffet in the morning. You can help with preparing the food or doing the dishes. I've had a marvelous experience there.

Only.. sleeping can be a problem as it is in the centre and i am pretty sure fridaynight is partytime. Also the facilities are a little primitive.

I stayed there too. It was great. The landlady was wonderful (if you spoke Spanish).

I stayed at The Winderful Hostel in May, It was in the centre of Logroño, it was clean, friendly and a great breakfast. Would definitely recommend.
 
I stayed at the first one you come to after the bridge. Can't remember the name. It was good. Remember the Dylan line, "what's looks large from a distance ain't never that big. Enjoy the walk.

In 2017 we stayed at Pension Daniel on Calle San Juan near the cathedral . We checked in at the bar across the street from the rooms. The rooms were basic but clean and comfortable and shared s very nice bathroom. The rooms were also quiet.

Check out Roots wine bar while you’re there if wine is your thing!
 
I stayed at the unfortunately named Winederful in May based on glowing reviews. It's ... fine.

The good: it's spotlessly clean, and the individually curtained bunk pods are comfortable.
But at 26 euro my 6-bed mixed dormitory room was practically the same cost as a private room elsewhere, the room was very stuffy (the window for our room didn't offer much by way of ventilation and you have to ask at the front desk for them to turn up the AC), and as someone else mentioned above it's not pilgrim-exclusive so late night noise was a problem. (They also don't start breakfast service until 7:30 AM so you're out of luck in that regard if you plan on getting an early start.) I'll stay somewhere else next time I'm in Logroño.

I stayed in the Santiago Apostal a couple of nights ago and highly recommend it. The Australian and Italian volunteer hospitalera/os are fantastic, do helpful and welcoming. The atmosphere they create is wonderful. They have Twinings English Breakfast tea (4.90 for 25 tea-bags ... What can I say?), free all day, not the usual yellow label stuff found on the Camino. The beds are comfortable, the top bunk unused and lots of space, wooden partitions so no noise. It's excellent and much improved from my last visit. You won't be disappointed.

Yes. It is a great place, very close to the town center, right after you cross the bridge into town. Book it! You’ll love it!
 
I plan to have 2 rest days at the Hostal Numantina on C Segata in Logrono in May 2023. Cant wait!

Hola - All I can say is - don't stay there!!?? In my two Caminos I tried to avoid Brierley's stage endings. Both times we carried on to Navarrete. But if you have walked your 25km /15 miles then I am sure you will find something suitable. Cheers

I liked Albas better than any placed else I ever stayed in Logroño. In spite of the large group that turned on all the lights and loudly planned their day at 05:30! But that was only one morning, and I was there for several. I do speak Spanish, and the lady told me the courtyard behind did not belong to them. BUT, since we had a door to it, we (me and other guests) used it anyway. I thought the message odd, since I didn't see any way for whoever owned it to get there. My main transportation was bicycle, so it was a minor inconvenience to have to ask for a key to the garage nearby every time I came or went. But I still prefer it to the others.

Well... lots can be said about the people who turn the lights on and loudly planned their day at 5:30.... although on my Camino that seems to be almost a norm for majority of the folks to start stirring up at 5:30 (although the lights on seem to be reasonably kept to 6:00). I guess my point it that it can (and will) happen almost anywhere along the Way
By 'courtyard' I presume you mean the large patio (see enclosed) that was accessible through 2 doors from the albergue bedroom? Hmmm... definitely strange as nobody said a peep to us and thats where we hung our laundry and the bikes were stored for bicycle folks.
