We stayed there, too and they have private rooms.I prefer sleeping at Albergue la Escuela in Laguna.
I also stayed there in 2017. It was cozy.In 2017 we stayed in Casa (Meson ) Anton. Had a nice little room with private bathroom. The rooms are above the bar/restaurant and ours was comfortable and quiet.
Hi Dianne,I’m coming from NZ in April, starting in Leon and walking on my own. It’s getting close and after all the planning and waiting I’m getting excited.For a variety of reasons I’m staying in single rooms. I’m looking for somewhere to stay when I get to O Cebreiro but it looks like most places are in different nearby towns. I see it only has a population of 50. Are there places to stay there?
I enjoyed my stay at Casa Carolo (+34 982 367 168). Wonderful private accommodations. Great restaurant. Amazing vistas of the distant mountains.I’m coming from NZ in April, starting in Leon and walking on my own.

They did the following year. I had forgotten that but re-read my 1990 diary recently and saw that I shared the palloza with two Dutch pilgrims. Sleeping on straw and lit by candles. Perhaps not the safest of combinations!I heard that they sometimes let pilgrims sleep in the pallozas, too.
But probably the closest you'll get to the medieval pilgrim experience.They did the following year. I had forgotten that but re-read my 1990 diary recently and saw that I shared the palloza with two Dutch pilgrims. Sleeping on straw and lit by candles. Perhaps not the safest of combinations!
I made exactly the same comment in my diary that night!But probably the closest you'll get to the medieval pilgrim experience.
@Anniesantiago mentioned staying at Albergue la Escuela in Laguna. It is about a 35-45 minute climb up from there to OCebreiro. Has bunks. Easy to get food at. Clean.Hi Dianne,
A few years ago, I stayed at the Albergue O'Cebreiro. There's also Casa Carolo, Casa Valina and Casa Frade, each of which might have single rooms. Reservations are recommended in the summer. Pedrafita O Cebreiro (4.5 km off route) also has accomodation.
we stayed there in 2016, lovely roomIn 2017 we stayed in Casa (Meson ) Anton. Had a nice little room with private bathroom. The rooms are above the bar/restaurant and ours was comfortable and quiet.
A lot of places are always fully booked with Booking.com. These places want you call them and make the reservations directly. Some also want you to confirm reservation day before or morning of your reservation. Casa Carolo was very understanding seeing that I am a solo old pilgrim with physical challenges. I could almost swear, they gathered their friends to applaud me in my efforts when I walked in in the restaurant for dinner. They all left soon while I was having dinner. That was the fourth or fifth time it happened during my Camino 2023 . Buen Camino.Thank you so much fellow pilgrims. I was really impressed with your prompt and helpful suggestions and have messaged some places. All the ones on Booking.com say they’re full.
I seem to remember there being quite a few private places to stay. I stayed at a nice place called Hostal-Meson Vilasante. I found it on Booking.com. It was a single room with a shared bath but I rarely had to wait to use the bath. Close to the church, which is the town center for this tiny town. According to my records, it was about $37 USD in June 2022.I’m coming from NZ in April, starting in Leon and walking on my own.

We tried to book a private room in O Cebreiro but most of the places weren’t answering our repeated emails or were fully booked. We contacted Casa Carolo by phone and they booked us a room. We had a very nice stay there. I feel comfortable recommending it.I’m coming from NZ in April, starting in Leon and walking on my own.

I stayed there last year as well. I had a beautiful room with a gorgeous view of the funky tienda and valley beyond. Bookable on booking.com.I have stayed at Casa Frade which is nice and quaint although difficult to book. It has perhaps 4 rooms and is managed by an older woman who is not always there. My last journey through O Cebriero, I knocked on their door in a driving snow without any luck. I then went into Meson Venta Celta for a beer and a bite - they had no rooms available. However, they were good enough to make a phone call and got me a very nice single room just 20 yards away from their front door. There was no name on the establishment but it was warm, private and close by. Perhaps you can contact Venta Celta.
I’m starting on April 3rd so you’ll be a bit ahead of me.My husband and I are starting our Camino from Leon the first Monday in April. Maybe we’ll see you on the trail! Buen Camino!!
I would second la laguna - albergue la escuela. Friendly owners. Very small place but so peaceful with beautiful views of the mountains. One of my favourite places on the camino frances.Hello. Former Aucklander here. I walked into O Cebreiro last November and it was incredibly quaint. We opted to stay just before O Ceb in La Laguna and it was lovely. Others stayed in O Cebreiro in private rooms and the buoyed that too.
My husband and I will also begin our first Camino on March 31st, Sunday from Leon. I am sure we will see you on the trail! Buen Camino!!My husband and I are starting our Camino from Leon the first Monday in April. Maybe we’ll see you on the trail! Buen Camino!!
My choice is at La Faba just before O’ceberio. Quiet and well run. The you can see O’ceberio the next morning for breakfast and walk on down to Triacasta.I’m coming from NZ in April, starting in Leon and walking on my own.

Agreed. Greatly enjoyed the comfort, hospitality and food at Casa Carolo.I enjoyed my stay at Casa Carolo (+34 982 367 168). Wonderful private accommodations. Great restaurant. Amazing vistas of the distant mountains.
The Xunta albergues don't have hospitaleros like many other albergues. They are staffed by municipal employees who are just there during check in time. I presume that they also come back in the mornings to clean up.I have only stayed overnight in O Cebreiro once and it was at the huge muni. After being checked in, I never saw a hospi.
Well, with 104 beds and possibly only one paid staff worker, I can see why it was not cleaned up very well when I stayed.The Xunta albergues don't have hospitaleros like many other albergues.
