Religious Conversions: Renovated Monastery Resorts & More

2012-12-11

In recent years, many monasteries and convents have been reborn as hotels so luxuriously appointed that you might confess to feeling a little guilty about how their previous occupants had to live. But don’t fret. Many properties still remain close to their roots, offering less worldly appointments, helping nurture your spiritual needs while you travel, remaining tied into their natural surroundings.

Whether at the high end or the budget end, staying in religious structures is a way to connect travelers with a destination’s historical past.
