Albergue de peregrinos de As Seixas

We were quite surprised to arrive here to only 3 other guests plus our family of 4 at the peak of the season ((July 11) after waking up at 4 every morning to secure the next Muni Albergue. The renovation on the building is amazing. Kitchen is typical of a Xunta Albergue with a modern range top, microwave, and pleasant modern seating. Like other Municipal Albergues in Galicia you just have to have your own pot and utensils for cooking…at least you will know who used it last!

This place felt like a resort. They must have used the same architect to renovate all of their spaces. I’m sorry if there are 40 drunk pilgrims when you stay, but for us there were only 3 quiet pilgrims and a great house.

Feel like i stumbled upon a little gem. The lady at the front desk was supper accommodating.. Building looks brand new. showers and bathrooms were super clean. one of my favorite municipal alburgues so far.

I came here hoping for good things, and maybe it’s just because I’ve stayed in the municipal in Castrelo before so I hoped for something similar. I was one of the first people here and for some reason wasn’t even given the option of staying in the smaller room…couldn’t tell what the difference there is, or why. Even on asking the woman at the front desk I was directed to the larger room. So maybe you have to not be first to get the best beds here? Or maybe it’s bribes, who can tell.

The larger room has 32 beds total, stacked ON TOP of eachother, while the smaller has like 6. There is one bathroom for ALL of these upstairs, and two bathroom more downstairs with some showers. That’s it. For like 40 people. And it was packed here…maybe I just got unlucky with the group I was staying with, but everybody was loud and screaming and drunk at 9:30pm and hanging out in the hallways. The facilities would be clean enough I suppose, and they are modern, but with the group here it just sucks. Do yourself a favour and snag a bed in the 12 bunk Castrelo and make the push there to Melide. Now THAT place was a dream. This is not worth the push from Lugo AT ALL! Or pay a little extra (worth the 4 euro) and just go to A Toqueira next door…good food, smaller rooms, and fewer drunken idiots.

I’m really impressed. Right on Camino way. Clean, modern, full of air and modern infrastructure.

Very clean, modern and cosy. It has the same quirks as other Galician municipales—viz. beautiful modern kitchens with no cookware, utensils, or plates/cups—but I had stayed in a few before this so knew what to expect and had brought cutlery and paper plates. As long as you’re prepared for that it’s fine. Plenty of showers which work well. Private albergue next door offers communal dinner (not lunch but they did offer to make another peregrino a sandwich which was very hospitable)) for what is now €12.50, which I consider pretty good. It was tough pushing on the extra km from Lugo but it’s worth it imo!

This is such a beautiful albergue! Really modern and friendly staff! The dorm room is super dark for sleeping which was nice. Go next door to the other albergue for dinner (€12 for 3 courses). The only downsides: the smell of manure was pretty strong! We all struggled with it. Also the kitchen has almost no dishes or utensils so bring your own if you can!

i'm a solo female pilgrim and was great to be able to use the really large garden to set up for the night. still had to pay £10 for use of albergue, including shower/toilet/hand washing (although washing machine is available) and to charge my phone (kitchen is a joke there are no utensils or pots or crockery so it's pointless lol). there is a restaurant at private albergue next door. had my own food but heard from other pilgrims it was great :) don't know about dietary options next door... bring your own food for this stretch if you have special dietary requirements ♥️

Nice and clean albergue with a kitchen but no kitchen equipment at all so we couldn’t cook or even warm any food, not even boiling water since it was not any cups :(

Very strict but you can put up a tent in the garden. Ik payed €8 and there is a washer / dryer combo and kitchen. It is about 8km from Ferreira. In case all is full you can try here. Good luck and Buen Camino.
