Convenient location

Stayed here for about one week . Asked for a non smoking room . They had one available for an extra charge . Wasn’t able to sleep as it was right under a compressor . It seems like the hotel knew about the problem . Asked for the smoking room again and wasn’t refunded as I was told that room was bigger ? Service in Kyoto in those hotels is going down as there is a big shortage . Too bad as it is much better in the rest of Japan .

Great hotel near Nijo Castle

We stayed 1 night at Horikawa Inn for an overnight visit from Osaka. Hotel was located 1.5 blocks from the Tozai Subway Line (Nijojo Mae Station). 2 blocks from Nijo Castle and a lot of small shops and restaurants nearby. Overall a great value and a good free breakfast.

Kyoto Horikawa Inn is at the center of the Kyoto

Hotel staff are very nice and try hard to help and we can get what we were asking although English is not good enough What they should have let people know is that there is a #9 bus directly come from the train station have a stop right in front of their door (220yen/person). We found it on the way out but had to walk > 10minutes from subway station (210yen/person)with map when we went in.
