KEX, meaning 'biscuit' in Icelandic, is a social hostel located in a former biscuit factory in the heart of Reykjavik.

Accommodation options include dormitories (including female-only dorms), private double rooms (Double Plus with ensuite bathroom and sea view, Double Standard with shared bathroom, and Twin Private), and family rooms (four- and six-bed dorms with bunk and double beds; baby cribs available upon request). Linen is not included and there is a mandatory linen fee of 1100 ISK per person per stay. Two guest kitchenettes are available, and breakfast (classic or vegan) can be booked at reception.
