Hospice
They will greet guests like Christ RB
Hospitality constitutes a service proper to Benedictine monks, since monasteries are centers of Christian life. Every day more and more men turn to monasteries to find a framework of prayer, help and fraternal charity where they can meet God again.
DURATION
OF THE STAY
We hope you benefit from the time you spend in the monastery and for this reason the minimum stay is two days. It takes time to calm down from the hectic pace of life and get into the monastic rhythm.
As monks we open our doors and our hearts to all people who want to meet God, who come to cultivate their inner life, share the monastic liturgy and respect the peace of the monks and other guests.
INFORMATION

The rooms have a bed and a desk to read or meditate. We provide you with all the bedding and towels during your stay. If you are cold, ask the host to provide you with an extra blanket.
Guests can also take advantage of the common areas for reading, to prepare tea or coffee and to take reading books from the hostel's library. These books are at your disposal, use them and return them in the same condition that you found them so that they can be used by other guests.
MEALS
DURING THE STAY
We offer meals to all our guests.
The men will take their meals in the refectory (dining room of the monks), while the women will take it in the dining room of the inn that the monk in charge will take them.
We ask for punctuality for meals so you have to be five minutes before the indicated time. If you plan not to eat any food, inform the host.

If you have problems with any food, we ask you to bring your own food that you can store in the refrigerator and heat it in the microwave.
