Accommodation from Sarria

[Mick0]

Will be reaching Sarria next week, just wondering what the availability of accommodation is like at the moment? Is there a need to book ahead? I’ve mostly been winging it but have a friend joining so I’d like be be able to let him know what the situation is like.

How has it been so far?

The Xunta Albergues will be open and don’t take bookings. The merry throngs of Spanish School groups, Parish groups and their ilk will all be doing whatever they do for the rest of the year when they aren’t on pilgrimage. The guided and unguided tours will be in slack season. There should be plenty of beds available at least until the end of the month when the commercial establishments start shutting down till Spring. If you break out of the classic stages I can’t see that you’ll have any problems at all. I haven’t seen a single report of a bed less Pilg on that stretch this year

So far it’s been fine, though there are concerns about availability. In Rabanal this morn. My experience has been that there are beds available at on stage and off stage places thus far. But pilgrims are concerned that this may change dramatically after Sarria.

Just wrapped up my walk a couple of days ago, was passing through Sarria around 10 days ago, and there was no issue with accommodation from there to Santiago, especially if you are moderate to fast walker..

Can't truly answer the question - not there so would only be guessing but that said
I stayed in Pensión- Albergue CASA BARBADELO which is only 2.7 km farther on Camino from Ponte da Aspera.
Very nice, clean comfy beds restaurant and pool on premisses and awesome rural surroundings

Good Luck and Buen Camino

I've stayed there a couple of times - a five star albergue!

I walked in the end of July this year and could have avoided booking by staying off stage and arriving in the early afternoon.
If you know where you want to stop for the night then there is no problem to call ahead - hospitalaros also like to hear who is coming. But otherwise just stop somewhere off stage in the early afternoon and you will be find a bed - and probably even in the late afternoon.
Buen Camino.

Consider staying at the Xunta albergue in Ribadiso. Plenty of beds available most nights and it's such a lovely place to stay!
