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.

Couldn’t recommend more! Rooms were airconed and very clean, the staff were lovely and the check in process was very easy. YellowSquare is very close to two metro stops and is very conveniently located next to supermarkets and cafes.

My friends and I really enjoyed our stay here, and would 100% stay again if we even visit Milan in the future. The staff were super friendly, the room (a 4-bed dorm) was great, the bathroom was modern, there was aircon in the rooms and whole building, and the beds were really nice and each had a safe, a power socket, a shelf, and a big locker with coat rail inside. The bathroom attached to the room was a little bit small and pokey but still super nice and renovated with everything you need. All of the common areas were awesome too, and the breakfast options they offer downstairs were a really good deal for the price you pay. The location of the hostel was also great, with a tram and metro stop literally a two minute walk away. If you’re considering staying here, definitely do!

Best Hostel!!

We changed our booking to yellow square last minute purely because it had a pool and kitchen as I other one didn’t but once we got to the hostel we were blown away. Pool area is amazing and super social. Rooms are clean, big and have amazing AC. Bar has great food and drinks at a really reasonable price for Italy. We met some amazing people which could have been pure luck but the layout of the hostel you literally cannot not meet awesome people. The free pasta is good for backpacking as it fills your belly and then you can go into town and get something smaller. Also we loved that the bar put ice in our water bottles which we have never had at a hostel. The fact every person has a safe on their bunk is really cool. The hostel was so fun that we barely explored the city as the hostel was so cool which is bad but that’s how much we loved it. We loved yellow square so much that we stayed in the Rome one after Florence and were again blown away. The staff are also so friendly and fun. Genuinely the best hostel I have ever stayed at and will hopefully be back and recommend to anyone who is going to Florence.

Yellowsquare Florence had the right amount of socialising and amenities. The rooftop pool was perfect in the heat, everyone was friendly and chatty and the sleeping arrangements were comfortable. I wish I had stayed more than one night.

The room was well prepared, a own safe and a big locker (for my big bag) made it easy to arrive.

I liked the different Events to Connect each other. My only wish in this point: Be proactive, ask people, if they want to join.

Breakfast was great especially the fresh Barista coffee.

The only thing i want to say is that i would be a good idea to have an odor neutralizing flavoring in each room.

everything about the stay was great. they had rules that kept things quiet in the room

only thing was the lack of coworking space. part of the reason i booked yellowsquare was because they mentioned a coworking space online, however when i was there, i learned that it was fully booked and that there was only 2 conference-style rooms, not an actual working space.

I had to move around throughout the common areas because they would get loud

It was good experience for 3 days.

I stayed in a girls’ dormitory for 6 people. The room was big and good. The beds and lockers were also good. The bathroom was clean. The common areas in the hostel were great. The rooftop and the garden were really good and there were many activities.

A nice, chill hostel with helpful staff, excellent air conditioning, good food and drinks, and plenty of places to relax in the sun. Very close to the metro and bus stops, and an easy walk to various sites of interest. Public swimming pool nearby (check closures online, it was closed when I was visiting). Lovely gluten free bakery a 7 minute walk away (Glufre bakery). Clean kitchen available in the hostel, but could do with more cutlery and mugs, and maybe a toaster.

I stayed one night in a private room in YellowSquare Milano.

Everything from checking in, to the room and the common areas was really nice!

Thanks to the nice staff for good beer and coffee. And some good recommendations for the area.

Will definitely come back since I did not get to join the events they had.

Thanks again 🙏

The staff we very helpful whenever you needed them, very sympathetic. The activities were fun, the room was clean. Bed was comfortable. The bar across made it easier to meet with people. And the location was great too, only a few minutes walking distance from the train station! really appreciate the free earplugs and tampons.

We had the “Superior” Private Room. Superior was only the price. The only difference to the standard is the small balcony which is definitely not worth the money. The bathroom wasn´t properly cleaned when we arrived (black hairs on the floor). The small room had only one little chair and a small table. It is forbidden to bring your own beer (they like to sell it on their own bar). After we left I realized I forgot my cap in the room and gave them a call. They told me they found the cap and I should give them a detailed description or send them a photo. I asked I f they would send me the cap if i do so. The answer: “This is not a service we provide”. The only thing they are interested in is obviously that you leave your money at the place. The nights were noisy. When the party noise stopped around 5´clock in the morning the noise oft the city cleaning service emptying the glass containers began.

The place has a good location and a great staff, but the bed and bathroom was very unconfortable

The place has a good location, the staff is very friendly and help you a lot. But the bed in rooms are very uncomfortable, and the bathroom was not working good. You have to push several times to get water, but this no one knows and you can imagine this sharing the toilet with 8 people! 😓

Had a great time in Florence because YellowSquare had everything I needed. Appreciated the standing lockers, free bodywash, and the regular cleaning. The events also seemed nice although I didn’t get time to attend. I was in a dorm with other solo travelers and we hung out together! Only small drawback is the location, we had to walk a bit to get to the city center. But it was clear before I booked.
