Accommodation & facilities

This page lists both low cost as well as touristic accommodations for pilgrims and tourists, restaurants, and facilities located along the Via Francigena. More information about the accommodations, including pictures, can be found on our interactive map and by clicking on “accommodations & facilities catalogue” below.

The accommodations highlighted in the Visit Vie Francigene lists have confirmed to be open. EAVF is not responsible for the adaptation that each structure is required to make as indicated in the national and regional regulations. We recommend to contact each accommodation in advance to find out about the actual opening and book your stay.

Accommodations’ characteristics

The organization of accommodation facilities along the Via Francigena is not as widespread and economic as on the Camino de Santiago. Even if the situation continues to improve, it is good to plan ahead, identifying at every stage an adequate accommodation to their needs.

Keep in mind that most accommodations have a few beds. We suggest you to book at the tourist facilities, while it is not necessary for the “pilgrims”. However, you should notify at least one day before, specifying the arrival time, because often the custodians of the hostels do not live in close proximity and without warning you may risk find enclosed rooms.

The average price for a night in one of the pilgrim hostels is hardly ever more than 20 Euro (minimum 10, maximum even 25 euro for the more “touristy” hostels), but there are some facilities (above all religious ones) who provide accommodation on an “offer” basis.
