Their breast is rufous and their belly a paler yellowish rufous. Subspecies A. r. hellmayri has a whitish chin and rufous throat. Voice: The grey-hooded attila's song is a "slow series of 4-7 emphasized, fluted whee notes, which gradually rise in pitch and strength before the last one, which fades out".

Their wings are blackish brown with wide cinnamon edges on the coverts that show as two wing bars. Their tail is blackish brown. Their throat and underparts are grayish with a yellowish wash on the belly, flanks, and undertail coverts. They have a black iris, a black bill, and black legs and feet.
