Come help us serve drinks and in the kitchen!

The hostel is modern, very clean, and well-equipped (gym, cinema…). The rooms are spacious with two private bathrooms, and some of the staff were kind. However, I didn't feel very welcomed as a volunteer. There was no proper tour or introduction, and the atmosphere felt more professional than friendly. The tasks didn't match the description (the bar was closed, so we only worked in the kitchen). We brought it up, but nothing really changed. Athens is amazing, and the group of volunteers was great.

I volunteered at the hostel for 4 weeks. The location felt safe, the metro was close, and the building, especially the volunteers' room, was lovely. The owner was open to communication, which I appreciated. However, I believe the experience could be improved with clearer and warmer guidance for new volunteers, more transparency about roles (the only task was dishwashing), and ensuring the volunteers' room is reserved exclusively for volunteers, not for guests (as they said in the begining). With small improvements, this could be a truly great place to volunteer! 💗

The the hostel is super new and very nice. The room was great, it had 2 bathrooms, the beds were new and had big windows. The location was a little far from the center but it was next to the metro and the neighborhood was very quiet. The common areas were wonderful, both the cafe and the gym and others. My shift was painting and it is something I love to do and it was very good, even though there were some miscommunications with the owner. I wish the staff were more welcoming. When I arrived my bed was not clean and no one explained anything about the hostel to me. I missed hostel vibes.

This hostel was lovely! Amazing facilities and food/drinks. The work load was very easy as I could manage it well with going out and exploring Athens. Only issue I found was the bar being closed and some slight miscommunication with allowances for volunteers. Other than this it was brilliant!

I stayed at the hostel and had a good time there. The work was just washing up and not working in the bar as it said on Worldpackers. Most of the time it was easy to manage, but when large school classes came it was too much work for one person. The cooks are all very nice and I will miss them. The hostel is very clean. Unfortunately the walls are very thin and you can always hear construction work. The schedule is fixed and I couldn't move my shifts.. The best part of the experience was the other volunteers :)

It was a great experience, get to know Athens was incredible, I stayed at the Urban but I went to the other hostel some times and it was nice too, the work was easy and just four hours so you have lots of free time, they send the schedule in advance so you can plan your week and days off are always respected, the staff were always nice to me.

It was a very good experience at Athens Hawks Hostel. The schedule was released ahead of time and it was a great place to meet other travellers. You could not ask for better location and I was grateful that they put the volunteers in women's only dorms.

I had a great time with Athens Hawks! The work was easy and straightforward. It was great to be able to work in a social environment to meet other travelers who wanted to explore Athens, and more of Greece, as well!
