On this Room 65 of A Room With A View, we sit down with the brilliant Richard Crawford from Marriott Hotels. Richard’s journey from growing up in Tasmania and working in the family business, to building one of Australia’s finest boutique hotels, The Henry Jones, is nothing short of inspiring.
He’s a true hotelier — passionate, creative, and deeply connected to place and people. We loved hearing his reflections on family, business, friendship and what it means to build something lasting and meaningful in our ever-evolving industry.

Welcome to A Room With A View Live from No Vacancy. In today’s episode, I’m joined by Michael Donnelly — a man who’s lived more lives than most of us could dream of. From fronting rock ’n’ roll bands to building stages for some of the biggest acts in the world, Michael now leads the charge in one of the hospitality industry’s most exciting niches: Japanese sleeping pods.
It’s a wide-ranging conversation about creativity, reinvention, and what it really takes to stand out in business and in life. Michael’s energy and perspective make this a truly memorable chat with someone who’s as innovative as he is down-to-earth.
