YellowSquare Reviews: Florence

This was a well oiled machine if there ever was one. Clean and well maintained rooms and facilities, attentive, available and friendly multilingual and diverse staff, social activities for daytime and night both indoors and outdoors, discounted and exclusive options for guests, automated systems for laundry and storage, balance of open spaces for socializing or quiet time, decent quality of food (especially the nuggets), beautiful pool with Duomo view, proximity to two tram stops, curated link to up to date city activities and experiences, WhatsApp support. And free pesto pasta!!!

We loved our time there, great time, great place, absolutely fantastic !

Very Accommodating! So thankful we could stay here.

Would love to have more places to set stuff down in the shower and more storage in the rooms and pull be fantastic.

Overall wonderful in every other way!

Great facilities, only thing that could be added would be a gym.

Nice staff and nice ambiance

Probably the best hostel I’ve stayed at. It’s great for making friends, the staff is really friendly, free pasta every evening and comfortable beds. If anything maybe the rooms are a bit on the smaller side. The pool is amazing and the rooftop has great views. I loved it there.

Location is great, the staff is very kind and helpful
The cooking class is a must !

I had a great time at the hostel, nice room and común areas were so nice.

Despite a situation I had in room 203, people from reception desk solve our problem gave us another room and refund what I had payed for my stay. So I appreciate that.

Yellowsquare Florence is a fantastic hostel. The pool is very nice and makes you feel as if you’re staying someone nicer than a hostel. Between the pool, the basement club/bar, the outdoor terrace, etc it is a great place to meet people.

I like the Hostel, but the Rooms are to small, Same with the bathrooms

I like the hostel. The beds was confortably, the bar was fun, the staff was kind, the breakfast a bit expensive, but… I like very much the guitar in the common area, unfortunely I couldn’t play, but it seems like a great idea.

In my view, YellowSquare seems to be a very active hostel. You guys host something everyday that helps in connecting with other people. The staff was super amazing, had a nice interaction with one of them. Cleanliness, my top priority, was there and it was well maintained.

The private room was fine. Clean and simple and cleaned every day. The best part was the international mix of people.

The rooms and bathrooms were clean, as well as the kitchen which had enough space in the fridge to store your food and eat calmly. The staff was nice, and the free pasta every night was a great plus. Easy access to the tram to go to the city center.

Great Hostel! I stayed previously in the YellowSquare Rome and just had the best time so wanted to come to the one in Florence. Great social life, events, bar and free pasta! I met some great people and participated in most events in the evenings. Easy to meet people, loved the rooftop pool and view. Clean facilities. Friendly staff. Perfect place to meet people and make new friends. Would 100% recommend- great location also from the airport can get the tram direct and walk about 3 minutes to the hostel. About a 30 minute walk from the main city. Area felt relatively safe for a solo female traveller. Onto Milan next time to complete the YellowSquare trio!

This place was its own building and it sort of felt like a resort which was great!

The staff were all nice and I liked that you had a welcome drink and they offered free pasta (which I never took advantage of).

The rooms were clean and they have events and activities everyday which is good for younger travellers.

The only negative feedback I had is that the water pressure in my room was terrible. It would barely spit out water when showering. I also got breakfast on my last day and there was a bug crawling around which was not a good sign of the cleanliness of the kitchen.

I’ve had a great experience at this hostel. The rooms surprised me (just like a hotel with a toilet and shower for every room). Also the modern and hygienic experience made it pleasant. On top of that, there was a really nice atmosphere among the guests and I’ve had a real good time.

The experience was really great, the staff was very kind, the rooms were clean and the bathrooms too. The laundromat was a savior and the price was fair.

While being very busy, staff were always friendly and happy to help. It has many facilities and provides many opportunities for guests to interact with new people during events and games. Beds were comfortable and are happy to make more private by providing a curtain (flat sheet) on request.

Such a great hostel, definitely worth it going there. Everyone’s very friendly, there’s free pasta in the evenings and the rooms are big enough to have some privacy. Would definitely go there again.

Excellent hostel – really enjoyed it. In particular:
1) Nice social atmosphere
2) Clean modern rooms and bathrooms – I liked also how they had extra toilets on the ground floor
3) Nice food
4) Amazing rooftop views

I would actually have preferred staying here to a stuffy old hotel in the city centre, if given the choice!

Also can you please open a hostel near Venice!

We had an amazing stay overall, the hostel has a great atmosphere and the dorms were quite comfortable. Great place to meet new people and the perfect location to explore the city from but also enough distance from the city center to not be disturbed at night. The staff really stood out, everybody was very friendly!

Sleeping at Yellowsquare was very convenient. Nice staff, clean rooms. The breakfast was ok for the price.

They provide everything you need and more than most hotels do!
Had a really great stay. Great atmosphere. Would recommend.

I really liked staying at the hostel. The beds are very comfy and it’s close to the city center. The atmosphere of the hostel was very fun, the staff super nice and especially the drinks and the breakfast from the bar was great. I can only recommend to go there (and check out the roof top terrace with a pool!! 🙂 )!

Super nice hostel, sparkling clean and nice fellow people to meet. Staff is so friendly and nice rooftop / common areas

Amazing!
Loved the Events, loved the Pasta. Overall very nice

Hostel was very cool, met some lovely people through the events organised and in the rooms. The rooms were clean and the area was relatively safe, it’s a 20 minute walk from the train station and like 30 minutes from the centre – I love waking so this was great but there’s also trams and buses. Overall very great place to stay while exploring a beautiful city.

Perfect hostel with great facilities, modern design and helpful staff

Nice rooms and atmosphere, only thing that was a bit annoying was the music that was played in bathroom. It went all night but was loud until around 1030 which is a bit annoying

Very clean, friendly and overall very helpful. Lovely place to socialise and make friends

Clean, comfortable and good to meet people!

Location is a bit away from the city center which makes it a bit quiet and nice. The bar and free pasta at night are great. The rooftop pool is a good + in summer and the rooms are clean and confortable. Staff is helpful and friendly and there are a lot of activities scheduled for guests.

Staying at Yellowquare Florence was amazing. From the rooms to the bar and food it was perfect for me. Making friends was easy as a solo traveler and the walk into the city center wasn’t bad at all – even on days I didn’t want to walk the tram was so close it made it even easier to get around.

If was everything perfect! The staff, the cleaning, the events! All good!

The stay was great met so many new people it was crazy. The hostel has the right supply of community activities

Best hotel I’ve stayed at, 10/10
