A warm reception is guaranteed when staying at St Monica House. A peaceful and friendly home away from home, the guest house is managed by Augustinian Sisters (Servants of Jesus and Mary) who live in the convent next door. The sisters welcome visitors to London to overnight at their well located and peaceful house of hospitality, while taking in the sights of the city.
Compared to similar properties in this expensive capital city, the rates here are comparatively low.
Guests of the sisters are invited to share the Eucharistic Liturgy with the community if they so wish. A good number of guests find a stay at St Monica House is a means of spiritual renewal and others enjoy the relaxed, friendly environment as they take in the tourist sights. As well as managing the guest house the sisters work directly with the local Portuguese and Filipino communities.
'Welcoming and offering hospitality are an essential part of being a community of Augustinians in service, in imitation of God who gives himself and welcomes us in Jesus Christ with an unconditional love.' (Constitutions 134)
Guests are required to be fully vaccinated against COVID19.
