The Chedi Andermatt, an opulent five-star lodge nestled within the coronary heart of the Swiss Alps, has started accepting Bitcoin and Ethereum payments, Swiss newspaper Blick reports.
From now on, the hotel’s guests can select one of the two largest cryptocurrencies if they pay greater than 200 Swiss francs (roughly $218).
This was not a spontaneous decision. The lodge has been mulling over accepting cryptocurrencies for 4 years.
Jean-Yves Blatt claims that growing cryptocurrency acceptance around the world has finally prompted the Chedi Andermatt to open its doors to the newfangled coins.
We have long known that cryptocurrencies even have a future in hotel operations.
Designed by Jean-Michel Gathy, the deluxe hotel aims to combine Swiss traditions with Asian modernity in opposition to the backdrop of Alpine tranquility.
The lodge has 123 lavish suites with Hästens boxspring beds. It additionally gives a Michelin-starred Japanese restaurant, saunas, yoga lessons and a healthy heart.
When it comes to outdoor actions, the hotel boasts its personal golf course, sports center and different amenities.
Provided that the worth of a double room begins from 500 francs ($544), the lodge has made a smart transfer by catering to the rising variety of crypto millionaires.
As reported, the restaurant group of American billionaires announced that restaurant group Landry’s would begin accepting Bitcoin back in April.
