The Mansion at Judges' Hill will close for a month to transform into Hotel Ella, with renovations from Michael Hsu Office of Architecture. Chef Scott Mechura, who joined the hotel in March will stay on at the luxury hotel's rebranded restaurant, Goodall's, named for the mansion's original owner, Goodall Wooten. Per a press release, it'll be a "sophisticated neighborhood concept which will feature top food purveyors from Austin and beyond." [Eaterwire/Statesman]
