Padrón podría ser la pequeña ciudad más importante de este camino o de cualquier otro. Fue aquí donde llegaron los restos de Santiago tras ser enviados al mar en una barca de piedra, como se cuenta en la historia de la translatio.

Su llegada a este punto concreto se atribuye al hecho de que fue aquí donde llegó por primera vez a predicar en vida, por lo que su regreso fue una especie de vuelta a casa.

Padrón es también el lugar de nacimiento de Rosalía de Castro, la laureada más famosa y querida de Galicia.

Padrón (y Herbón) son la cuna de ese delicioso pimiento verde y posiblemente picante que tal vez hayas tenido el placer de comer.

Scammer, charged 150% of what was advertised. Will only call 2 taxis and staff is rude.

If you stroll in Sunday afternoon before 4 pm you’ll be right smack dab in the middle of great farmers market!

Great hostel! The host is so kind and helpful. Whole place was clean and quiet.

The host recommended the restaurant O Alpendre—it was great! Be aware many restaurants are closed on Mondays.

This Restaurant is closed to city centre, and our group of 3 were lucky enough to get a table inside the bar when it was raining heavily.
The host is a young man, very friendly, always smiling, and speak quite good English. The soup, home-cook squid and garlic prawns were delicious, and all pilgrims should try if they arrive at Padron.

This is by far the best Albergue I have been to so far. Very clean, organized, water, coffee, cocoa, etc, for pilgrims (gratis). Lockers to use, sheets, towels, etc. all provided. Hosts are friendly and helpful.

Had an amazing meal. Price was very reasonable and server was great. Sangria was especially good. Located along the big tree park in town

The entry into town is not attractive, very industrial. But if you stick to the Camino path, it is a bit better. Stayed at Camino Portuguese, a relatively new, spotless, place with a restaurant below. Great location on road out of town. Basic but nice and affordable.

Clean and modern . Host is very attentive to keeping the place neat and tidy .
There is an oven but no stove to use , there is a microwave , toaster and kettle .

A great stay just before making it to Santiago . It’s on the yellow path so no need to deviate . Supermarkets were about 200m away . Restaurants across the albergue

Camino de Sant…

Stayed in Pensión Jardín in Padron. This has to be a stop in your Camino. Beautiful Church( with lots of history regarding St James), town and the pension just made the stay in Padron the icing on the cake.
