Hotel itself is fine, but if you have a rental car, do NOT park in its lot. Impossible to get out. Not sure how safe it si to park on the street as staff told us not to, but its parking lot is brutal. Try not to get a room near its parking lot as you will hear people shouting instructions to each other trying to squeeze his car out (like we did)

Everything was bad. The hotel manager assured us we would have adjoining rooms, but this wasn't the case, and he never showed up to explain what had happened or to respond to the many problems I will mention below. The room was bad in general. The sheets were stained, and the pillows had a strong smell of damp. The air conditioning never worked. We spent two terrible nights practically unable to sleep because of the heat. Far from repairing the air conditioning, they made it worse and it was leaking water into the room, flooding it and making a lot of noise as it dripped. They didn't clean the room properly, and they didn't provide soap or towels. Hot water never came out of the shower, even though they claimed to have repaired the problem. Overall, it was a terrible experience. The hotel is run by unprofessional, rude, and incompetent people, especially the manager.

Nos encantó La Aurora

Nos encantó absolutamente todo de nuestra estancia corta en La Aurora: el hotel, la habitación, el servicio, la comida, el ambiente encantador, e incluso la entrada, que nos pareció simplemente espectacular. Durante nuestro fin de semana largo en Yucatán, pasamos la primera y última noche en Valladolid (en dos hoteles diferentes), y podemos decir sin duda que este fue el hotel que más nos gustó de todo el viaje. Una experiencia maravillosa que recomendamos sin reservas.

We had a great stay. Staff were very helpful and the location is perfect for walking to the city center. We also loved the rooftop small pools & restaurant. We never had a problem with noise, and we were able to park our car in the enclosed lot, but keep in mind it’s VERY small and probably only good for a compact car.

Basic hotel, measure your expectations

Best thing about the hotel is the central location. Self-parking is easy and staff are friendly. Otherwise this is a basic hotel. Rooms are small and not especially comfortable, OK for a night or two, and certainly not for more than two people. The pool gets little direct sunlight and is uncomfortably cold at all times. Wifi service is terrible - doesn’t work in the room and not much better in the lobby. Price reflects these notes so measure expectations accordingly.

The Aurora is a well-located and well-priced hotel. It is simple and lacks luxuries, but is clean and reliable. We arrived three hours late, after 1am, but the agent was waiting for us and was pleasant and prompt. We will choose the Aurora again.

leaking ceilings and no coffee in morning

heavy rains and your ceiling / roof is leaking - leaked onto 1 of the 2 beds - so we moved onto the other bed and notified person @ desk. They did not give us a discount.
Your rooms are very dark !
Last visit we had a nice breakfast on roof-top ????? Appears you don't have coffee or breakfast now ?

Nice rooftop area. Beautiful tile. It took a long time to check in. We stayed in the Jr Suite. It was small and the beds were uncomfortable. There was one towel in room for 3 people and when we asked for more, they left 1 cleaning towel by our door. We were wrongly accused for another hotel guest's actions. Manager was yelling and rude. He made us checkout early for something we did not do.
Not worth it for the price.

Poor Communication

Very disappointed in the communication about breakfast. Your site says 100 peso. We were told NO breakfast available 1st morning because we didn't inform the front desk night before. 2nd morning, we were told breakfast was down the street at other hotel. Got there and they charged us 150 pesos. Then charged me extra dor a second cup of coffee 50 pesos and a very small glass of water 50 pesos. Ripped off, poor communication. And lots of confusion on time frames of pool and roof top pools and being open vs closed.

Great price point

The hotel was conveniently located in the town center and offered parking to make it easier. Breakfast was included and was delicious as well. The staff was very friendly and accomodating. My only gripe is the water temperature was very difficult to control. Some days the water was piping hot and the other day it was freezing cold, no matter what I tried. However, the hotel was in a gtreat location to drive to the many different cenotes in the area.

I liked the colonial architecture, the size of the room and the easy walk to the centre, but the pool was empty with men working on it so there was some noise and we weren’t able to swim on site, which was a major factor in booking the place. A male concierge was a chain smoker and as reception was only some ten yards from our room and the external sitting out area we suffered from the smell. On the last day we had no hot water. We were told that they had an arrangement with a nearby hotel to use their pool, but had they told us this before we arrived we would have cancelled, which was probably why they didn’t tell us.

Location was great. Close to the main square. Front desk had waters/pop/beers for sale. Parking was extremely tight; we parked on the street in front with no issues. We had a room farthest from front desk so wifi did not work in room.

Great property in the heart of the city. However I would advice against having a room facing the street as it's quite busy hence noisy in the evening /morning.
One downside for the hotel would be the bottle of water that's usually complimentary but we had to pay.

Friendly Hotel Near Center of valladolid

Friendly hotel near center of Valladolid. Breakfasts are extra, but they're worth it -- the rooftop dining area has a great view of the city. Service is friendly.While I was there, the adjacent park had a great Candelaria festival with food, church services, and entertainment.

The hotel is close to main square and 4/5 blocks from the ADO bus station. Hotel is attractive colonial building, basic. Swimming pool is in the centre on the ground floor, not much sun around the area. On tbe rooftop , there are 2 sun loungers (2 so called Jacuzzis.) They are just very basic, 2 very large baths. There not jacquizzis. They are under cover so sun doesnt get to them so the water is cold.
Rooms are ok, basic but clean.
Staff apart from a girl karina (who was helpful) are not friendly at all. I paid for a small, family run hotel and you usually find them more friendly but certainly not in this case.

Lack of a dresser or drawers of any sort would be a pain if you were staying longer tgan a couple days. Could also use some attention to maintenance, bed was very loud , bathroom did not quite close and door dragged hard on the floor opening and closing. Enjoyed our time but would probaly look elsewhere if we go back.

La Aurora Hotel Colonial is a charming small hotel very close to the central square in Valladolid. The rooms are lovely, the air conditioning works well, there are sufficient outlets for charging devices, the towels are huge, the bathroom is lovely with beautiful painted ceramic sinks, and check-in and out was very easy. They also have off-street parking in a secure lot. There is an outdoor pool on the ground level as well as two hot tubs on the roof. You can enjoy an a la carte breakfast on the roof which has views of the rooftops of the city, and the huge cathedral. I was only there for one night, so I don't have more to add, but I will be staying there again!!

The room was spacious, clean, and appointed with a TV, internet connection, in-room safe, and the necessary toiletries. The location is excellent, and also adjacent to a cul de sac park. A hot shower and water pressure are not 'givens' in Mx, but it was abundant and consistent regarless of time of day here. The hotel pool and roof top deck are further bonuses.

We love to stay at the Aurora. It is our go-to for a night in Valladolid. It is close to Centro (two blocks) and has a lovely little pool. It is a historic property with old pasta floors, iron railings and a nice courtyard. The staff are excellent and the rooms are clean. The property could use a few more comforts. The beds are hard and the pillows harder. The sheets are rough. Still, for a no frills, basic hotel, this one is a great choice.

Excellent central location. Beautiful old building with modern comforts including good air conditioning and a pool. A decent breakfast is available on the rooftop terrace, though they only serve instant coffee. Our only negative was that the street side rooms are very noisy. It kept us up much of the night. When we looked into changing to a quieter room, they weren’t very helpful.

Good hotel in centre of town

We stayed with our two teenagers - two double beds which worked out fine.
Small pool which was good for cooling down at the end of the day. Friend,y and helpful staff who spoke good English.
Two blocks away away from the centre of town which was a five min walk and also was only 5 mins from the ado bus terminal (we used buses to get around the wh9e time)
Excellent eateries in town especially the hotel Mexicana and all very reasonably priced.
Swam in cenote Zaki as well which is worth a visit - if you see my goggles on a rock please bring them back to UK! :-)

We were so happy to be at La Aurora. It was clean and comforatable, the air conditioning was great and the staff was very helpful and gave great recommendations for tours and dining! We were traveling with 8 year old twins who loved the pool and the courtyard design of the hotel. We also loved the cafe on the roof while eating breakfast, it had a cool breeze in the morning. The kids thought it was cool to have hot tubs on the roof, too.

Choose your room

I was a single male traveler, and I wanted cleanliness, simplicity, a touch of individuality, air conditioning, and a bath room with hot water.I would recommend the hotel even though I changed rooms for the second night. I arrived late from the airport and was given room 14 - a single room on the west side of the building on a street that got noisy about 5 AM. I recommend a room on the east side, There was a lovely interior (small) courtyard with a pleasant pool. Breakfast on the roof was nice 6 blocks from the bus station.

Nice Hotel Near City Center

The hotel looks like an old colonial building and is very attractive. The rooms are large, well decorated and clean. The air conditioning was a bit hard to control and a small problem but the good value of the room more than makes up for a bit of inconvenience. There are plenty of good restaurants nearby that also are a good value.

Don't book this hotel.

This hotel maybe was a nice hotel in the past. Right now it's old and run down. Nothing is in a good shape. There was no running water in the bathroom, the AC did not work. Water was dropping from the wall into the lobby. The staff was very rude.
We booked the room as a non refundable prepaid room. Now we are in touch with expedia and the hotel to get the money back. The one from the staff yelled to my wife and me on the phone when we explained him, that we are in touch with expedia and that we don't want to pay for a stay at this place. The whole booking and that the run down hotel still offers rooms seems to be fraud. No hotel can have you stay in a dirty, run down room, without running water and want you to pay a lot of money for this.
Even the cab driver was wondering, that he had to take somebody to this hotel. He thought, that it was not offering rooms to guests for a year anymore.

The Aurora Colonial Hotel in Valladolid, Mexico

If visiting Valladolid in the heart of the Yucatan of Mexico, I'd highly recommend the Aurora Colonial hotel, just two blocks from the main plaza on Calle 42. It's two stories of large, comfortable rooms centered around a clean, cold pool that no one could resist after a day of mind- and body-punishing humidity that defies description (for heaven's sake, admire the pyramids without feeling the need to climb them!). The hotel is beautifully appointed, the air conditioning superb, and a short, traffic-free collonade leads to the Plaza Candelaria, a delightful and quiet place to spend a few hours sitting and watching the world go by. Through Hotels.com I got an excellent price for a 3-night stay.

Good location

Basic, but very clean and comfortable room. We were on 2nd floor, room 22 and could hear some noise from kitchen and breakfast area early morning.
Nice to have breakfast ( not included) on roof terrace.
Swimming pool is a nice touch, jacuzzi on roof not in operation but could be used a a plunge pool, no evening bar service on roof terrace.
Staff were all friendly and helpful, limited English spoken.
Short walk to the main square, Zaci cenote, and also to the ADO bus station.
Took a 2nd class, 7.15am bus out to Chichén Itza, arrives there just after 8am, beats the tour groups.
Enjoyed our stay and would highly recommend.

Great hotel In a nice town. Location is perfect. Room is large and had two beds. I had the room close to the street. Room was not noisy for me. I slept well. Pillow covers were not so clean. Still I think you should try it and use it. It is a nice hotel, not expensive, and confortable. I would go back there if I am back in the town.

The facilities were good. The water in the pool or hot tub are warm but it was very hot so I didn't need it. The rooftop is great and you should use it.

Great roof terrace, disappointing rooms

Great roof terrace with cold-tubs - unusual for a budget hotel & a nice treat before sunset to cool off. Breakfast also served on the roof (not included). Good value for money but rooms hot & noisy - didn't get a great night's sleep on either of two nights. Outwardly well presented - lovely old tiles & plants, but skimped on details for a really comfort. There were no tea or coffee making facilities in my sparse room & there was a thick plastic sheet on the bed under the ill fitting sheet. Generally clean, but remains of dead bugs high up on bathroom walls. Staff friendly but seemed a little overstretched. Good budget option for a night or two.
