MOTHERS Inc. (Headquarters: Musashino City, Tokyo; CEO: Yoshitake Yasumura) will open 'MORETHAN CAFÉ RESTAURANT LOUNGE' inside THE KNOT FUKUOKA Tenjin on Monday, April 20, 2026.
At this location, we will fully deploy a new style of hotel where the restaurant is placed at the 'center of the experience'—a 'restaurant you can stay at'—for the first time in Fukuoka. We offer menus that let you feel the atmosphere of the city through food, such as Kyushu's first tap cocktails and 'Farm to Pizza' using dairy products from 'UBUYAMA PLACE' in Ubuyama Village, Kumamoto Prefecture.
## A New Hotel Experience: The 'Restaurant You Can Stay At'
In conventional hotels, 'staying' and 'dining' were generally designed as separate experiences.
At MORETHAN, by positioning the restaurant not as an amenity facility but as the 'center of the experience', we propose a new way of spending your time where dining and staying are naturally connected. We aim for an experience where the conversations and energy generated in the restaurant flow seamlessly into the guest rooms, linking food and stay in one continuous sequence.
Furthermore, we have adopted a system where the staff welcoming guests at the restaurant also handle front desk operations. By engaging with guests with the same level of intimacy as when serving food, we realize a high-quality yet informal, close, and friendly hospitality. The warmth and communication born on the 'frontlines of food' spread throughout the entire stay, creating an integrated hotel experience encompassing even human movement, where everything from check-in to dining and time spent in the room is connected as a single experience.
This is a model realized through the integrated planning, design, and operation by One Five Hotels and MOTHERS.
