HOYU INN'S
★ 4.8 · 84 reviews Kaohsiung Opened 14 February 2026
Japanese minimalism where Smokey Joe's used to be
Old Kaohsiung remembers this address as Smokey Joe's, the American diner on Wufu 4th Road. It's now HOYU INN'S, thirty rooms of white walls, warm wood and deliberate emptiness, from the team behind River Trees Hotel a few streets over.
Rooms run around the low two-thousands in NT most nights. The Yancheng location seals it: three minutes to Yanchengpu station, walking distance to Pier-2, the Pop Music Center and the Love River, with old-town noodle shops right downstairs. Reception is on the third floor.

Overall, this stay was quite pleasant. The hotel environment was clean and comfortable, the room was meticulously prepared, and there was no feeling of confinement. The front desk staff were also friendly and patiently assisted with any questions, making me feel quite at ease. The location was convenient; finding places to eat or get around nearby wasn't too difficult. The room amenities were generally sufficient, the bed was comfortable, and I slept well that night. Overall, it was a comfortable and relaxing stay, and I would definitely consider staying here again if I have the opportunity to visit this area again.

I found a wonderful place to stay in Kaohsiung, and the whole experience was fantastic. It felt very comfortable from the moment I stepped in, and I felt very relaxed after the shower. I loved the overall environment, and I'll definitely stay here again next time I'm in Kaohsiung. Highly recommended! ❤️
