Manu Temple is 5.6 km from Moustache Manali, while Circuit House is 6 km away. The nearest airport is Kullu–Manali Airport, 55 km from the hostel.

Moustache manali felt like a haven for us. We stayed here for two nights; the hospitality, services provided by the hotel staff was impeccable. They helped us get a cab for sightseeing. We thoroughly enjoyed the trip because of Mohit’s(our cab driver) helpful nature who went the extra mile to click our cute pictures. The food at the hotel was also savoring with a variety of options for breakfast and dinner.

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.
