My partner and I have just returned from holiday in Croatia so I thought a quick review might be in order. We booked through Thomsons on-line and very efficient they were apart from the tickets not arriving (no fault of their's, apparently), we picked them up at the airport. The Sol Auroura itself was quite a good hotel perhaps marred... more

We have just returned from a lovely weeks holiday at The Sol Aurora, Umag. Here is our experience of the hotel. On arrival, we were greeted by friendly reception staff who supplied us with all the information we required. The hotel was nicely decorated and spotlessly clean. Our room, likewise, with an efficient maid service being provided daily. The location... more

I agree with the previous review dont believe all you read. all you need on holiday is a clean room and friendly staff, this place has it! yes the food is repetitive but if you dont stuff your face every night with everything that is out you will be able to have something different! There were no large groups here... more

My girlfriend and I booked this stay over 5 months ago, and as our visit got closer we became concerned at the negative reviews, however dont believe a word of them. My girlfriend and I have high standards and this hotel is on the ' we are going back list' Like any stay you will have your niggles, and some... more

Want a bargain over some of the other European beach places and not have to fly there -- that is if you live in Europe or are already otherwise traveling there? Then go to Croatia and if you don't want to drive too far -- with the intent of staying on the beach? Sol Aurora in Umag is the place... more

If you enjoy large unfriendly hotels then this is the place for you! The hotel staff were unhelpful to the point of rudeness, with the exception of one bar man, I can honestly say I didn't get a smile, please or thank you out of anyone all week. The hotel reception was probably the most offensive. When we checked out,... more

Very dissapointing stay. Although we expected a certain old Yugoslavia (70's) style hotel experience we didn't expect a drop in those standards. Food was dreary and repetitive, hotel staff were extremely unapproachable and unhelpful. Entertainment was dull and noisy. In addition to this the resort, Umag, is a pretty charmless place. Half a day is enough to see its 'highlights'... more

I have just returned from a 2 week stay at the Aurora Hotel in Umag. Before booking I read previous reviews, which persuaded me to book my holiday. How disappointed I was by the present reality of the hotel. The flight to Pula was late in arriving which meant I arrived late at the hotel. I was given a room... more

This is a truly 4* hotel. It is located 3km from Umag, very close to the tennis court. Still, the access in the city is easy and cheap if you use the local tourist train. Its a rather big hotel, about 300 rooms nicely furnished with big terraces. Service is good and the hotel crew speak alot of foreign languages.... more
