KEX Hostel and Hotel Reykjavik

Nice stay for a couple of days in Reykjavik. We had a private room with claen and spacious bathroom and a convenient sofa bed to accomodate children. Close to city centre and a quick drive to the bs station

Stayed in the room with a private bathroom, good value for money in Reykjavik. The staff was very friendly and accommodating, a special thanks for storing my suitcase a day before check-in. Haven't tried the breakfast option, but it looked nice. No kettle/microwave in the room, but we were provided with a card to the hostel floors(there's a kitchen there). The bed was nice and cozy, no complaints here.

Nice place, unfortunately construction next door makes it hard to sleep.

Second time staying here. Great funky fun vibe. As Reykjavick has expanded it's a great spot, just a few blocks from one of the main streets for restaurants, shops, and bars. Would stay there again.

Beautiful property with easy access to area around. Rooms were clean and loved having lockers. Bathrooms were a bit untidy but nothing to be unexpected when staying in a hostel. Be sure to bring your own towel as they charge for rental of same (1000 Icelandic Kronas). Easy check in/out with 24 hour front desk service. Would recommend

Comfortable beds in room with a sea view. Good beer.

The staff is very friendly, helpful, and patient. The beds were very comfortable and the housekeeping staff was very diligent about cleaning. I stayed in a six bedroom all women and this hostel was very kind to accommodate me sleeping on a bottom bunk. There is construction in the area so it can be noisy, but the location is excellent.

The door handle came off and I had to put it back on myself or be locked inside the dorm.

Our family stayed in a private room. The room was quiet and spacious. We used the communal kitchen, which was great for family breakfasts. The only downside is we misunderstood the parking fees. The parking in front of the hotel charges 24/7, so we were surprised by the parking fees.

It was really nice people were friendly staff was helpful

I loved that KEX is at the heart of Reykjavik

The accommodations were cool and eclectic. Breakfast was very tasty and quite satisfying.

Comfortable for the price, but the noise was a major drawback. It wasn’t construction noise — it was doors slamming at all hours of the night. At first, I assumed it was inconsiderate guests coming in late, but it quickly became clear it was just how the doors closed, and it happened constantly — about every 10 minutes — from the time I went to bed until I finally gave up and got up at 6 a.m. Earplugs didn’t help, as the impact shook the room and woke me each time. It’s unfortunate, because otherwise the stay was great — excellent service, convenient location, and good amenities.

The room was very clean, the bed comfortable, the location was really good and the people were nice.

Staff was very fun and friendly! Stayed in the "compact double room" on second floor, and it was very clean and secure, with great view. Only main downside is the construction going on right now, but I still had a lovely experience, and would return.

Bed was great. There was breakfast options great kitchen. Someone was stealing food though.

Would stay again

I loved being on the water. Would have been really nice to have had an ocean view room. It was super close to downtown and the Main Street. The Hopp scooter is the best way to get around in the city without a lot of walking. I love Iceland and feel I’m 1% Icelandic now. It’s just such a beautiful country and so much to do and see. Even if it’s a scooter ride down the street to the houses and take a ride through the streets and see their homes as you scoot around. They are really beautiful and worth seeing. I can’t remember the price of the scooter services but let me tell you that they are worth every ISK lol can’t beat happy hour at the pubs. 999.00 ISK for a pint. That pretty good. Just order a few before last call and you’re good but I’m sure I don’t have to tell you that lol i got the Iceland AC/DC shirt. So sweet. Gotta check it it out if you’re a AC/DC fan. The sights outside of the city is up to you. I did the Blue Lagoon. The volcano area was closed off so that didn’t happen but the Blue Lagoon is just spectacular and so surreal. I’m not able to walk around as much so I went with the scooter trips and the Blue Lagoon. It just means I have to come back home to see them again and hopefully do the helicopter tour of the volcano and the possibility the tectonic plate scuba diving but definitely snowmobiling on the glacier. You can spend a summer in Iceland and still never see it all lol I miss it it so much. It made my life. I’ve never been so peaceful in my life. Cheer

I absolutely love this place. The staff is helpful, kind and welcoming.
