Top choice in Finger Lakes
This beautiful historic hotel is composed of four properties: the main Aurora Inn, built in 1833 and little changed on the outside since, with 10 lovely rooms and a splendid dining room; Rowland House with 10 more rooms; EB Morgan House with seven rooms; and Wallcourt Hall, the most modern of the designs, but with no lake views.
Pick up the hotel's excellent self-guided walking tour of the town.
