YellowSquare Reviews: Milan
Located in the heart of the Porta Romana district, YellowSquare Milan offers female-only dorms, shared dorms, and private ensuite rooms. Instead of a formal office, we have The Baretto, a laptop-friendly space where you can work, study, and eat during the day before it turns into an aperitivo and social meeting spot. Salone14 is our events hub in Milan, it's a local 'it-spot' where travelers and locals meet for live music, DJ sets, stand-up comedy, karaoke, and creative projects, it's more like a nightlife without leaving the hostel.
I really enjoyed my stay at your hostel, especially the free dinner once and the Art night added a nice touch to it!
Hostel is a short walk from the train station and there is good restaurants around. Room was super clean and had a good amount of room. Bathroom was good.
Was a great one night stay! Great location and amazing staff! It was definitely worth the book and I enjoyed me stay so much I have booked with other yellowsqaures on this trip as it was that good!
The rooms were comfortable and lots of privacy, the staff were very friendly and the chef made some excellent food
I loved this hostel, the rooms are very nice and clean, with alot of space for your items. A big bonus are curtains on the beds. The thing I liked the most is the numerous opportunities to meet people and have fun. The hostel has at least one fun activity a day. I 10/10 recommend.
The stay at the hostel was a good experie. The room was clean and well organized. The staff were very professional and friendly. The hostel hosted many activities for guests.
It was one of the nicest hostels I’ve ever stayed in. The rooms and kitchen are very clean. Location is great, it’s right next to the metro. The quiz night was super fun, and it’s a highly social hostel. Highly recommended!
Excellent quality room (women’s only, 4 beds) and bathroom, both were clean. Great storage facilities, with both a personal security locker and a safe. The hostel was welcoming and well-located, near the Porta Romana metro stop, meaning it was easy and quick to destinations like the Duomo or Milano Centrale station for day trips. The staff maintained a good atmosphere and organised fun, free activities like the games night.
It was also possible to rent towels for €1,50. The room was good value.
Please add anti mosquito nets other than that stay was amasing.
Big breakfast, free drink was good, then two hours on the toilet
I visited Milan hostel and had the best experience. Staff was very helpful and the property is really nice. The events in the evening were really great too. Only one thing I noticed, there was this guy who was intentionally going and talking to women seating alone, he did not seemed to be a guest but rather a local, and he was not even from the working team, this felt really weird and unsafe to my friend when we were seating outside and talking. Hope this can get more focus. But overall it was a great experience and I will definitely recommend it to my friends.
I stayed at YellowSquare for my first solotrip, and it couldn’t have been any better! Lovely and helpful staff, fun activities, amazing food and really good location.
This is second time staying in a yellow square, I done the Rome one last year, loved it and saw they had one in Milan so booked it. The Milan one is a little smaller to the Rome one but nothing major, 2 of us stayed both able to in same room, everything was perfect, very social, had our free drinks, only then had a coffee, but i remember the breakfast last year was really nice. One of the best hostels I’ve stayed in, however mosquitoes were bad in the room, but due to the doors being open, nothing could’ve been done really over it
It was amazing, a very high-quality and energetic atmosphere. I will definitely come with my family next time because it feels very safe. Thank you again for everything
We had a great time at Yellowsquare Hostel.
The staff was super friendly, helped us with any request and the hostel was clean and nice common areas. Thanks so much to the whole team!
I stayed here with my motorbike which i could park directly in front of the hostel. The rooms were clean and spacious. The beds had curtains which was nice.
I had an amazing stay, everything was clean, beds are really comfortable and you also have the privacy with the curtains, charging slots and light inside.
All of the hotel was very good and cool, I had a difficult time to take out my bracelet after my trip, sometimes the people were very loud and so the dorms were not enough isolated, we had problems with the AC and it wasnt very clear for that. Very good ambiance, very cool for the free pasta and cereals, for the game nights and all (i wish for them everyday). It was a very good place to rest.
Amazing people, and the place is beautuful, the rooms are clean and perfecto for the stay …. i would definetly book agai in my next trip
It was very comfortable overall. The staff helped me a lot and easily explained everything I needed to know. The only thing that was a bit uncomfortable is that the rooms are a bit crammed. The breakfast was delicious. I also enjoyed the activities.
Staff was incredibly friendly, helpful, and available. The 24/7 reception service is truly exceptional, as well as how attentive the staff are. Yellowsquare met every single one of our needs, from towels to umbrellas, and even threw in a free tote bag! The rooms were so spacious, well-organized, and clean and the private bathroom was wonderful. This was, by far, the best hostel I’ve ever stayed in!
Wish I was here for longer but only a quick stop off in Milan- 24hr reception was perfect and the beds were nice and private with a curtain so easy to arrive later and wake up without disturbing the other guests.
Nice room, Air Conditioning came in handy on a hot summer day, good and friendly staff that hands out free vouchers for drink etc. Very welcoming place. Most importantly, easy metro access from Milan Central Station, clean beds, good sized lockers, Clean Bathrooms, Bidets (plus) and paid storage lockers in the basement for ONLY 1€ a day. I will come hack forsure!
Overall an amazing experience. Quiet, clean, no smells, most of the staff members were super friendly. Met nice people.
The location was great and well connected on public transport. The staff were really friendly and helpful. My room as well as the general areas were exceptionally clean. They also organised lots of events – not just partying but some other lowkey options as well. One of my favourite hostel experiences
Everything needed was there, the room were comfortable and clean, it was quiet, the staff were very helpful and friendly and the vibes in the common spaces great. Many activities organised during the week. Great for remote working.
first time staying at a hostel and absolutely loved it. stayed in a private room for four and would recommend. the lobby is so vibey with friendly people, free water, and a free drink voucher! always felt safe, breakfast was cheap and delicious. couldnt recommend more, quick metro to the city center for shopping.
Clean hostel, friendly people, even friendlier staff, good location. Can’t go wrong here.
Had a great time rooms were clean, common area was lovely, handy location.
Very good place to stay, I was there with my family, it was my daughter’s favorite place. The only thing is that they just have a washing machine.
The staff were very friendly. The hostel had lots of activities and a fun vibe. The kitchen and drinks were affordable too.
The room itself was pretty average. The bed was pretty uncomfortable and maybe the room was a little dated but perfectly fine.
We did however have a cleaner walk into our room unannounced around 8:30am or so without knocking and without anything on the door saying we wanted the room serviced which was a little scary. After I seemed shocked he closed the door but did not apologise. At the very least he could have knocked. A few minutes prior I was undressed in the room so he could have walked in and seen. I felt that there needed to be a way to lock the room further from the inside as the lock was just automatic which felt a little unsafe. Our key cards also stopped working so we had to go to reception 3x to get it fixed.
Other than that it was good.
was nervous about staying a hostel for the first time but yellowsquare was wonderful. i found it to be better then many hotels ive styaed at. on arival we were given free drink vouchers. the rooms were clean and well furnished, we had AC control and the bathrooms were great. there were many amenities on site as well. i would definitely recomend and will be looking at staying at yellowsquares in other cities as well.
I enjoyed my stay at Yellowsquare Milano! It was a great experience to start my trip on.
The beds were comfortable, clean, and had curtains. The wifi worked well and the guest kitchen was massive. The breakfast was really good and relatively cheap.
The Hostel is situated in a great area. The room was great and clean, it was just enough to be there for the nights. I liked the breakfast, it was tasty and far more than enough. I’ve got to know a lot of people and I will be always grateful for the experience what this hostel gave me.
Even though I am a 41-year-old man who had never stayed in a hostel before, this experience completely changed the way I see this type of accommodation when traveling.
From the well-organized check-in process and the flexibility of changing beds to the cleanliness of the rooms, everything contributed to a very positive experience.
Maybe I was lucky, or maybe these are simply their values: cleanliness, comfort, a quiet atmosphere in the rooms, respectful guests, a great vibe in the lobby, enjoyable parties, and very open-minded people.
Overall, it was a genuinely pleasant experience, and I would definitely consider staying in a hostel again.
We had an amazing stay and truly felt welcomed from the moment we arrived. The hotel was clean, comfortable, and very well organized. What made our experience extra special was that the hotel kindly upgraded our room for free after knowing we were newlyweds, which was such a thoughtful and generous gesture. The staff were incredibly friendly, professional, and always happy to help. The location was also perfect and convenient for everything we needed. Thank you for making our honeymoon trip even more memorable. We would definitely love to come back again!
As with the hostel in Athens, this is an ideal place to stay. Offers everything at great price.
I love Yellowsquare this is my third time staying with them and my second staying in Milan. Great stay if you want something cheaper. The dorms were good and clean, the bed was very comfortable and the bathrooms were cleaned everyday. I loved the added curtains in the female forms which they didn’t have before. The hostel is a vibe and the staff is very nice. The only complaint I have is with the kitchen cleanliness since it was a bit dirty this time. As well as the fridge (was was very small for all the people staying) and it was dirty too. I would suggest to have someone deep clean the kitchen since relying on the guests for is not very sanitary or wise overall. Other that that, good stay, they have late night activities but I wasn’t very interested.
It was really clean and the amount of events that were going on was really cool.
