Hotel Ella

4.0 star property
9.0 out of 10, Wonderful, (1001)
"I was in Austin for a heart ablation at St David's and had to wait an additional day after surgery. It is a beautiful and comfortable hotel. The staff was very attentive and amicable. We ate in the restaurant, and the food was very tasty. I only have 2 complaints, our TV didn't work during our stay, which is not a big deal I'm not a great fan of TV anyway. The other issue was I was stranded in the elevator a bit comical really. I managed to get the elevator to respond to move from the 2nd floor...

Fabulous, Tastful, And Fully Furnished Condo On Lake Travis Island Villa!!!

9.4 out of 10, Exceptional, (18)
"It was very quiet, the pool was wonderful and the view of the Colorado River from the pool area was amazing. It is a long way to get to anything, so if you are staying here to go to Austin, be prepared for a good hour drive. It is 30-45 minutes from anything. Lowe's market was a good place for wine, groceries and it was about 10 minutes away. The restaurant at the villa was not open at all while we were there, so there is NO on-site dining or bar because of the times/days we stayed. There was a...

What is the difference between a historic hotel and a heritage hotel?
These are quite similar. “Historic hotel” is a term often used in the US, while “heritage hotel” is often used in Asia and Europe.
