Where Boutique Hotel Aurora is, and why the location matters
Boutique Hotel Aurora is at Via dell’Apollinare 3, in Spoleto’s historic center and next to the Roman Theater. Umbria’s tourism board describes a 12th-century building, once a Franciscan convent, built into the town’s Roman walls. It opened in 1957 as Pensione Aurora, founded alongside the Festival dei Due Mondi (Festival of the Two Worlds), and was fully renovated in 2021.
The walking is short: Piazza del Duomo is about a 5-minute walk (500 m / 550 yards), and the Ponte delle Torri aqueduct about 13 minutes (1.1 km / 0.7 miles). The 21 rooms are each decorated differently, and a private spa with a mini hydromassage pool and a Finnish sauna is unusual at this size. Plan around two limits: there is no elevator and no on-site parking.
Getting there
- From Perugia Airport (PEG): Sant’Egidio is about a 47-minute drive as listed.
- By train: Spoleto Station is about a 22-minute walk as listed; a taxi is easier with luggage.
- By car: no on-site parking is listed, so ask the hotel where to leave the car before you arrive.
- Arrival times: check-in runs from 3:00 to 10:00 p.m., with no after-hours check-in.

Who it suits, and who should look elsewhere
A good fit if you want a small, characterful base inside Spoleto, like a spa session after sightseeing, and plan to explore on foot. A free buffet breakfast is listed, served from 7:30 to 9:30 a.m.
Look elsewhere if stairs are a problem, since upper floors are reached by stairs only, or you are arriving after 10:00 p.m. Pets are not allowed, drivers need a parking plan, and the listing says payment is by Visa or Mastercard only, with no cash.
