We had a great stay at Tombstone - staff friendly and very helpful. Good rooms and facilities and a really nice ambience. Great to be able to take the bikes and tour around Picton and Waikawa for an afternoon. Yummy scones for breakfast. We'll no doubt be back for another stay.

This is the nicest backpackers my partner and I have stayed in. Gary was very friendly (only saw Nikki in passing), gave us a tour of the place and he was in charge of brekkie while we were there and he did a great job - delicious scones! Our room was lovely, comfy bed, good size, electric blanket and right near the bathroom. It's a quick walk to town and is right across from a cemetery which is actually very interesting to walk around in - there are graves there from over a century ago! Free unlimited wifi was a bonus. There is a pool table, table tennis, a spa and a movie room. Also has nice big fridge with labels for your food and a full kitchen. I would definitely recommend staying there and would stay again for sure. Thank you Gary! :)

Hi
Travelling with 3 mates in the south Island.
Tombstone is the best accommodation we had.
Garry is super friendly, the place is awesomely shapped as a graveyard / tomb.
There is a spa pool!!
The beds are super comfy!!
I will come back each time we are commuting between the islands!!

Not somewhere I would stay again it's mainly for people who aren't wanting to spend much money but for the room we got I must admit it was comfy and good sized with a well appointed bathroom and had free wifi and wasn't far from town so it suits the position of town well I can't say much for the front entrance hahaha tombstone it is

Gary and Niki are super nice. The scones they serve for breakfast are awesome! Very clean. (Needs more hooks to hang clothes.) Good location and easy to find. They will give you a ride to the dock if you have a tour to go to. Book the tour through them as they know everyone. They got us on the mail run at the last minute and it was a terrific tour!!!
The hostel has a clean kitchen and other amenities like ping pong table, exercise equipment, whirlpool Jacuzzi, bikes, etc.
