Pilgrims on the road and friends along the way send me changes every day, and they go out the same day. The Camino Francés app carries all of it offline, and it's still being built — new features arrive routinely.

Oh my goodness

Casa Forte de Lusio is simply stunning and needs to be added as a variant on the French Camino. The building is glorious and state of the art. There is a kitchen with a working stove and microwave. As well there is a fridge and some plates and utensils, one pot which can be used on stove. Compared to many other albergues private, municipal and Xunta this place is beyond beautiful. Oh and €10. At this point I am the only one here to appreciate the history and luxury.

Quiet and comfortable stay

I had the whole place to myself on May 15! The hostess was very nice and welcoming.
The building is an old palace and is beautiful!
As mentioned in previous reviews, there is no food here so you have to bring your own. There are also no cookware or utensils so keep that in mind when buying your food.

Hidden gem !

This renovated estate/fort is a quiet but large facility. Just off the trail, via main road that runs parallel to trail across the river. Good signage from San Cristovo de Real. I had the place to myself, May 8, 2024. Very modern inside, but Must bring your own food, no bars or restaurants nearby. Does have Very basic kitchen. Does not provide blankets, though a heater was provided in small dorm room where I was placed.

Stayed here in May 2015-worth

Stayed here in May 2015-worth stepping off the route to stay in this amazing old palace with contemporary extension. We were the only 2 staying there. So peaceful. Basic kitchen facilities-do bring your own food.
