Hotel IL Verde Kyoto

Excellent location (maybe just being in front of the station would be better), helpful staff. Breakfast mostly continental, abundant and variegated, not changing day to day tho. Room the usual Japanese size. Soft drinks always available and free 1-hour alcohol drinks every day were really great.

Nice hotel with very friendly staff. We booked it specifically because we stayed in Kyoto halfway a 24 day trip and knew we would need to use a washer. This worked out perfectly, there was always 1 free when we needed it (although the dryer function is awful, you will need to dry your laundry 3 times). It was nice that you could relax in the lobby a bit with some drinks if you needed to.

The staff were really friendly and kind. There was a girl on reception, Huang? She was so helpful and always smiling. All the other staff were very welcoming too. The breakfast was very nice, quite simple but in a really good way. The communal areas were all very nice and I got to talk to other travellers in the mornings at breakfast. They give you one hour of free drinks a night and you can choose from a variety. I really liked it, it was a fun hotel with lovely staff.

The hotel is very pleasant, with exceptionally friendly and helpful staff. The room was spacious and comfortable. It is conveniently located near the train station, although there are limited dining options in the immediate area. However, the hotel compensates for this with an in-house kitchen service available until 9 p.m., as well as a happy hour from 6 to 9 p.m. Overall, it offers good value for money, and I would recommend it to other travelers.

We loved our stay in Kyoto. The room was nice and spacious enough, which is a rarity in Japan. It was three of us sharing a room, so we really appreciated the space. Also the complimentary daily happy hour was a such a treat! We got one hour of free drinks everyday in the evening.
