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.

Loved the space and front desk staff! So helpful and welcoming. We received a free drink card and they offer food on the main floor! Atmosphere was really friendly with board games, seating and a wellness space! Kitchens were spacious and clean! Absolutely incredible visit, would definitely recommend. We even got our 4 person hostel upgraded to 2 private dorm by chance. The best way I can describe the place is a clean modern campus residence dormitory with a great atmosphere.

The room I was with in had a weird moldy smell and visible mold. I felt myself getting wheezy from the poor ventilation and the placement of the bar so close let to hard times sleeping with all the noise. Thanks amenities, but still very expensive and not my favorite.

I had a great time. Slept better than I expected in the six-bed dorm and the facilities with storage in the room were well thought through (even though I couldn’t completely shut and lock my under-bed storage).

I was really impressed with the space in Rome. It felt incredibly welcoming and productive. I really Liked that the bar was separate from the lobby and felt like a proper bar. Most hostels have the bar in the lobby and it’s very crammed/clashing vibes. The rooms always felt clean, especially the bathrooms! No mold, dust, dirt! Was really content with my experience 🙂

I liked this hostel. I’m glad it was so close to the tram stops.

The free pasta was a nice way to come together in a social setting.

I got a good free book from the shelf.

I had lots of fun at karaoke. The noise stayed downstairs, from the room I didn’t hear anything, very good soundproofing.

The best hostel ive stayed in. Its sociable, clean and the staff are really helpful.

I stayed in milan for 4 days and ran into an issue where I stupidly left my phone in the Uber but it was handed in and the staff knew who it belonged to and saved it for me when I went down to ask if anything had been handed in. Very grateful and the staff where not judgemental at all.

Plenty of events and plenty of things to do and is very secure. I think when I go to Rome I will be staying at the yellowsquare there and another’s dotted around Europe because it was fantastic. Definitely a returning customer! 🙂

I booked YellowSquare because it had such high ratings on HostelWorld and it was close to the pick-up spot for my bus trip to Cinque Terre. However, it is not close to much of else and needs to serve as a restaurant, a bar and a club because it’s so far from everything. The bunk beds are essentially metal sheets and, if the room is cold, the metal just traps the cold. It was overpriced for the overall experience and I wish I had paid a little more for a better location and at the same comfort level.

Everything ran smoothly, from checkin to checkout. The facilities are comfortable and the people are receptive. The guests are from different ages, counties and background. The price is reasonable and I loved the experience.

Atmosphere was great, enjoyed the events at night, staff super friendl!.

Beds comfortable but rooms not very well ventilated. Sheets were clean but duvets had stains on them.

The ensuite stayed clean, but it would be great if there was somewhere to put your belongings in the shower cubical; it was difficult to get changed especially when there was no lock on main bathroom door.

The hostel is located in two buildings on opposite sides of the street, bar and car noise will get into your room when you’ve got a street side window. The room interior is colorless, the bathroom quite small compared to the available space between the beds.
Elevators are slow and undersized for 6 floors of hostel, 3 person per cabin
The bar is well stocked with fair prices, cool activities are ordered. But it will be incredibly full even on a weekday
The breakfast is incredible, well worth the 11€
It’s about 10 mins walk to termini

It was hard for me to relate and become friends with the people staying in my dorm because of how much older the people were. Lack of privacy with no curtains makes it difficult to feel comfortable while sleeping.

Yellowsquare Rome was my first ever stay at a hostel on my first solo trip ever and I didn’t expect to love it so much. Everything was so easy and went on so smoothly because of the help of the staff. My favourite part was the Yellowbar where I got to have free pasta every night and meet so many different and amazing people. The activities were also so fun and I really had the best time. Also amazing location, everything was at a walking distance and that was great.

I stayed at this hostel in Milan with a friend, and we were really pleasantly surprised. Honestly, I didn’t have high expectations since it was my first time staying in a hostel, but it easily exceeded a hotel.

Great Hostel with nice equipment. The shared room was fairly confortable and was located in a calm area. The hostel is closed to the train station and city center in a calm neighborhood.

I really enjoyed my stay at Yellow Square in Florence. The staff was very friendly and welcoming. The room was nice and clean, and the bed comfortable. Lots of great people and good vibes in the evening. But also space to relax on your own or work if you need it. Great coffee and breakfast. Would recommend and stay here again myself 🙂

The hostel is good in different aspects. The only disadvantage is the ventilation in the room has a room for improvement.

I booked a 6 beds female dorm but got the upgraded to a dorm of 4 which was great. I got really lucky that all the girls in my dorm arrived on the same day so we ended up getting close and enjoying Rome together.

I had an amazing stay at YellowSquare! The place was spotless and well-maintained, which made it feel comfortable and welcoming from the moment I arrived. The staff were absolutely fantastic friendly, helpful, and always ready to make sure everything was perfect.

What really stood out was the fun atmosphere. There were so many activities to take part in, making it easy to meet people and enjoy every moment of the stay. It truly felt like more than just accommodation it was an experience.

I left as a very happy customer and would definitely stay here again. Highly recommended!

The place was great and had such a cool vibe. Loved all the events the hostel put on, and it was truly such a social environment. As a female traveler, I felt comfortable and safe being there and they had implemented so many safety measures. I also appreciated how clean our hostel was! Would for sure go back in a heartbeat, and it was such an amazing experience.
