Lovely place to stay, stunning views from your room. Comfortable and quiet.
Pros:

Stayed at the Rees for the view and its proximity to central Queenstown.

Cons:

Didn't like that there were no "Do not disturb" buttons or cards for your door. The cleaners knocked on your door quite early in the mornings.

Very pleasant hotel, great service and friendly accommodating staff.
Pros:

The view from our room was lovely. The room itself was a reasonable size with good amenities. The hotel location five minutes drive from the city centre was compensated by the provision of the courtesy bus which ran every hour starting at 8am.

Cons:

Whilst the dining room/restaurant was lovely, it was not open all the time. A cafe area (even though the bar beside the reception served coffee etc.) would be helpful.
Also being on level 2 and having to take a lift from the main entrance/exit on level 7 to level 3 and then walk across the carpark to take another lift to level 2 was at times annoying.

Luxury stay by the lake
Pros:

The room was lovely. The beds and pillows were VERY comfortable which was a welcome relief after a day of skiing. The heated floors helped to get ski gloves dry before the next day. The ski locker and facilities all worked really well to store our ski gear overnight. Staff were amazing and all very helpful. It was definitely a luxury experience.

Cons:

The shuttle bus only ran once every hour, on the hour, although it was only a 10 minute trip into town. Whilst I planned on using the shuttle to get into the heart of town, we didn't use it at all because we didn't have the time to wait until the one bus per hour, so we caught an Uber which was relatively inexpensive and very quick. If I knew this before booking the accommodation I probably would have booked closer to town. Breakfast didn't start until 7am, so we didn't have the opportunity to try it before needing to get on the Cardrona bus at 7:50am each morning - a hearty breakfast would have been very welcome.
