Monastère des Augustines
Monastère des Augustines
Le Monastère des Augustines, a health and wellness centre, is a former monastery from the 17th century that has been completely restored. Two room types are available; the “Authentic” rooms, restored in a monastic spirit, are former Augustinian cells with shared bathrooms. The “Contemporary” rooms are modernly furnished while respecting the heritage character of the place. These rooms have a private bathroom. To promote relaxation and tranquility, there are no televisions or telephones in the rooms. Guests will find one on the upper floor in the living area, where computers are also available. Free WiFi is available. Guests can also take a self-guided tour of the museum or join a guided tour for an additional fee. Le Vivoir offers healthy, local, and organic food such as vegetarian, fish, poultry, and meat dishes. Breakfast is taken in silence, a morning ritual in harmony with the site’s historic vocation. A boutique and a take-out counter are also available. Guests will enjoy the wide range of overall health care and the daily program of activities.
Couples particularly like the location — they rated it 9.6 for a two-person trip.
