At most motels, you look out onto a carpark but the courtyard was such a peaceful place for a morning coffee. The Aurora itself was comfortable, clean and staff were pleasant and keen to help when asked. The adjacent Thai restaurant near the front door and the Oaken Cafe at the rear were handy for dinner and breakfast. ##### Ian Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Brad 28 Aug 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Total winner All good things to say about the Aurora on George.

The room was spacious with modern facilities and a super comfy bed. Location is excellent with lovely cafes and restaurants nearby. It was a 15 min stroll into central Dunedin and a similar distance to Emerson's Brewery, though you might want some extra time to stumble home😊. We very much enjoyed our stay at Aurora and do not hesitate in recommending it. ##### craig Stayed 1 night in Nov 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Janet Ho 8 Mar 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Good location, comfortable bed and very quiet ##### Janet Ho Stayed 1 night in Mar 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Michael 3 May 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Great location.

Appreciated the welcome gestures like being shown to our room where there were some home cooked biscuits. The property is in a great location with an internal garden that was peaceful and well kept. ##### Melanie Stayed 1 night in May 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Sue 8 Apr 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Everything about this motel was excellent.
