Beneath the renowned Gemstock peak of the Useren valley, the Chedi Andermatt resort – owned by Andermatt Swiss Alps AG – is now open for business. The Swiss resort's 25,833sq ft (2,399sq m) spa is being operated by GHM and its 10 treatment rooms are used for a range of offerings using products by Alpienne, ila, Ren and SpaRitual. The spa can accommodate 35-40 guests daily.
Thermal facilities include a bio sauna, finnish sauna and steambath, plus an outdoor lap pool and indoor 35m (115ft) swimming pool.
Jean-Michel Gathy, of the renowned Malasia-based company Denniston International Architects, designed the traditional alpine resort and its interior using traditional materials.
The resort has been built to MINERGIE Swiss Quality standards, which require the use of materials and labour from the local area to ensure minimal environmental impact while establishing economic benefits for the region.
Developed by Orascom Development Holding AG, on 1.4 million square metres (345 acres) of land, the resort features its own golf course, newly constructed indoor and outdoor sports centres and half a dozen four to five-star hotels, plus 490 spacious apartments in 42 buildings and 25 villas.
Andermatt sits within close proximity of major Swiss Alpine transit routes. It can be reached from Stuttgart or Munich in four hours, from Milan in two hours and from Lucerne and Zurich in just 90 minutes.
