About fav hospitality group Inc.
fav hospitality group Inc. is a hospitality innovation company that seamlessly connects trends, technology, finance, and design to create new forms of "play" and "hospitality" that fit the times.
FHG HOTELS, operated by the company, includes 18 facilities nationwide: the group-stay hotel "fav," the upscale brand "FAV LUX," the high-end hotel "seven x seven" that defines new luxury, seven x seven's sister brand "edit x seven," and the culture business hotel "BASE LAYER HOTEL." The company plans to open over 20 additional facilities by the end of 2027. FHG actively develops new hotel content through collaborations with other industries and works to enhance hotel experiences using DX and AI.
fav / FAV LUX
"fav" is a hotel with the brand mission to "redefine the richness of travel," aiming to provide enriching accommodation experiences unconstrained by conventional hotel norms. With the tagline "stay together, play together," the upscale line "FAV LUX" was launched. Following locations in Nagasaki and Hida Takayama, facilities have opened in Kagoshima Tenmonkan and Sapporo Susukino, continuing the evolution as a group-oriented hotel.
seven x seven
"seven x seven" was born as a high-end line inheriting the style of the group-stay hotel "fav." Starting with the opening in Fukuoka City's Itoshima area, the brand plans nationwide expansion. While "fav" has developed primarily in regional cities as a base for enjoying local areas, "seven x seven" is positioned in locations blessed with exceptional settings. With the tagline "where luxury goes to play," it redefines the ever-changing "luxury of today," proposing new value and enjoyment to the world. The hotel provides accommodation experiences that harmonize luxury and freedom through location-appropriate hotel design, amenities, and cuisine. By introducing QR code smart check-in and digital concierge systems that encourage self-hospitality, it respects each guest's individual way of enjoying their stay.
edit x seven
"edit x seven" is a hotel that expresses the world of "seven x seven" in a new form. While inheriting the spirit of pursuing sophistication and comfort, it carefully edits that essence from an "edit" perspective. Focusing on freedom, spontaneity, and "enjoying life in your own way," it's designed for traveling more lightly and freely. It's a hotel that realizes free and comfortable stays, valuing how you spend time being yourself.
BASE LAYER HOTEL
BASE LAYER HOTEL provides all the basic functions necessary to achieve "comfortable stays" and "fun city exploration," as suggested by the term base layer (outdoor functional underwear). It's a business hotel for culturally sensitive business professionals, proposing "a new form of business hotel for enjoying the city."
