Kex Hostel

Reykjavík 101, Reykjavík

Set just 250 meters from Laugarvegur shopping street, this central Reykjavik hostel offers guest rooms and dormitory rooms with free Wi-Fi access. Harpa Concert Hall is 1 km away.

A seating area and a wardrobe feature in all rooms at Kex Hostel. Some rooms have a private bathroom with shower. The Fly bus takes us directly from the airport to the main stn and from there it drops you just outside the hostel. Remember if you arrive early before 3 pm just don’t go to the hostel but from the main bus station of Fly bus take a tour - the tour bus takes your luggage in the lower compartment with you, that way you don’t waste time . The South coast adventure tour is the best. The hostel does not give you towels so bring yours. They give lockers, but bring your padlock but not a tiny one but a medium padlock. The showers have nice warm water and there are many. So don’t worry but bring your own soap - shampoo and conditioner, yes they have hair dryers. There is kitchen and it’s nice. It’s a nice place to socialize and meet people, if you don’t like meeting people why the hell you come to a hostel. Don’t come dirty with smelling clothes and socks, take a shower and wash your undies and socks. Take the Free walking tour of city it’s just 1.5 hours tour but it will give you a lot of information. The down town starts just 2 mins from the street behind the hostel and yes there is a awesome community pool there, it’s cheap and a nice place to enjoy the thermal heated pool. The hostel does not check people before 3 pm bcoz they have to clean the rooms and tidy up the beds and change sheets. My personal experience with the front desk staff was awesome, every person there is elagant polite and friendly. I don’t remember ask names but Andres and Makkaa were fabulous. I messed up my bookings with my pickup on my return to the airport and Makkaa fixed it by calling the bus company in a few minutes. She is fantabulous and full of energy. Yes they help you with keeping your luggage at no cost for few hours and it’s safe. What else you want? Just pack your bags and book this place and get your A moving Areevedechi, Huggu, Sayonara , Fir milenge, Cya
