The Motley Hotel Richmond has joined the Tapestry Collection by Hilton, marking the debut of the brand in Australia.

The hotel, which opened 18 months ago, is located in the historic Federation Terraces of Bridge Road in the Melbourne suburb of Richmond. It is housed in a building made famous by seamstress Mary Parker.

Celebrated for its distinctly Melbourne vibe, its interiors are a fusion of bold design, playful textures, and a deep connection to the city’s creative heart.
