It was the perfect place to stay before and after our Kilimanjaro trek. The property is very big, clean, and comfortable. Our room was also great. There is a bar and restaurant (very good food) and plenty of common areas to relax. The staff were great! They were funny and helpful. They made our stay very enjoyable. Thank you!

We had such a nice stay at this accommodation and I would definitely recommend it! The rooms are very cozy, the food is so good and the team is just amazing. The hostel is not directly in the city but it’s a calm and friendly neighbourhood and the drive to the city (about 12min) is cheap and it’s very good to reach. Cosmas (the owner) is such a kind and heartwarming person and tried everything to make sure we felt comfortable and like home. He was like our personal tour guide and showed us everything - villages, local food, the city, beautiful nature places and organised some trips like a Safari. Truly the best hostel experience I’ve ever had, this is so much more than just a place where you sleep. It felt like home and is an experience we will never forget, thank you Rafiki! If you want to really have a local experience in Tanzania - local food, the culture and people, beautiful nature, the language - this is the place to be!

Everything was really good! Spacious room, big beds and comfortable. Bathrooms and showers are very clean, and the shower is very powerful, the best I had in all Tanzania. The location is very central, 9 minutes walking from bus station, and many restaurants and shops around. Gladys the receptionist was so good, very kind and with good recommendations about the tours in Moshi. Breakfast is very good, all the staff are nice.

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.
