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.
