The main problem with this property is the location. It is a good 30min walk away from the city. Theres a complimentary shuttle which you need to book ahead of time. Otherwise, rooms are beautiful and clean with good heating. Fully equips kitchen. But no amenities such as shower cap, tooth brush etc

Best spot to stay in Queenstown!

Beautiful views and friendliest staff. Clean room every day! Had the apartment on 3rd floor and just perfect. Shuttle runs to town every hour on the hour and picks up at same spot which is very convenient cause parking in queenstown is hard. Restaurant is amazing for breakfast and dinner!

We spent 3 days at the Rees. Really enjoyed our stay. Because of limited parking in Queenstown, expect to Uber/taxi to the town as it is a 40 minute walk to town. The service, the views and the rooms were all excellent. Would highly recommend.

The stay was excellent at The Rees hotel we had excellent service by staff and having the shuttle service was a great service. We had an awesome view from our room and spoiled by the room service we had twice a day and not to mention the chocolates we received every night in our room. We highly recommend this hotel and we will be back.
