Hotel "SABLIER by R HOTEL" with the concept of "A sand cinema where you forget time" scheduled to open on May 1, 2026, in Sakuragawa, Osaka.

R Hotels & Resorts Management Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Chuo-ku, Tokyo, Representative Director: Yi-Xuan Bao) will open R HOTEL's new hotel brand, "SABLIER by R HOTEL," in Sakuragawa, near Namba, Osaka, on May 1, 2026. In anticipation of this, accommodation reservations began today, April 3 (Friday). "SABLIER by R HOTEL" is a new brand hotel that proposes an unprecedented accommodation experience, enveloped in the tranquility of the desert and the lingering impressions of cinema, with the concept of "A sand cinema where you forget time."

■ About SABLIER by R HOTEL
"SABLIER" means "hourglass" in French. This hotel was born to offer a slow and tranquil time, like the quiet descent of sand in an hourglass, distanced from the hustle and bustle of the city. The interior design draws inspiration from the landscapes of the Moroccan desert. Soft curves, calm earth tones, and a spatial composition that evokes a sense of tranquility create a peaceful stay away from everyday life. Furthermore, by layering the theme of "cinema," an art form of time, onto this, we have shaped this hotel as a place to gently unfold one's sensibilities, rather than just a place to sleep. As soon as you step into your room, you will be greeted by a sophisticated space where the silence of the desert and modern beauty coexist. It is a hotel where you can immerse yourself in your own time while being in an extraordinary setting.

■ Logo Design
The brand logo is designed with motifs of an "hourglass" and "letters emerging from the sand." It expresses the sensation of comfortably savoring each moment of slowly flowing time and symbolizes the tranquil stay experience offered by SABLIER.

■ All Rooms Equipped with 4K Projectors. Guest Rooms Become Private Theaters
SABLIER's biggest feature is the overwhelming visual experience provided by large screens in every room. In collaboration with JMGO, a highly-acclaimed projector manufacturer that consistently wins the Home Theater Award, all guest rooms are equipped with the laser 4K projector "N1S 4K". You can enjoy various video streaming services and television broadcasts on a large screen. With a maximum 100-inch screen and high-fidelity audio equipment, your room transforms into a private theater. Spend a special moment enveloped in the magic of movies, forgetting the passage of time in a serene space.

■ The Lounge Enhances the Lingering Impression of Your Stay with Music
The first-floor lounge features a record player and high-quality speakers. Movie soundtracks selected daily by the staff will gently color your stay, from check-in to check-out. This space allows you to immerse yourself in the lingering impressions of movies through both visuals and music, enabling you to experience SABLIER's unique worldview. Furthermore, we are planning to develop original merchandise and hold events in collaboration with various creators and companies in the future.
