Continuing the long established Church tradition of providing accommodation for pilgrims to holy places, Domus Australia is much more than a place to rest, it is a religious and cultural centre for pilgrims to Rome.

As well as offering very comfortable accommodation for pilgrims, it provides a unique Catholic pilgrimage experience, with daily Mass in English and an "information centre" providing the opportunity for visitors to Rome to learn more about the history of the Church and the many places of religious significance they should see while in Rome.
