Staying in a monastery can be a very fulfilling experience, if undertaken in the right frame of mind. Just remember, this is not a hotel. The monks offer hospitality as part of their vows, in exchange for a small donation and a reasonable amount of respect. In Italy Online is not a travel agent or a hotel rep, so we don't have lists of hotels. This is a selection of a few accommodations we love and recommend.
