The hotel offers an attractive, historical atmosphere, but without concessions to modern comfort. You will feel the rich history everywhere within the thick monastery walls, like in the authentic convent garden, the hotel rooms and the function rooms. Let yourself be surprised by the many possibilities the monastery has to offer.

All hotel rooms have been decorated in a taut and modern design. This design corresponds to the historical details which are still visible in the whole building.
