The Motley Hotel, a boutique lifestyle hotel with an urban edge, seamlessly weaves into the ornate tapestry of Melbourne’s culturally eclectic community. Located at 205 Bridge Road, Richmond, The Motley is an 8-level, 80 key, five-star beauty that pays homage to the building’s former occupant: a quaint yet popular local seamstress and costumier, Ms Mary Parker.
Developed by Amber Property Group and managed by La Vie Hotels & Resorts, one of Asia Pacific’s leading and fastest- growing independent hotel management companies; The Motley combines an amalgamation of industry, arts, diverse styles, tastes and sounds from bustling Richmond. With rooms designed by interior design studio CHADA, guests are greeted by a uniquely textural experience from the moment they arrive.
The Motley General Manager Jeremy Nordkamp spoke to The Hotel Conversation during the hotels opening week, "We did a soft launch for our close friends, family and business partners to test the flow of our service for both hotel and restaurant. We’re incredibly grateful to have a supportive community we are seeing more of on a daily basis for coffees or dine-ins at Ms Parker Restaurant. Our Motley crew is getting into the groove of things, and it’s really nice to see their personalities shine."
Hotel General Manager Jeremy Nordkamp added, “the opening of The Motley marks a significant milestone for Amber Property Group, as well as the revitalisation of Bridge Road that’s seeing tremendous change. We are incredibly proud to be creating new jobs within our community and further supporting local industry and trade through our partnerships.
The Motley delivers a new level of sophistication to Richmond, without compromising Melbourne’s eclectic and authentic feel, by creating a destination for both travellers and Richmond residents to gather, unwind and enjoy a hyper local dining experience.
We look forward to further connecting and collaborating with our neighbours to showcase the very best of Melbourne’s inner city."
