Loved my stay here and will be staying again next time I visit! The location was perfect, ideally situated to everywhere we wanted to be, while also remaining peaceful and relaxing. The room and the hotel itself were spotless and the staff were lovely. I was really impressed with my stay here.
Amazing stay from start to finish - staff were really accommodating and facilities in our apartment were perfect - everything from washing powder to choice of coffee capsules was covered ! And the view from our room was breathtaking!! Car parking was a plus even though the hotel have shuttles running to and from Queenstown. Next time we visit NZ we’ll definitely stay at The Rees!!
It was absolutely amazing place to stay in Queenstown.
Not only The room was super comfortable but also the restaurant was super nice.
We had a great time there.
Lovely location, great view of the lake. Complimentary shuttle service to town made life easy, and the staff were awesome. Don’t look in the wine room….
The hotel (1 bedroom unit) was incredible. Super clean, modern yet felt like home. Furniture incredibly comfortable as was the bed. The towels and sheets all top level too. They have a shuttle that runs you to the center of town on the hour that was never too crowded that they couldn't accomodate. The views were stunning with a large balcony with seating overlooking lake tekaipu.
room with a view !" and the staff are excellent
