The Chedi Andermatt

Attractive, secure and convenient payment process: Four years ago, there were already initial considerations at The Chedi Andermatt to offer cryptocurrencies as a payment service for guests. However, the basic prerequisite was to make the transaction as secure as possible and to avoid risky exchange rate fluctuations. With WL Crypto Payments from Worldline, the starting signal for acceptance has now been given. As an innovative hotel partner, The Chedi Andermatt is one of the first selected Swiss hotels to start using Worldline’s cryptocurrency infrastructure at the front desk.

 

Starting with an amount of CHF 200.00, hotel guests can now pay with Bitcoin and Ethereum at The Chedi Andermatt as easily as with other traditional payment methods at the front desk. WL Crypto Payments enables the hotel business to offer payments in cryptocurrencies without exposing guests to volatility risk- crypto transactions are converted into Swiss francs immediately after confirmation.

"Worldline stands for the acceptance of all national and international means of payment and offers state-of-the-art payment technology in the interest of a smooth payment experience for guests. This has recently included the acceptance of cryptocurrencies as a means of payment at the POS. We are delighted that The Chedi Andermatt, as an industry pioneer, is backing this exciting new payment method," said Marc Schluep, CEO of Worldline Switzerland.

After the launch of the new payment option with cryptocurrencies at The Chedi Andermatt, further crypto projects are planned together with Bitcoin Suisse.

Surrounded by the wonderful nature and year-round beauty of the Swiss Alps, The Chedi Andermatt elegantly blends in with the classic Andermatt ski chalets that characterize the image of this timelessly charming resort in the Ursern Valley. Designed by renowned architect Jean-Michel Gathy of Denniston Architects, the 5-star deluxe hotel, which opened in 2013, perfectly blends authentic Swiss Alpine chic with Asian style. Traditional materials such as warm woods and natural stone create an intimate and stylish atmosphere. This is reflected in the 123 spacious guest rooms and suites, as well as in the hotel-wide facilities. These include:

With the gourmet restaurant The Japanese by The Chedi Andermatt at 2,300 meters above sea level, the hotel also operates the highest Japanese restaurant in Switzerland. In addition, The Japanese Restaurant has each been awarded a Michelin star since 2017 and The Japanese by The Chedi Andermatt since 2021. The Chedi Andermatt was repeatedly awarded the top ranking by the Forbes Travel Guide in 2020 and continues to rank among the best hotels in Europe.
