R HOTELS is a lifestyle hotel brand that is positioned as a city-based hotel that combines business and sightseeing. The hotel adopts a design style that blends European exoticism. It has the advantages of affordable prices and convenient transportation of business hotels, and can also experience a uniquely designed accommodation atmosphere. However, the public facilities in the hotel are almost non-existent, which makes it very suitable for travelers who only need to sleep and stay overnight. It is also a cost-effective accommodation option with low price and high quality.

Quick understanding: Service features and basic introduction of R hotel series
R Hotels (R HOTELS) started out by operating Japanese-style inns in Shizuoka, and opened its first founding location next to Matsuyamachi Station in Osaka in 2019. In 1, the R Hotel series was officially launched. The directly-operated brand locations are concentrated in the urban area of Osaka. At the same time, the inns that are commissioned to be operated in Tokyo are also included in the R Hotel series.
The R Hotel series takes "Where You Feel True Connection" as its brand spirit and is designed by the same group's Cangshu Company. It adopts an elegant and steady design style suitable for adults, integrating elements of European exotic customs and local community culture, and provides affordable design hotels with competitive prices.
The entire R Hotel series has a high-quality, calm design, and the accommodation price is quite affordable, which is suitable for people who are tired of the dull chain business hotels.
