Accomodation

Valamo Monastery provides simple and peaceful accommodation for all who wish to spend a night or longer in a unique environment

Valamo Monastery provides simple and peaceful accommodation for all who wish to spend a night or longer in a unique environment. By staying in our monastery, you can get acquainted with the Orthodox Church and traditions - and unwind in peace and quiet. The tranquillity and stress-free atmosphere of the monastery supplies a much needed contrast to hectic everyday life.

All rooms are non-smoking and have either shared or private bathroom facilities. Some rooms have access to Wi-Fi, which is free of charge. None of the rooms have television or radio. 

Room rates include a generous buffet breakfast. During Christmas and Easter only all-inclusive packages are on offer, which include meals and programme.  

Silence in the monastery begins at 10 pm. The residents can then prepare for a good night’s sleep. Please note also the dress code for men and women visiting the monastery: knees and shoulders must be covered at all times.
