YELLOW SQUARE

Designed by Pierattelli Architetture, YellowSquare is a contemporary hostel concept where flexibility, atmosphere and colour coexist to offer a new take on hospitality. After it’s debut in Rome twenty years ago, the latest YellowSquare is situated in Florence, offering a hub of activity where both tourists and locals can meet and connect.

Converted from a ‘30s building, YellowSquare Florence sleeps 250, distributed in dorms of four and eight beds, and also includes 12 private rooms. A multifunctional and inclusive space, YellowSquare aims to be a catalyst for connection, offering numerous activities to that end such as cooking lessons and sunset yoga sessions.

The project’s crowning glory is its pool and sun terrace on the top floor, with breathtaking views across the Florence skyline.
