About us

Explore ATX like a local at the first AC Hotel in Austin. Located in the University of Texas Campus District near the State Capitol, Dell Medical Center, and in a trendy part of town made to explore on foot, bike, or electric scooter. Offering contemporary design with meaningfully selected decor, the AC Hotel Austin has a vibe that is sophisticated, yet decidedly uncomplicated with natural hues, richly textured finishes, and carefully curated pieces from Austin's thriving art community. Enjoy an elevated dining experience at our upscale neighborhood restaurant & bar or grab a bite at the walk-up streetside Burger Bar, the second location from the Congress Ave staple. Energize your day with a European-inspired continental breakfast and unwind in the evening at Bar AC featuring tapas-style dishes, live music, and signature cocktails and sangria. From check-in to check-out, carefully tailored elements like free WiFi and mini-fridges help you achieve harmony as soon as you arrive at The AC Hotel Austin.

Hotel Ella
Austin
In 1878, Thomas Dudley Wooten, one of the founders of the University of Texas, purchased the land on which Hotel Ella now sits. Wooten’s son, Goodall, moved into the home on the property in 1900 with his new wife, Ella, who oversaw its transformation into a Greek revival mansion. The mansion underwent an extensive renovation in 2013, and now offers the perfect balance between modernity and a rich history rooted in the fabric of the neighborhood and the university.
