YellowSquare Reviews

Meeting good people and having a good time in YellowSquare !

Nice place to the meet and make new friends, provided with a comfortable ambiance.

This was one of the best hostels I’ve ever been to. The rooms are well thought-out, comfortable, and clean, and the common spaces have everything needed for a great stay. The atmosphere was incredible and very social, and I had no trouble making new friends here! It is only a 20 minute walk from the center or a short tram ride away. Definitely recommend staying here!

it really made my trip to florence. first time going solo, staff were so lovely , im quite a disorganised person so stuff went a bit wrong sometimes, but the staff were always so lovely and helpful all the times. the hostel was so social and it was so easy to make friends here. made really good friends with a few solo travellers that were also staying here. If you’re ever in florence, undoubtedly this is the best hostel to stay. lovely people and great location (very close to a tram stop so getting into florence city was so easy)

Nice staff, clean rooms, good variation of activities. I had a great time and really enjoyed staying here (:

Nice hostel but location was not great and the pool was freezing cold even at the hottest time of day

It was very easy to ger connected to other people in the hostel, because the staff did events every evening and the connections to other people just built naturally. The food and drinks were very good and i like the pool a lot.

Felt so safe here, vibes immaculate (lol)

I stayed 3 nights at YellowSquare Venice in a 4 female dorm and it’s a pretty good hostel. Not immediately close to the Central Station, but there is tram very often for the city center, so that’s not a problem. The hostel is clean, has a good infrastructure and activities every night and the staff is really very attentive and helpful. It’s not the best ever, but it worth the money.

thanks for all support provided

The hostel is amazing with a great vibe and great events.

Its my hostel of choise everytime i come to Florence and i’m Always Happy to come back: Awesome staff, activities everyday, well located, 3 bars, pool and the best vibe in Florence
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Absolutely the best hostel in the world, from the staff to the location, the beauty of the place and the people that walk through there every day, who will instantly become your best friends.

The hostel is incredible and the vibes amazing !! That’s for me from far from the others hostel i visited in the world, the best one, and will come back in November for sure

I had an amazing time at Yellow square, staff were exceptional. plenty of events, great for solo travelers.

First time staying at any hostel and I couldn’t be happier, beds were better than expected, place was extremely clean and nice. The vibe was always positive. Met some amazing people and had a blast. The location was also great, just far enough to be away from tourist area but not far enough for it to be a long walk. Will stay here again in the future

There was no distilled water available. We had to go to the communal kitchen to boil hot water ourselves. Yet, it is tap water. There were not any complimentary fruits or snacks available. We had to self-cook the pasta. This is also below my expectation because other hostel does provide readily-available snacks.

A deposit has to be paid for luggage storage upon discharge. This is something new to me as all other hostel stores it for free for in-house guest.

Outside foods and drinks can only be taken in communal kitchen. Does that mean we are not entitled to enjoy the bar seat view at the main entrance if we do not spend at your bar section?

Not really serious staff or friendly.

Free pasta every day (not the best but free), one free beer/wine to every customer, Nice staff, lots of activities hosted, free tampons, and i liked the design of the place. Retning a towel was only 1€, really cheap. Best hostel we were at during our interrail trip.

This place was awesome and not just because it had a pool. The pool was nice but I would still rate my experience amazing even if there was no pool. All the staff is so helpful and friendly and the hostels activities are always fun and well organized and a great way to meet people. There’s food for pretty cheap in case you just want to stay in all day which was quite nice. The pool was so great during the heat of the summer and I spent a whole day reading and enjoying the weather. Only downside was I thought the showers were a little icky on the sides where they seal but I had shower shoes and it was only on the edges so wasn’t a problem. I booked last minute so I got a mixed dorm which I was nervous about as a solo female traveler but everyone was super nice and respectful and also had a couple girls in my room. Only slightly bad thing was on the last night some people in my room were about to hook up in the bed above me so I had to exit the room at like 4am for a little bit to save my ears from that lol.

Overall the stay was nice, people were great and good location.

Thank you so much YellowSquare you guys really are top tier for a hostel. Such a good vibe and really good for solo travellers with lots of activities to meet people. The pool is great and honestly I can’t really think of anything negative. Wifi was maybe a bit patchy in places, that’s about it. Super clean and room was spacious

This was definitely one of the best hostels I’ve stayed in!! They put on really fun events every night and had cheap drinks at the bar. They also provide free pasta dinner + they have a massive dinner menu too which was great. Amazing vibes, especially at the rooftop pool. The rooms were a decent size too however the showers don’t get very hot

Super clean rooms, nice privacy in beds, and the hostel has many amenities. The free pasta and beer was awesome!

No water or electricity on morning of check out
Rooftop bar closed

I loved the hostel: the people were friendly and the staff was helpful, the food options were good and cheap and daily you could get a free pasta dinner. I didn’t really go to the clubs or events so I cannot say anything to them. The rooms were a bit impractical because of lights going on automatically but nothing that cannot be solved with an eye mask. In my opinion, the toilets of the rooms could have been cleaner and maybe had a hand towel or so… still great experience
It takes about 15-25 minutes to walk to central florence but the path is straightforward and always felt safe

Excellent service, good personal, delicious breakfast, funny activities and very clean

Clean hostel with great equipment, I stayed in a 6 women dorm and it was convenient. The location is close to the city center by foot and close to the tram for the airport. The staff was lovely and the overall mood was cheerful with good parties and activities. Great bar !

Rooms were clean. Staff was amazing. Activities we’re fun. Would 100% stay again but for longer

I stayed at Yellowsquare for 3 nights. The rooms were a good size, staff were so so lovely and helped where needed! Everything was really clean and I would definitely recommend!!

I had a wonderful stay at this hostel. They’d put a lot of effort into making the place look and feel nice. It was very clean and there was a great atmosphere. The pool was an incredible addition and a great way to meet people.

Had a great time and met lots of new friends, hostel was clean with great facilities, rooftop pool was a great touch!
