The Cullen is part of the Art Series hotel group, occupying a site on Commercial Road in Prahran and taking its name and design cues from Australian artist Adam Cullen, whose bold, irreverent artwork features throughout the public spaces and guest rooms. The location sits close to Chapel Street's fashion boutiques and the Prahran Market, one of Melbourne's long-running fresh produce markets, with South Yarra and Windsor stations both within reach by tram.

Art Series hotel inspired by artist Adam Cullen, near Chapel Street and the Prahran Market.

The Cullen is part of the Art Series hotel group, occupying a site on Commercial Road in Prahran and taking its name and design cues from Australian artist Adam Cullen, whose bold, irreverent artwork features throughout the public spaces and guest rooms. The location sits close to Chapel Street's fashion boutiques and the Prahran Market, one of Melbourne's long-running fresh produce markets, with South Yarra and Windsor stations both within reach by tram. Rooms are offered as Studio, One-Bedroom Suite and Loft categories, several with private balconies, styled with the same art-forward sensibility as the rest of the hotel rather than a conventional corporate look. Leisure facilities include an outdoor pool and a fitness centre, along with an on-site restaurant and bar. Service suits leisure travellers and creatives drawn to the art theming and the inner-southeastern suburbs' cafe and fashion culture, with Prahran Market's Tuesday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday trading days a highlight for self-caterers, and Chapel Street's restaurants and nightlife within easy walking distance.
