10/10 Excellent

Overall a great stay, only complaint is that I had gone to the front desk a few times and no one was ever there and I had to stand and wait for at least 10 minutes each time.
Cristina, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

The property is gorgeous and the staff is incredible. Caroline at the front desk gave us an excellent recommendations for places to eat and things to do. Max at the bar was friendly and made us feel welcome from the moment we walked in. We will be back for sure!

Nice, small, boutique hotel. Walkable to campus, AT&T conference center, many shops/places to eat. I always enjoy staying in west campus as a for Longhorn parent. Bed was comfy, good pillows.

The Ella is a great hotel- close to UT's campus. Rooms are nice and a good size. Overall, just has a great vibe .
lauren, 2-night trip

8/10 Good

This hotel is beautiful and quaint. We didn't try the restaurant because it was closed but noticed it had good reviews. The pool area was very cute. I loved that there was Nespresso in the room. The only complaint that I have is that there is required valet parking and the cost is $50 per night, which I think is very excessive. It is also inconvenient to have to request your car every time (although the valet staff was very quick in retrieving the car once it was requested). I would stay here again if I didn't have a rental car.

Maggie is the best!!!

Carolyn, 2-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Had a wonderful stay, in Austin for a concert at the Moody Center and Hotel Ella was conveniently located. The staff was courteous, helpful, and professional. We will stay again, but hopefully we book when there isn’t a wedding. Several amenities are not available to guests that are not guests of the wedding.
Patricia, 2-night trip

8/10 Good

It was a very nice stay. The front desk employees could be a little more friendly and attentive to guests.
Patrick, 5-night trip

Lovely hotel

Wonderful hotel, a 10 min walk from the conference centre. Cute pool and nice rooms.
Vanessa, 4-night trip

10/10 Excellent

A very positive experience from checking to check out. The only drawback is having to pay for parking on the premises.
Sandi, 2-night trip

As always the staff was amazing! My first choice when staying in Austin
Yoly, 1-night trip

4/10 Poor

This place is old, dirty and loud. The AC was so loud that if I didn’t have ear plugs. I would’ve changed rooms. We stayed here last year and it was similar. We tried again bc it’s so close to my daughter’s school and they had a good deal but no more!!!!! $50 valet which is pretty common but they had 1 person working so we waited so long to get our car. The app you are suppose to use wasn’t working so the valet guy argued with us and said he couldn’t fetch our car bc we might be trying to steal it. What?!?!? It was ridiculous. Soooooo many better options. The girl at check in wasn’t very friendly either. Actually none of the staff were. Stay away!!
