Monasteries/Abbies/Convent stays?

Posted by the-montser@reddit | budapest | View on Reddit | 6 comments

Are there any monasteries, abbeys, convents, or other similar places that offer lodging in Budapest? My wife are Catholic and prefer to stay at places like this when we travel for a number of reasons. I have been having a difficult time finding any online, but I wanted to ask here because it is often hard to find them online anyway. TIA.

What you might be looking for is usually going under the name of zarándokszállás (pilgrim's lodgings) in Hungarian, worth to look for that. There are some really nice ones, but usually in the countryside. There is a low capacity new one in Budapest, which is literally in the forest, at the foot of the highest point of the city!

I do believe some churches have their lodgings, but I failed to find those online.

You can also look at lelkigyakorlatos házak (retreat lodgings). Here are some, most of them, again, in the countryside:

Of those, Szent Arnold is in Budapest: https://www.szentarnold.hu/

It's quite far out of the center.

This place seems to be run by some kind of religious organization in Esztergom: https://www.hoteladalbert.hu/index.php/hu/

Esztergom is a nice city itself, about a 1 hour train ride from Budapest.
