Lost Compostela

Lost my compostela. I think I left the tube at the hotel. Would anyone know if the PO will re-issue a replacement if presented with the credential that they closed out? Thanks
 
The one from Galicia (the round) and the one from Castilla & Leon. Individually numbered and made by the same people that make the ones you see on your walk.
Regrettably I do not know the answer to your question.

I respectfully suggest that if you have not already done so, you should as soon as is reasonably practicable contact the hotel(s) in question, describe what you left it behind, together with your room number and check-out date, and humbly request it be returned to you or saved for you to pick up in person as applicable to your circumstances. You will almost certainly have to pay the shipping costs.

I think most hotels set aside "found" items for a reasonable period of time but they do not actively reach out to the room's occupant. It is up to the guest to contact them.
 
3rd Edition. More content, training & pack guides avoid common mistakes, bed bugs etc

They will re-issue one if you call in and explain. That would be the simplest way.

Otherwise, send them your closed credencial with a letter explaining your situation.

Don't panic! Try the hotel first!
