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!

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.

If you know you will need your car before 7am, make sure the front desk has the clicker to let you out of the parking lot, or you will sit there until valet shows up AND still get charge $50 for your time.

The place is beautiful with great spacious rooms. The front desk clerk was very helpful. The valet guys were awesome. The only issues we has was the AC struggled to keep up in the restaurant. Felt bad for the waiter as he was drenched. He kept apologizing and said they put a ticket in to repair. We skipped dinner there after the first night. Breakfast was not as hot. Also a few of the waiters seemed to be having bad days as they were not a s friendly. Overall we would stay again due to room and valet was top notch but plan our evenings at another restaurant.
