Athens Hawks Urban, Athens Overview

Athens Hawks Urban is a 2-star hotel in Athens, Greece. Rated 8.6 out of 10 based on 1,167 guest reviews.

Athens Hawks Urban is a practical, 2-star base in Athens, Greece, suited to travelers who want an easy start to days of museum-hopping and neighbourhood wandering. The hotel sits at 5 Σερηνού, placing you within reach of the National Archaeological Museum and the wider central Athens grid. Guests consistently praise the overall value for money, with many noting that the rooms feel comfortable for the category and that the staff are responsive when questions come up. With air conditioning in-room, it’s a straightforward choice for warmer months, and non-smoking rooms help keep the stay comfortable for those sensitive to smells. A restaurant and room service add flexibility if you’d rather eat close to home after a long day outside. For active downtime, the fitness facilities are available for a surcharge, and there’s also a nightclub on site for guests who want to stay in the loop after dark.

Reviewers often mention that the location supports both quick sightseeing and longer walks, especially toward Plaka, which is about 2 km away, and toward major landmarks further up the hill. From here, you can plan a day around the National Archaeological Museum (around 1 km), then continue on to the Acropolis area (about 4 km) and the Parthenon (roughly 4 km). Families and solo explorers alike tend to like the mix of practical services such as a lift and luggage storage, plus the hotel’s guest education on local ecosystems and culture, which offers a different angle on Athens beyond the usual monuments. If you’re looking for a calm, no-frills stay with helpful touches and a central starting point, Athens Hawks Urban fits the bill.
