Is Moonlight Sonata 3rd movement actually hard?
For an advanced pianist, the sonata may be very easy [though still probably not enough to be called "one of the easiest pieces of classical music"]. For an average student, though, the third movement is quite difficult.
What piano grade is Moonlight Sonata 3rd movement?
The 3rd movement of “The Moonlight" is DipABRSM and ARSM which are post-Grade 8 qualifications. It's a difficult question to answer because many piano students don't take their piano studies beyond Grade 5–6 [Intermediate level].
