Since opening its doors, The Motley Hotel has been celebrated for its distinctly Melbourne vibe—an artistic fusion of bold design, playful textures, and a deep connection to the city’s creative heart. Rising from the historic Federation Terraces of Bridge Road, the hotel pays homage to Melbourne's storied past, standing on the site once graced by the famed seamstress Ms. Mary Parker.
With 80 bespoke rooms, each thoughtfully curated to reflect Melbourne's vibrant arts scene, The Motley Hotel provides a unique haven for travellers. Beyond the rooms, guests enjoy access to an array of amenities, including offsite gym access just a short stroll from the hotel, room service, and exclusive packages that reflect the local lifestyle. The hotel’s distinctive style, much like the patchwork of patterns it is named for, weaves together historical charm with modern comforts, inviting guests into a stay that feels both vibrant and nostalgic.
“The Motley Hotel is a prime example of a Tapestry Collection by Hilton, a gathering of independent hotels, each with a distinct, individually vibrant personality. Its spirited food and beverage offerings have swiftly become firm favourites with locals, and aptly capture the city’s vibrant food scene with a menu that showcases Melbourne’s seasonal produce and the finest local suppliers. Rooted in stylish design, the property also offers guests authentic experiences and prime access to further explore the surrounding locale,” said Alexandra Jaritz, senior vice president, Brand Management, Asia Pacific, Hilton.
The Motley Hotel delivers an exceptional Melbourne dining experience through its standout venues: Ms Parker and Threads Rooftop Bar. Each space has swiftly become a local favourite, capturing the city’s vibrant food scene with a menu that showcases Melbourne’s rich seasonal produce and the finest local suppliers.

Geoff Brady, owner, The Motley Hotel Richmond, Tapestry Collection by Hilton, said, "As a proud Richmond local, I’m thrilled that The Motley Hotel offers such a prime location for visitors. With just four tram stops to the MCG, guests can catch all the action from AFL games and major cricket matches. A short walk will take you to AAMI Park, home of the Melbourne Storm and Melbourne Victory, where rugby and soccer fans get their fix. And for tennis lovers, both Rod Laver Arena and Margaret Court Arena host the world-renowned Australian Open. These iconic venues also transform into stages for the biggest concerts and events throughout the year. It’s a prime spot for anyone wanting to experience Melbourne's vibrant sports and entertainment culture.”
