The Seafarers project, which includes a redevelopment of historic Goods Shed No. 5 and restoration of a crane, will include 1 Hotel including 140 luxury residences due to open in 2022.

A nature-inspired hotel will feature in the $450 million redevelopment of a neglected northbank site.

Australia's first 1 Hotel will open at Riverlee's Seafarers project at Flinders Wharf.

Part of the Starwood group, the hotel will have 280 rooms, a wellness centre, a 1000-seat function centre and lobby bar.

It will have "a distinctly Melburnian vibe ... with calm, radiant energy and incredible artwork", a statement by the project partners said.

"Inside, playful expressions of sea life will be coupled with soft, unexpected touches such as spaces carved from reclaimed objects and portals that link 1 Hotel Melbourne's building to surrounding buildings,"it said.

1 Hotel opened its first three hotels in the US, including near New York's Central Park and Miami's South Beach.

Riverlee's development director, David Lee, said his firm was thrilled to be bringing the nation's first 1 Hotel to the banks of the Yarra River.

"It's the hotel's commitment to celebrating the history of the site -once the site of Melbourne's busiest port -that will contribute to delivering a truly bespoke hotel experience,"he said.

Starwood's SH Hotels & Resorts president Arash Azarbarzin said the group wanted to create the "finest destination in the heart of Melbourne".

Jobs, Innovation and Trade Minister Martin Pakula said Riverlee's investment would create more than 500 jobs.

"Securing one of the world's top luxury hotel operators in Victoria is a clear vote of confidence in our visitor economy, our world-class infrastructure , our exceptional local produce and retail talent ,"he said.
