“Staying in a monastery dating back over 350-years is an experience in itself. Soaking up this place so rich in history and wisdom can only be soothing. Practicing yoga in the vaults, walking meditatively through the streets of Old Québec, visiting the museum (…) are all activities (…) designed to help you relax. Thank you for your warm hospitality and we look forward to seeing you soon!”
