Cheap Hotels in Moshi

The town of Moshi is the gateway to Africa's highest peak, Mount Kilimanjaro. Most visitors arrive with their sights set on the mountain, using the town as a base for treks organized through the many local outfitters on Mawenzi Road. After a climb, the nearby Kikuletwa Hot Springs offer a perfect place to soak tired muscles in warm, spring-fed pools surrounded by fig trees. The town center itself is a relaxed introduction to Tanzanian life, with coffee shops sourcing beans from the fertile slopes of the surrounding region.

Moshi is primarily a destination for adventure travelers and trekkers, though its calm atmosphere also suits those looking for a quieter cultural stop before a safari. The areas around the clock tower and along the roads leading out toward the mountain provide the most convenient accommodation options, with good access to guides, gear rental, and local restaurants. The town is easily reached via Kilimanjaro International Airport, about an hour's drive away, or by bus from Arusha.

On HOTEVI, you'll find 19 places to stay in and around Moshi. The selection is practical and trekker-focused, dominated by comfortable budget and mid-range hotels that specialize in welcoming climbing groups. You can also find a few serene garden lodges on the outskirts, offering more space and tranquility after a long journey or a demanding hike.
