Planning your Camino de Santiago pilgrimage? One of the most crucial decisions you’ll face is whether to book your accommodation in advance. With the growing popularity of the Camino, securing a comfortable place to stay is becoming increasingly challenging, especially in high season.
The Camino de Santiago attracts thousands of pilgrims every year, with numbers surging during spring, summer, and Holy Years. Popular routes like the Camino Francés from Sarria and the Camino Portugués from Tui are particularly crowded. If you wait until the last minute to find a place to sleep, you may end up walking extra kilometers or settling for uncomfortable alternatives.
Booking in advance ensures you have a guaranteed spot, allowing you to focus on enjoying your journey rather than stressing over where you’ll stay each night.
While some pilgrims enjoy the adventure of searching for accommodation on arrival, it can quickly become exhausting. After a long day of walking, the last thing you want is to arrive in a town only to find that all the albergues and hotels are fully booked. By using Livingthecamino.com or Caminodesantiagoreservas.com, you can secure high-quality accommodation that suits your needs—whether you prefer a cozy private room, a comfortable hotel, or a traditional pilgrim’s hostel.
Many towns along the Camino have limited accommodation, and relying on luck can be risky. Some pilgrims have been forced to take expensive taxis to nearby towns or even sleep outdoors due to a lack of available beds. By reserving in advance, you eliminate uncertainty and guarantee yourself a comfortable stay at the best locations.

✔ A wide selection of hand-picked accommodations along all major Camino routes.
✔ Easy and secure online booking.
