Beautiful boutique hotel

10.0

Wonderful experience! Arrived late with delayed flight and valet went inside and got me a cold flask of water for my bedside. Everyone was very friendly and room was large and air conditioning worked great. Very pretty grounds and perfect location. Such a cute place to stay in Austin!

It was fine.

Cleanliness and historic details.

Not comfortable poolside chairs at all. I actually hurt myself on one that collapsed.

Hotel Ella is a must stay

Oh my goodness! I don’t have enough words to express how much we loved our stay at Hotel Ella. We were in town for a wedding and picked this hotel for price and location. We were not disappointed! The Q/Q room was large enough for three women and our extensive luggage, the beds were comfortable and the room clean. My only room complaint was the bathroom mirror which was a bit like a funhouse and not very practical. The staff were incredible too! The bell staff were quick with our luggage. The first night we needed extra hangers, ice and towels. Austii and the gentleman at the front desk brought them and told us some of the hotel history. The next morning, we ordered room service. The lady that helped us was so accommodating of my sister’s many food allergies. They helped us figure out exactly what she could eat. The presentation was beautiful. She told us it was her second day - she’s a keeper! The next morning, we went to the restaurant for breakfast. Again, the food was great! Lemon poppy pancakes!! Kelly, our server, was fabulous. The property is beautiful and conveniently located near the UT campus, art museums and the capitol as well as so many other downtown attractions. We easily Ubered everywhere we went and could have scootered if desired. I will definitely be back if I find myself in Austin again. Thank you all for a wonderful stay!
