Home All Hotel Motel

A mid-century throwback with a wink and a wobble.

Hotel Motel is a casual sentence-case script inspired by the hand-painted motel signs of 1950s America. Picture the kind you'd spot through a bug-smeared windshield as AM radio hums and the desert stretches for miles.

Created by legendary illustrator Travis Price (Pixies, Converse, Marvel), this font captures that perfect blend of laid-back looseness and designer precision. It's playful, nostalgic, and surprisingly versatile. Whether you're branding retro-inspired packaging, designing a poster, or just want your work to hum with a little neon buzz Hotel Motel has got what you need.

Packed with alternates, ligatures, and hand-tuned details, Hotel Motel gives you the charm of analog lettering without the hassle. Just type, tweak, and let the good times roll.

A hit on the first try
I'm not a professional designer. I’m a musician who occasionally scribbles things down on paper—and lately, on the iPad. The first design I created with Bandstand was immediately used for the poster for my next gig.

Fun, but I'm confused
This is a great font, and really provides a unique "grocer's special" feel to my font palette that comes in handy! The only thing that leaves me from leaving five stars is that I do not know how to access the glyphs, and I did not see any sort of documentation.

Bold & Beautiful
I have bought this elegant Font which seems to scream (in the most melodious way) modern gothic for a forthcoming comics project. I decided to test it out quickly on the thumbnail for a music video. It imported effortlessly and worked as you would hope in PixelmatorPro. Dramatic but highly legible.
