Attended a wedding that was held at Hotel Ella and also stayed on site! Great location, fun pool and the room we had overlooking the pool was nice. The front desk staff, Austii and Noah were very helpful as well! Only downside- better AC needed in main lobby and the overnight valet parking is expensive but the valet guys were great!

Great boutique hotel, close to the University. Rooms are big and updated, staff were great. My only complaint would be the $59 USD a day parking fee. This seemed very excessive, and while it was valet, that was the only option. Other than that, it was a great stay

They charged me $35 a day as additional fee. This is being dishonest. They did not have body lotion- a standard for alll hotels I’ve stayed in. The ac was not effective in the bathroom. The room had a lot of angles that made it easy to hit your head at night.

Great location and cool property. Will definitely stay here again. Would recommend putting tile or engineered wood under and around the sink area rather than carpet. Other than that, Hotel Ella gets an A+

The room is spacious and very clean. The cozy little bar in the hotel serves light meals, and the bartender was personable and fun to listen to as she shares her stories. They also offer valet service, which was fantastic. We felt very comfortable and relaxed, and I would highly recommend Hotel Ella if you're in Austin, TX.
