Reviews - What do our customers think?
One of our Preferred Monastery Lodging Guidebooks  Feb 12, 2010
We bought several monastery lodging guidebooks for our travels to Europe. Each guidebook was very helpful in its own way. We found this guidebook Europe's Monastery and Convent Guesthouses: A Pilgrim's Travel Guide to be one of our favorite resources, as it was the most updated and had current website addresses and email addresses. In addition, we found some monastery guidebooks to provide good travel information on how to reach each place while others didn't provide this helpful info. However, Europe's Monastery and Convent Guesthouses was one of the better books in providing directions on how to reach each place. We also really liked the "Where to Stay" section, which for us was one of the most useful as it described the acccommodations available at each place. Above all, we also really liked the spiritual and historical aspect of monastery life integrated into this guidebook.
 
Good subject, poor execution  Apr 30, 2009
Not a well-organized book.

Map of Italy shows no monasteries in Sicily (though there's plenty of room), while map of "Italy South" shows two, one of which, "Gibilmanna" on the map is listed under its real name "Convento Cappuccini" which is a bit difficult to guess. What's the point of a map if you must read the entire text to find a place listed on the map?

There is much useless filler material in this book such as how to get to Sicily by train (repeated verbatim for each monastery in Sicily). There is almost nothing on flights, ships, buses, cars.
