Hualuxe Taipei will feature 199 guest rooms and is expected to incorporate design features, service styles and social spaces reflecting local traditions and the brand’s focus on hosting, dining, and tea culture.
The announcement follows a previous collaboration between IHG and Fullon Hotels, including work on voco Chiayi.
IHG stated that the introduction of Hualuxe comes as Taiwan’s hospitality sector is experiencing what it describes as a phase of “quality growth.”
This stage is influenced by steady domestic demand, a broader range of international visitors, and changing traveller preferences for more culturally immersive experiences.
IHG Hotels & Resorts Greater China CEO Daniel Aylmer said: “The signing of Hualuxe Taipei marks another important milestone in our partnership with Fullon Hotels & Resorts, and another step forward as IHG brings Hualuxe Hotels & Resorts to more markets around the world.
“Together with Fullon, we look forward to creating a premium hospitality experience with a strong sense of place for local and international guests, while contributing to the long-term development of Taiwan’s hospitality sector.”
Hualuxe is positioned as a brand that blends cultural heritage with modern hospitality.
Launched in 2012, Hualuxe Hotels & Resorts had 27 hotels operating as of the first quarter of 2026, with a further 20 properties in the global development pipeline.
Fullon Hotels & Resorts group general manager Joseph Yang said: “By combining Taiwan’s cultural depth with an international brand perspective, we aim to create a premium stay experience that shares the warmth and character of Taiwan hospitality with travellers from around the world.”
IHG entered Taiwan in 2008 with the opening of Holiday Inn Express Taoyuan and now has 17 hotels operating across eight brands.
