Religious accomodations

I've heard good things about staying in monastaries, convents. Is
there a book or other resource that lists these in europe. It'd be
great if there are reviews their too.

Any help?

You could also look up by Order, especially if you are looking for a
religious retreat. For example the OSB are at

There are also Orders listed at

Re: Religious accomodations

Thanks much for the help. This is great. Although the one that hits
the mark (Europes Monastery and Convent Guesthouses) doesn't seem to
have detailed information on the actual lodging.
