Guest Reviews
Valet parking, reception service, and room size: excellent.
The rooms are only cleaned if you leave the hotel early. We removed the "do not disturb" sign at 10 am and the room was not cleaned.
The staff was excellent throughout the property. Genuinely friendly, professional, and helpful. The restaurant was also a highlight: good food, and great service. The front desk and parking team were equally welcoming and attentive.
Unfortunately, the room itself was well below what we expected from a four-star hotel. Our first room had a strong mold/musty smell, so we requested a change. The second room had the same issue, and the smell was strong enough that both of us needed allergy medication during the night. The AC was extremely loud, difficult to regulate, and blew directly toward the bed. The mattress and pillows were also very uncomfortable. These are fundamental comfort and cleanliness standards that any hotel room should meet.
Best hotel in Gainesville!! Super clean and secure, and the staff and valet are the absolute best!! I highly recommend this hotel and feel so lucky that they came to my rescue to accommodate me during a very difficult time. I love the Hotel Eleo!!!
Nothing - I LOVE HOTEL ELEO!!!
Stayed at Hotel ELEO for a medical consultation at Shands and couldn’t have been happier with the choice. Check‑in was smooth and efficient, and the hotel’s modern, striking appearance made a great first impression. Our room was spotless, comfortable, and genuinely impressive.
A huge plus: the complimentary shuttle to and from Shands and complimentary valet for Shands patients — an unexpected and very appreciated convenience.
Will definitely stay at Hotel ELEO on my next visit.
The property was minutes away from the dorms and very clean. The staff were nice. Valet was excellent. The room was amazing!!!! I will definitely be staying again.
The food. We ordered two sandwiches via room service with small Caesar and fries the price with added tip and delivery was $68. The food was lukewarm and the prime rib sandwich was gnarly. I was so tired from my drive up and from moving stuff to the dorm so we didn’t feel like going out. I definitely would not recommend the food. The rest of the hotel was amazing though, skip the food.
Well located and well maintained, nice staff.

My trip was to visit my gravely ill brother in UF Shands hospital. I had no idea Hotel Eleo offered such an amazing rate for patients and their families! It's so close to the hotel and very peaceful after a hectic and traumatic day at the hospital day after day. Everyone was so accommodating! I couldn't have asked for more!
The room was very big and clean and comfortable
the AC made too much noise at night and the pillows are too hard
OMG!! this hotel is fantastic!!
I would not stay anywhere else. 24 hrs. Shuttle across the street to UF Health Shands hospital, and within walking distance to the Cancer Center.
The rooms are gorgeous, I'm in 521 Lakeview, it's quiet. Spacious and the online pictures don't do it justice. Everything is beautiful!!
My son is in the hospital, I've been staying here at the hotel for 8 days. Talking the shuttle everyday to the hospital and back. Matt and all the valets are wonderful and so caring. My son was maybe going to be discharged today, Camilla and Amber,at the front desk and all the girls. We're so accommodating, if he was discharged or not I'd still have my room. They didn't give it to someone else. I know, no other hotel would be that accommodating. Plus the hospital owns this hotel ( I believe).
There is a SteakNShake within walking distance. But after having eaten at the hotels restaurant, why eat somewhere else? This is gourmet prepared. The "Onion Crusted Salmon" i think is the best dinner I've EVER had. It was so good I had it a 2nd time the next night. And now tonight is my last night (maybe), I'm going to have the Salmon again. If I ever have to come to Shands again for a family member, I would not stay anywhere else. It's so convenient, the rooms and hotel is immaculate plus the food is wonderful and most of all they are so accommodating.
Great hotel with a wonderful staff! Clean and modern in a great location. Espresso machines in the rooms are a definite plus!
Staff is amazing-love this hotel! Every single person goes above and beyond to make your stay enjoyable. Will stay here every time I come to Gainesville!
Muy nuevo y limpio
Todo estaba perfecto
Wonderful Experience!
Appreciated the Kindness, Respect & Friendliness of everyone:
1) “All” the Front Desk Clerks
2) The Valet Gentlemen
3) The Maids who served
Beautiful hotel! Very close to UF Health Shands Hospital
I had an early arrival for surgery the next day. We had a City View room, the View was not the greatest but We weren't there for the View. The staff is amazing! Hotel is very clean and the rooms are very large!
Great location! Immaculate rooms & facilities!!! Helpful staff. Our pup had a great outdoor space to walk. Breakfast in Covey Kitchen was very good & server made sure everything was great.
We were there because my husband had surgery early on Friday morning. I cannot say enough positive about the guys at valet parking. They were timely, helpful, and concerned about our welfare. I would return just for them.
