The Chedi Andermatt
East meets West opulence by the slopes
VERIFIED LUXURY
Here are five things to know about us:
1. We verify luxury. Our highly trained inspectors visit every property we rate, evaluating based on up to 900 objective criteria. Our hotel stays span a minimum of two nights.
2. We pay our own way. No one can buy a rating; all ratings are earned through our objective inspection process.
3. Our global team of inspectors are anonymous at all times, so they have the same experience as a typical guest.
4. While we inspect both service and facility, our Star Rating system emphasizes service because your experience at a hotel, restaurant or spa goes beyond looks — how it makes you feel is what you will remember most.
5. We started in1958 as Mobil Travel Guide, and we created the original Five-Star rating system for hospitality.

When it opened in 2013 across from the
Andermatt train station, The Chedi Andermatt came as a big surprise. Designed
by star architect Jean-Michel Gathy, the property resembles a supersized,
high-rise Swiss chalet on the outside, but the interiors deftly blend
homegrown alpine-chic with serene Asian accents for a Heidi-goes-Zen look.
The East-meets-West fusion isn't limited
to mere décor, though. The property's constellation
of restaurants includes a Japanese kitchen dishing up inventive sushi,
and its spa features Asian treatments designed to balance your
chakras.
But if that's too much
transcendental calm, the luxury hotel’s indoor and outdoor pools,
18-hole golf course, fully stocked wine cellar and cigar library are on
hand to help you indulge.
The Chedi's sprawling Bar and Living
Room may be the best place to appreciate the
multicultural mix. Tibetan temple bells sit in rows next
to reindeer heads; contemporary divans wearing on-trend faux fur
blankets look out on bookshelves lined with ceramic Chinese bowls. The
effect underscores the elegant simplicity both Swiss and Asian aesthetics
share, and winds up looking happily seamless.
