The luxury Rees Hotel Queenstown on the shores of Lake Wakatipu is rewarding you just for reading SnowsBest.
I love a luxury hotel at the end of a long ski day – open fires, ski valets to take your gear, bar men to deliver red wine, deep bath tubs to soak in, the list goes on.
If you like to ski or snowboard and you love the finer things in life then The Rees Hotel Queenstown has your name on it, if I haven’t booked in first.
The Rees Hotel Queenstown has a coveted absolute lakefront position with dramatic vistas of both Lake Wakatipu and the mountain amphitheatre that thrusts skyward from the lake shores.
Sixty spacious hotel rooms and ninety apartments (one to three bedroom) boast free wi-fi, iPod docking stations, under floor bathroom heating and large balconies to drink in the views. Apartments also have gas fireplaces, gourmet kitchens and laundry facilities.
