The Spedale della Provvidenza di San Giacomo e San Benedetto Labre welcomes pilgrims , who are staying in Rome during an authentic pilgrimage “devotionis causa” on the Via Francigena or other pilgrimage ways, done either walking or on a bike. It’s located in the very heart of Trastevere (city centre), 30 minutes far from St. Peter’s Basilica. Our accommodation is offered by pilgrims and volunteers with a true pilgrimage spirit.
We offer donative hospitality to pilgrims holding a credential, for a maximum stay of two consecutive nights (one night if arriving in Rome by bicycle).
We welcome:
• Pilgrims who have reached Rome on foot, having walked at least the last 100 kilometers
• Pilgrims who have reached Rome by bicycle, having cycled at least the last 200 kilometers
It is essential for us to ensure that we host pilgrims only. The credential must always show the pilgrim’s full name, the stamps from the last stages of the journey, and the dates of previous accommodations.
Guests are asked to arrive in time to take part in the Foot Washing (Maundy) at 7:30 p.m.
From May 1st until the end of October, reservations can be made at the following address:

About us
We are pilgrims of the Confraternita di San Jacopo di Compostella . In years, we combined faith, study and historical research on pilgrimage, reconstructing the authentic itineraries of the ancient pilgrimages that did build Europe and Christianity. We have learned the christian fraternity from the hospitality we received ourselves: that’s why we want to offer it to pilgrims who are walking in Italy on the via Francigena and in Spain on the Cammino di Santiago.
