    Great space, experienced crew - definitely recommended. My wife and I chose Motel Studios as a dry hire to have our wedding - ceremony, wedding breakfast, party - all in the same place. The arches with the exposed brick make for a beautiful space, and the fact that two different arches are next to each other but separate helps switching between the three parts of the wedding easy and seamless. The crew are experienced and helpful, guiding us through our options at every step. The execution on the day was flawless, and they communicated with all our suppliers with great speed and without us having to coordinate among them. All in all we are very happy we chose Motel Studios!

    I recently attended a TikTok event at Motel Studios, and it was an amazing experience! The venue was vibrant and creatively designed, providing the perfect backdrop for content creation. The staff were incredibly welcoming and helpful, ensuring everything ran smoothly throughout the event. The amenities were top-notch, with plenty of space for networking and collaboration. I loved the various themed areas that made for unique photo and video opportunities. It really captured the fun and energetic spirit of the TikTok community. Overall, Motel Studios is a fantastic venue for events. I can’t wait to return for more creative gatherings!
