We would definitely stay at the Rees again. The view is splendid. We had a lovely dinner on Friday night; perfect for us since we had just arrived and didn't want to go out of the hotel. In fact, the only criticism is the breakfast which is a little challenging. Small room, too many guests, not enough staff...

These are full apartments with a full kitchen and laundry. The apartment was spacious with a big balcony overlooking the river. My son and I were on a father-son trip. We each had our own bedroom and bathroom! We stayed here for 3 nights and had a wonderful time. We even managed to do a load of laundry! The staff was very friendly and helpful. The only downside is that it is not close to town. You either have to drive or take a shuttle that they provide.

The hotel offers beautiful lake views, which is definitely its highlight. However, it was a bit disappointing that the property has a large number of rooms and feels somewhat mass-produced. The buildings appear to be made with inexpensive metal materials, which gave it an atmosphere similar to large housing complexes in Japan rather than a refined resort.
