As if it was floating on a cloud – anchoring on the ground of reality with its stone stairs rimmed with tarnished sculpures – the monastery towers over the late village of Sopronbánfalva the edges of Sopron. The monastery now operates as a hotel and restaurant. The rooms and halls, which continue to live on as hotel rooms along the cloister, instantly convey the rhythm of monastic life, conveying its "silence," while at the same time they transform the cultural heritage of half a century into tangible reality.
