The Chedi is truly a 5 star hotel in every way. We recently stayed here for 2 nights and were very impressed. Here are the highlights: 1. Room: Spacious and well designed. Plenty of room for storage and lots of gadgets (electronic light shades, gas fireplace with remote control, etc.). Our Bed was extremely comfortable. The shower featured charming Aqua di Parma toiletries. 2. Hotel Grounds: The Chedi is exquisitely designed and decorated. 3. Spa/Pool: Immaculate and beautiful pool that flows outdoors. Very peaceful unless guests bring their infants/toddlers to play in the pool area (which happened during our stay but was clearly not the hotel's fault at all.) 4. Dining: The complimentary breakfast was lavish, expertly prepared and varied. The bread basket, especially the sour dough brown bread, was worth every calorie! 5. James Bond: There was an interesting James Bond exhibit at the hotel during our stay which featured some of his clothes, a gun and assorted memorabilia. You could also pay to drive in an old car while watching a simulated curvy mountain road. Tip: Vistors staying in Andermatt are able to purchase a discounted tourist pass which entitles you to free rides on area gondolas and trains. The 1st Chedi Concierge we spoke with didn't mention it when we asked him about hiking and area activities. Later that day, a 2nd Chedi Concierge knew about the visitor pass but said that it would be "quicker" to purchase it at the Tourist Information bureau. Our visit to the Andermatt TI was anything but quick! We had to sign up for emails using their tablet, answer questions about where we were from, listen to a speech about the area, etc... Laborious process but in the end we got our local pass which thereafter was a helpful thing to have.
