Updated October 28, 2026.

Convent is a hotel in a former Benedictine monastery in Ankaran. Rooms overlook the park or the atrium with its fountain.

Double and triple rooms each measure 20 m². Double rooms have a double bed, while triple rooms have separate beds. You can also book a double room for single occupancy. For two guests wanting more space, the 61 m² Suite has one bedroom and a bathroom with a shower. Pets are not allowed in the hotel.

The Monastery of St Nicholas dates from the 11th century, when it was a branch of Venice’s San Nicolò al Lido monastery. The last monk left in 1641. More than a century later, the Madonizza family from Koper bought the property. During the period of the Illyrian Provinces, the monastery served as a military hospital. Today’s hotel building surrounds an inner courtyard with a fountain dating from 1835.

Convent is part of the coastal Adria Ankaran resort. Alongside your overnight stay, you can choose half-board, with breakfast and dinner in the hotel restaurant. For swimming outside the summer season, the resort has an indoor pool with heated seawater. The outdoor pool opens seasonally.
