Yoga Weekend at Malgarten Monastery, Bramsche

Room reservations can be made by phone at Forum Kloster Malgarten. Please mention my name when calling.

In the half-timbered house—the guesthouse—the rooms are simply furnished and include a toilet and shower.
In the historic setting of the former convent building, the rooms have been renovated with greater attention to ecological standards, featuring hardwood floors, clay walls, modern bathroom fixtures, a shower, and a toilet. There are no TVs in the rooms, but Wi-Fi is available throughout the building.

Prices for two nights:

Single room in the guesthouse: 100€
Single room in the convent: 160€
Double room in the convent (2 people): 180€
1 triple room available upon request

Payment can be made on-site during your stay via debit or credit card, or it can be transferred when booking the room.

The seminar and conference chef will take care of our meals.
The cost for meals over 2 days is 52 euros per day, for a total of 104 euros, payable in cash on site.

There is also a shared kitchen with a large refrigerator.

If you have any food intolerances or special requests, please let me know when you register. We always plan to serve the group organic or regional vegetarian/vegan meals.
