Hi, we need a bit more information. What is your budget? Private rooms or cheaper dormitories? Will you be up at dawn and out by 8am (hostels), or taking your time and wanting a leisurely breakfast (NOT hostels)? And would you want the communal evening supper experience, or prefer to go out to a smart restaurant?any suggestions?
Excellent choice! We stayed at Gite Makila for two nights (private room) before starting our Camino Frances in Oct last year. The gite is very comfortable, spotless with a really nice breakfast. Basically a few doors from the Pilgrim Office and the Boutique du Pelerin (pilgrim shop). Pancho was a fantastic host..made us feel very welcome and right at home.After quite a bit of research, I booked into Gite Makila before I start my late March Camino.

Beilari is my favorite place to stay in Saint Jean. Great meeting other peregrinos that I will see again and again walking Camino. Love this place!Hi, we need a bit more information.

I too have booked Gite Makila before I start my first Camino on May 15thAfter quite a bit of research, I booked into Gite Makila before I start my late March Camino.
Which albergue was that? (Just curious in case I've booked the same one!)During our second camino, we had a reservation at a private albergue. We showed up early afternoon and found out the doors would not open until 3 pm. It was quite inconvenient to haul our backpacks around the hilly town for a few hours until the albergue opened.
I stayed here - https://www.ultreia64.fr/ - it is very central, they were very nice and it was very comfortable.Hi, we need a bit more information. What is your budget?

I did some research of past forum posts and Beilari come up over and over as a good experience. I've booked my first night there. Note that they are closed Sundays. Here's the link to their web site. You can book on line: https://www.beilari.info/enI've stayed at Beilari - great experience with a communal dinner
Just curious are the communal meals at set times?Hi Bill,
I highly recommend Beilari albergue—across the way from the Pilgrim office. It’s a family run albergue. What I really like is their warm hospitality, a communal meal in the evening, and an ice-breaking group time where everyone gets to share their enthusiasm, doubts, excitement, fears in a congenial and easy going atmosphere. When you start the walking adventure the following morning you already have friends. I can’t recommend this albergue high enough!! I’ll be back there in April. Can’t wait! PS—MAKE RESERVATIONS!
