The hotel is beautiful. The rooms surround a large quad with a fountain. And the hotel is only a 100m from Parque Central and hence close to many restaurants. But it is a pricey option, and you can get the same comfort for a much lesser price if you are prepared to stay a little further from the centre of... More

We stayed 5 nights at Hotel Aurora and the staff was extremely helpful in assisting us with booking various trips. We were there during Holy week and though the city was busy the hotel had beautiful gardens to come back to get away from the crazy streets and relax. There was some noise, but it didn't bother us at all.... More

We stayed at this hotel last week. We enjoyed our first 2 nights so much we canceled our other hotel and stayed here an 2 additional nights after returning from Lake Attitlan. Unfortunately, we had to stay our last night at another hotel because Hotel Aurora was booked due to Semana Santa. The price was reasonable and the rooms and... More

We recently spent 10 days in Antigua, Guatemala in the Hotel Aurora. This is the original hotel built in Antigua. It has been updated wonderfully with sound deadening windows, modern baths,and room decoration. The garden in this small, one story hotel is beautiful, full of wonderful flowers and is very well maintained. The full veranda provides ample, comfortable conversation areas,... More

There is a very nice garden and the furniture is tasteful. Julia at reception was very helpful.It irritates me a bit when reviewers say the staff speaks good English; they do indeed speak good English but why should we expect them to? When visitors come to our countries from Spanish speaking countries do our countries have an expectation that hotel... More

The location is nearly perfect with a convenient 5 minute walk to Central Park and a 10 minute walk to the Market. The staff speaks good English. It is gated the entire time at the entrance, but staff quickly buzzes vacationers in. The old building has thin walls and a faux ceiling. This makes the stay very noisey and loud.

We love returning to Hotel Aurora. The charm is its classic ambiance. Yet, rooms and baths are carefuly and tastfully updated.The location is across the street from Dona Maria Gordillo with sweets never experienced elsewhere. It is next door to Isaiah, the jewelry designer, who custom made my ring. It is down the block from some really quality shops, restaurants,bars.... More

Very comfortable, quiet central courtyard, adequate breakfast, BUT, we made reservations arriving and departing Antigua and despite prior payment and confirmation the guaranteed rooms were occupied on arrival and reservation was not honored on departure necessitating a scramble to find rooms elsewhere. Also no hot water in room. Another "sorry"Try Casa Santa Domingo first. The extra $45 is an investment... More

We spent 6 nights here split between trips to Tikal and atitlan. I loved the colonial charm, the warm and helpful staff, and the great location. It's just a few minutes from the plaza and close to a lot of shops including an excellent local sweet shop across the street and choco museo few doors away. Close to a lot... More
