I almost did not stay here because several reviewers thought it was a rough neighborhood. It is not. It is a working-class neighborhood with local, non-tourist oriented shops and cheap restaurants. For me, this was very authentic Athens.

Very friendly staff, clean and organised, with a nice rooftop overlooking the city, and 5 mins walk from Monastiraki, which was very convenient.

Loved the gorgeous staff & generosity of many hours for breakfast and delicious greek yoghurt with native honey with endless Nutella! Stella at night reception was my highlight! She helped me sort out three travel changes and meals vouchers and trusted advice for best greek treat deliveries! Omonia region is Athena's crumbling disaster suburb, but the the kindness of Algerian & diaspora community shows you the biggest hearts from Africa to the Middle East all becoming new Europeans. The four bed dormitories are blissful with seasoned travellers from all over the world and all ages! You will learn Arabic, French, Berber, German and of course Greek! Wish every hotel had Stella welcoming us at check-in reception! ☀️🌸💐👑🩷

We arrived pretty late by car and the team at the reception even organized that we got a parking space just in front of the hostel for 3 days, really nice service! Also the was the Hostel at a great and close Location with lots of restaurants and bars. The rooms and toilets were always clean and we can really recommend a stay at the Athen Hawks.

Hostel is great ,clean and has a fantastic view from the bar. Guys at reception are very friendly and helpful. Thanks to the receptionist's brilliant recommendation our stay was better then expected. It is also very central and most of the amenities are within walking distance.

I was surprised who clean and tidy my single bedroom was, with daily fresh towels included. There's some graffiti in the lift though, which staff could remove at some point. Staff seemed friendly and relatively helpful. They could have given a bit more information on things outside immediate duties when I prompetd, like how to book online tickets for sights like the Acropolis etc.

Hostel with excellent location close to metro stations and most tourist attractions. It also meets all the expectations published on Booking.
