My wife and I stayed for a night before Kilimanjaro and had a very relaxing experience with delicious food and warm atmosphere. The staff was so welcoming, kind, helping, and smiling. I highly recommend this little piece of paradise to anyone visiting Moshi.

This hostel was awesome! Amazing facilities, the bar and restaurant were great. The area brings a calm aura. The staff were so friendly and helpful with all questions about the area and advice on what to do. Organised airport transfer and a lift to the ATM. One of the nicest hostels I’ve stayed at in Africa ☺️

The host is an amazing human being. Really helpful and willing to help as much as he can while knowing when it’s time to give space to his guest. Like he said, he’s like a DJ who try to be as flexible and adaptive as possible. The accommodation is linked to an NGO that has beautiful projects ongoing. And if you want to experience Moshi and its surroundings like a local and with the local price, Cosmos will be here to make it possible. Unbelievable experience!

All hostels in Moshi

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

    The breakfast was amazing. Cosmas cooked for us each morning and he was an amazing host. I would definitely recommend staying here. Cosmas is very accommodating and can help you with anything you need. He looked after our bags while we climbed kili. We wish we could have stayed longer here ! He is one of the best hostel hosts out there !

    Breakfast was great, lots of different options. Wilema always made sure the hostel was clean, worked around the clock, organized and also sprayed every night for mosquitos. It was in great location for going to Materuni to see the waterfall. There was hot shower water. Opportunity for volunteering, very nice front yard and house.

    I had an amazing time at Backyard Hostel Moshi. Extremely kind local staff that will help you out anytime and give you valuable tips. Delicious local foods for breakfast and for dinner. Very welcoming atmosphere and common area in the beautiful garden. I felt comfortable and safe in my room as a solo traveler. I really enjoyed the good vibes and local authentic feeling and am very grateful for my time there. Also the options for trips around Moshi to Kili, Hot springs, waterfalls etc. are amazing.
