The Chedi Andermatt

At the Chedi, the timber façades light up in the evening above the courtyard water, with mountains all around.

A week here, month by month

I come to the Chedi for a holiday shared between food and mountains, with its 5-metre cheese cellar. The spa is not adults-only, though: under-16s can use it from 7am to 7pm.

The Chedi Andermatt among village buildings and mountains

9 min readHow we write the guide

  1. A Junior for 3

    For 3 people, ask for an Alpine Junior Suite: it sleeps up to 3 and has a spacious balcony.

  2. Allow for the parking

    If you arrive by car, allow CHF 30 per day for parking alongside the stay. Beyond 5 nights, the charge becomes a one-off CHF 150 per car.

  3. Let the butler take over

    In winter, leave the equipment with the Chedi’s Ski Butler for storage, maintenance and delivery to the slopes. The service also includes transport to local ski areas.

What The Chedi Andermatt is

The Chedi stands in Andermatt in the Urseren Valley, among the chalets of a village at 1,440 metres. Inside, dark wood and natural stone meet an Asian palette of black, red and brown. The spa covers 2,400 m², with saunas, steam rooms and a Tibetan-inspired relaxation lounge.11

In the Lumina Guide

Lumina Guide 2027

In the guide because it fills a day without skiing too: at the Chedi, time in the hotel counts as much as time in the mountains.

The 5 things that matter, as guests tell them

What do The Chedi Andermatt’s guests say? They write it in their reviews, even those who only came for a drink or dinner: we read every one and tell the 5 things that matter, from the location to the bill.

  1. Location

    9 in 10 guests who mention it are happy with it. The Gütsch gondola is convenient for a ski week. Traffic, though, disturbs one guest from early morning until evening.

  2. Room

    9 in 10 guests who mention it are happy with it. Guests enjoy the space, fireplaces and tablet controls. Some technical details need attention: on one stay the blinds do not work properly, while the fireplace in the friends’ room fails.

  3. Staff and service

    7 in 10 guests who mention it are happy with it. One guest remembers a small room fault fixed within 30 minutes. On another stay, luggage collection and ice ordered by phone need repeated follow-ups and still do not arrive as expected.

  4. Breakfast

    6 in 10 guests who mention it are happy with it. Fruit and the range at the buffet earn praise. Orders at the table can move more slowly: one guest waits almost 25 minutes for 2 fried eggs; others dislike the extra charges for some cooked dishes.

  5. Price

    Some guests feel the room, pools and attentive service justify the bill. Others find prices high for what they receive, even when The Japanese is a success.

288 guests said so on Google, from 13 July 2025 to 23 October 2026. The reviews include visits to restaurants and bars without an overnight stay. The other hotels are assessed on the same 5 themes. The score is the average of what they say, from 0 if they speak of it very badly to 10 if they speak of it very well. Where only a few mention something, the score stays close to the guide’s average: a handful of voices does not make a reputation.

The Japanese dining room with tables and dark walls

The Japanese

For a Japanese dinner, I would choose Modern Omakase with wine or sake. The Japanese opens Wednesday to Sunday from 6.30pm to 11pm.1

The Restaurant

At The Restaurant, the vegetarian and vegan menu is worth a look too. From the dining room you can watch the open kitchen at work.1

Bikes at reception

On a long weekend of road cycling, a guest says the bikes are taken in hand on arrival. After the rides, the spa becomes the place to recover.

A bath for the baby

A family with an 18-month-old daughter finds a small baby bath among the room provisions. The gift bear is still the child’s companion after the trip.

A suite facing building work

Writing in July 2026, a guest on a second consecutive stay reports building work outside its 2-bedroom suite again. They had asked about works before arrival; facing the site affects their stay.
