fav hospitality group opened FAV LUX Miyazaki in Miyazaki, Japan, on July 1.
The hotel offers 41 rooms across six room types, including suites with 83-square-meter guestrooms and private 40-square-meter balconies; rooms with saunas produced by Miki-e Sasano, daughter of the owner of Sauna Shikiji; and sauna suites equipped with METOS saunas. Room rates start from JPY 16,000.
The sauna combines Finnish and Moris-style sauna experiences and features two cold baths at 15°C and 9°C, a 40°C jet bath, and an outdoor relaxation terrace. Day-use access is expected to be available from around September. The property also includes Rocs Fit, a hypoxic gym that recreates an environment equivalent to an altitude of 2,500 meters. The all-day dining restaurant, kitchen by fav, uses ingredients from Miyazaki and serves three types of “sauna meals”: beef tendon curry, Miyazaki Nichinan chicken nanban rice bowl, and hamburger steak hitsumabushi-style rice bowl. It also offers breakfast exclusively for guests, including grilled rice balls with salt-koji-marinated Nichinan chicken and a pork morning plate; dinners such as salads with locally grown vegetables and deli items and Margherita pizza with homemade tomato sauce; and sweets including homemade classic pudding and the Signature banana juice. To commemorate the opening, breakfast-included plans are being offered at a 30% discount.
The hotel is a 10-minute drive from JR Miyazaki Station and approximately 20 minutes by car from Miyazaki Bougainvillea Airport.
