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.

Very Good!

I love the events there, so you meet a lot of new people and have fun. The cleanliness is also very good, which is something also important in most of hostels where it’s dirty. And it’s quite close to the city center by tram just 2 stops or if you have the chance to go for a running from the hostel, you’d be surprised how close we are from the main places

We had a fantastic stay. The place is clean and has all the required facilities such as a cafe, rooftop pool, laundry room and a storage area. The staff is also very helpful and nice. I will definitely be staying here again and will also recommend it to other people.

We had booked the room for 1 night and were to move to a different hotel due to non availability at the time of booking, it was our honeymoon and no ‘better’ rooms than the private ones are available so an upgrade was refused however upon checkin we asked the receptionist is the room nice as it’s a special occasion we were straight away told we are sold out so this is all you can have. The room was one level below the reception. The room and bathroom was dusty we cleaned the towel rack woh tissue and it was black with dust, there was extreme noise of music past midnight disturbing the ones who are not using the dorms or are students which was very inconvenient as it seemed like the hotel catered to mostly the crowd of students. The rooms have no sound proof as well. If guests haven’t booked the dorms and you claim to be a hotel room basic amenities should be provided toothbrush and water or instant coffee not a machine, like the rooms doesn’t have a cupboard or a tv, if I book a dorm and that’s the style of the hotel then it’s fine but for guests with private rooms it is not the best. The ladies serving breakfasts and coffee were nice.

Good facilities and friendly staff. Great layout, and a cool nightclub area. Water pressure for the shower was a quite low but you work with it. A little bit of a walk to the station and the main square but it is fine for the most part. Definitely worth a stay.

Love what the hostel is doing, but really lacked the help with planning tours

I was so happy with the hostel itself, everything was taken care of to provide smooth service for a lot of beds and bring people together with sociable events. The free drink was a great touch, and the cafe was nice for breakfast.
The only thing that really disappointed me was the staff inability to help me book a wine tour. J had started asking when I made the booking.and got nothing, I then asked 4 different staff members individually and still got nothing.
I couldn’t work out if it was the hostel policy to not advise on tours or just wasn’t willing to help.
I had such a short time in Florence and paid more to stay in the private room of the hostel because I have utter faith in hostel staff always going above and beyond to recommend anything other than “get your guide”. The answers were always “I’m not from here” “I’m new here” “try get your guide” and it just took away from the overall time I had in Florence.
I would far rather the hostel selle the tour and make commission than not allow me to do the tour.

This is a great place to stay where you can meet others drink and party, the beds are fine and they have so much to offer. It’s not far from the main section of Florence and staff will help as much as they can.

Good experience with this hostel.
The only thing is that it is loud on Saturdays in some rooms because of the party in the entrance area. And there was only a little pressure of water in the shower. But all in all it was a totally good stay.

This only the second hostel to stay in and was impressed at how organized and accommodating they were.
A lot of space in the rooms.
The first floor common area is specious and clean. The staff was upbeat and helpful.
The roof deck and pool was an added bonus.

The friendliness place I have stayed in for a while. The staff were highly inclusive and the events they organized in the evenings were great for solo travelers to connect and make some traveling friends! The room was very clean and quiet. Loved the coffee in the morning too at a great price!

This location had the coolest vibes! We played Pictionary the first night and met some great people. Bar and kitchen was delicious. Rooms were clean, pillows maybe a little flat. But otherwise 10/10 would stay here again! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I overall enjoyed my stay. It was clean and comfortable, though the first night it was a bit too loud too late into the night for me. It was a pleasant stay with friendly staff and even a free drink, which was nice. I forgot a couple things after checking out though, and while the staff was friendly and said they checked for my missing items when I emailed them, I have a feeling they either didn’t actually check or someone took my things, as they said they couldn’t find them, which was a big bummer. Other than that it was a pretty decent value.

The location is very good, close enough to the center but also remote enough to relax. The Hostel was very clean and well maintained. There were several events and the pool on the rooftop was perfect to cool down a bit in the afternoon. Also there was free pasta everyday for dinner, I didn’t came to try it but I think it’s very nice to offer.

I loved how they stored your bags for free before check in time, and offered lockers for 1 euro after check out. They also let me back in my room after check out to get my chapstick (which they definitely didn’t have to do). They had a lot of activities going on too, which looked cool but I didn’t actually participate (busy schedule).
Downsides: there was no free towel and no lock on the locker (bring your own)

Good hostel but the club night was too loud

The infrastructure in the hostel overall was good.
Unfortunately there was a club night, which made it impossible to sleep in my room due to the music.

Hostel was a bit pricey however it was well and truly worth it and I had booked last minute. The hostel is new and modern and the cleanest hostel I’ve stayed in. The staff are all very friendly and helpful and the rooftop bar and pool is a bonus. Plus everybody gets a free beer coupon and 20% off drinks. Was also only a 20 minute walk into the city which was fine.
