The Chedi Andermatt

Andermatt, Switzerland / 03.2011 - 01.2013

The Chedi Andermatt is Andermatt Swiss Alps AG’s premier hotel. In this project, the largest hotel scheme to be completed in Uri canton, the interplay between architecture and design served to create an exclusive atmosphere of “Alpine chic”. Rated as a category 5-star-superior hotel, the Chedi Andermatt boasts 50,000m2 of various highlights including 123 gorgeous rooms and suites, two restaurants, a lounge, various bars and an exclusive wellness oasis with fitness centre.

PORR started construction works in March 2011, just three weeks after the awarding of the contract. During this time, the construction plant and equipment (seven tower cranes, three pumping towers, electricity and water supplies, containers for personnel and material as well as site development) were planned and specified.

Bellevue Hotel & Appartement Development AG (c/o Andermatt Swiss Alps AG)

Largest hotel project in Uri canton.

Around 24,000m3 of concrete was used for the structural works in the first three months, and after just 22 months, the interior, with a usable area of 50,000m2, was ready for fitting-out.

The hotel was opened in December 2013. Freehold apartments in the hotel complex have been available since 2015.

What ultimately counts in the construction business is successfully completed projects. PORR has many of these.
