YellowSquare Reviews
YellowSquare is more than a hostel; it’s an international community designed for travelers who want to connect, work, and hang out. Across our locations in Italy and Greece, we provide female-only dorms, shared dorms, and private ensuite rooms, alongside working spaces and daily activities. Definitely not a boring hostel. From working over a coffee to evening events in our venues, we create a active atmosphere where locals and travelers meet and make friends. Every YellowSquare is a gateway to the city, focused on social vibes and the right place to meet people.
Great place, people and location!
perfect in everything
the staff is super kind, the rooms were very clean very comfortable, with a nice view to the city outside, everything was really good
It was very clean always, great installations!
I had a great experience, good instructions, many benefits to use as discounts and ways to meet people easily and securely
I like the Yellow Hostel Chain. The reception staff is very nice and I think overall there is a good atmosphere.
scary elevator and loud door slams. unsettling men next t. us in the bar.
The stay was amazing, especially Kate and Serhat made me feel so welcomed.
Amazing place
I genuinely loved being here. It was my first hostel experience and the social culture here is insane! So many fun people, fun staff, tons of games and opportunities to socialize. I met tons of friends here, got drinks at the bar, had yummy pastries and breakfast, went partying in the club, and out in the city with my new friends. It was incredible, I will remember my time here forever! 💖
I had a very enjoyable stay in Florence: the room was clean and the staff were helpful. Lots of opportunities to meet people and the pasta was a great bonus.
Amazing hub for events in all of Athens, not only for the guests!
I had a great stay, the people I met here we’re so open and social, made lots of friends. There’s a tattoo shop, a bar and a kitchen. There’s events, free pasta every evening. Overall just a great hostell. The showers are a bit small though and not that many toilets. But everything else was great
Good General Atmosphere and it rooms very cleaned every day. But rooms are tiny, old beds, no Cover for the beds.
The room itself is just kind of badly designed.
– The plugs are all loose and the one by the headboard is downward-facing, which means my plug falls out all the time. The plugs in the bathrooms don’t work. For girls at least, we should be able to have working plugs in the bathroom.
– The shower only has water dropping from up top, which means we can’t wash our bodies without washing our hair.
Next if we just get shower curtains, then one person could shower while the other one uses the sink. But because you don’t have that, only one person can use the bathroom at a time
– No ventilation in the rooms
Clean facilities, amazingly kind & helpful staff with fun activities whats not to love. RECOMMEND 💯
Perfect location, fun atmosphere, and friendly staff. My favourite part was the amazing view from the rooftop and the balconies! Also, the breakfast was delicious with big portions. The beds have lots of privacy, with a curtain and safe for valuables. My only complaint is the bathrooms were very stinky. Everything else was amazing.
Everything was great! Privacy, events, storage, environment, everything was very well done. This was by far my best hostel experience.
I got there around midnight, and the woman at the reception who helped me the first time I stayed at this hostel was extremely rude, just like last time. I ended up booking a shared room by mistake, because your website is TERRIBLE and updates the information automatically when it gets to the payment part.The mixed room I stayed in had 3 men, it was a 4-person room. The room had a horrible smell, like cheese. The bathroom was extremely soaked. My blanket had a terrible cheese smell, it seemed like it had terrible foot odor. I didn’t complain that day because I would have to wake up at 5 a.m. to leave, so I stayed with the blankets like that. I told the receptionist who helped me during my check-out, and he was polite and attentive.
the room definitely could have been cleaner. shower was so small. we could barely get i. and out, let alone move around to actually bathe. very incomparable to the pictures shown on the website. also, they leave the laundromat door open so anyone off the street can just come in. bar and hangout area was nice.
Good location near station. Very clean and comfortable. Staff were very helpful to put me in same room as my friend and, even thoguh i had to book my nights separately they went the extra miles so i didn’t have to change rooms halfway through my stay.
Had a great stay, everyone was really friendly and the whole atmosphere of the people staying and the ones who work there was awesome. Also everything was very clean and the food very good
the staff was very friendly and always helpful
Very Stinky
My favourite hostel i’ve stayed in, (most) of the staff are lovely, nice and clean, beds are comfy, great location- 5 mins from termini about 30 mins walk from colosseum and trevi fountain. Bar across the road is great , not too expensive and they have something on every night. Probably most expensive hostel in the area but i’d say it’s worth it and would definitely stay again.
Really great
Good location, vibes, clean
The whole energy place was so welcoming and really leaned into the social aspect of a hostel. It made it feel almost like summer camp but for adults getting to know new people from all over, sharing new experiences and playing drinking games.
I would recommend this place to anyone who’s looking to make some friends in a safe and homey environment.
The hostel room was clean and spacious enough for the 3 of us. It met all of our needs – clean and comfy beds, clean and soft towels, and secure/safe building. The extras that were nice to have were the towel warmer in the bathroom, the hangers for clothes, and body soap in the shower. And the free pasta and drink vouchers were so lovely! It was nice to spend the evening in the lobby chatting and playing games.
The toilet got some issues and there is no constant follow-up with the customer.
Really nice hostel, everything was clean & had loads of space. The beds were in a metallic frame so moving around was quite loud.
Rooftop was lovely with a great view of the city & was in the perfect location half way between the airport & main central train station.
Best hostel I’ve been honestly. Four different places to hang out, games, Safes to keep valuables, big lockers, lovely sturdy bunk beds with privacy curtains, soap in showers, free earplugs, cleanliness – such luxury! and just such a social atmosphere. Everyone is looking for a friend, the staff are amazing. I didn’t want to leave!!!!!
YellowSquare Athens was in a prime location, and made it very easy to see many places I’d planned on going throughout the city without having to travel too far. The staff were helpful and friendly, the room was clean, and the boarding cost was extremely affordable. I hope to find myself back in Athens soon, and I definitely plan on staying at YellowSquare again!
The location is superb and the staff are friendly and no rude nor unfriendly
Amazing hostel with a really welcoming atmosphere! It has a cosy vibe and is a great place to meet people from all over the world. The beds are comfy and provide plenty of personal space. Everything was clean, especially the bathrooms, and it was a nice bonus to have free shampoo and shower gel. We also loved the view of the city from our room. The rooftop bar was one of our favourite spots, with affordable cocktails and a fun, social atmosphere. The only small downside was the service at the bar, which could be a little slow. Overall, we really enjoyed our stay and would definitely recommend this hostel to others!
Best Location! The Yellowsquare made my time in Athens simply awesome. The STAFF. WOW. Nicest and kindest/most helpful people ever (shoutout to Marianna – Jon and all the Italians haha). So clean, great rooftop and activities, I have not 1 bad thing to say. Rooms are great – showers are great – laundry service is near as well.
Our stay was ok, room was very tiny for two people. Room was clean and personnel was friendly. Bed was great and the A/C was also great.
I found staff to be helpful and friendly. Events were well organized and social spaces were clean and accessible. The free pasta was awesome and a great way to start the night and bring people together, along with the “events.” The bar was social and picked up later in the evening. Drinks were good, staff were welcoming.
My experience about the property was so great and I really enjoyed my stay, the facilities were amazing and the people were friendly.
I enjoyed every moment there, so good
