The view from the breakfast terrace at the Hotel Aurora, Verona.

A simple three-star hotel with a killer location overlooking the market of Piazza delle Erbe in Verona, Italy

For long it was location, location, location that had loyal guests returning to the Aurora. But after a refurbishing of all 18 guest rooms and ensuite bathrooms, it is the updated decor that brings them in as well. Nothing fancy, mind you—just the usual modern modular furnishings. But it is all fresh and new.—and then there's the view

Six doubles are blessed with views of one of the world's great squares, the Piazza delle Erbe and the white-umbrella stalls that make up the daily marketplace.

Consider yourself blessed if you snag the top-floor double (don't worry; there is an elevator) with a small balcony.

There's another terrace overlooking the mercato for the guests' use on the second floor, just above the breakfast room where the hotel's daily ample buffet is served.
