The Aurora Hotel was a last minute choice, but we were so happy with that choice. We were off the main street just enough to avoid uncomfortable noises. The building has been remodeled into a fresh, ultra modern hotel with attention given to make the stay enjoyable. Keurig beverage makers made teas and coffees to match various guest choices. The...

For my first trip to Catalina getting to stay at the Aurora made it even better. I arrived to the island in the morning for a trip I won through work for a one night stay. My girlfriend and I explored the island and then headed to the Aurora. We were greeted by the friendly staff and they held my... More

A beautiful hotel. Rooms clean, comfortable,, modern and staff extremely friendly. Laurie and Diana were wonderful. The upper deck overlooking the harbor and town was great for a adult beverage after a busy day. After living in Ca for 30 years, and never taking the 26 mile trip it was a great experience. The Aurora will not disappoint! Paul &... More

They really went above and beyond and have all been so nice and helpful. Thank you Diana, Rock and Richard I truely appreciate you exceeding my expectations and I can't wait to see you in a couple of weeks.

Diana gave us an exceptional deal and even upgraded us to an ocean-view room. We were impressed with all staff and amenities, which included a delicious continential breakfast. We hope to get... More
