Hi,
Since yesterday, I couldn’t access the whole GW2 website using the Google Chrome browser even though I didn’t do any changes to my computer or anything.

I had to manually force Chrome to avoid using the TLS1.2 protocol to make the website show up again by adding —ssl-version-max=tls1.1 to my Chrome shortcut.

I’ve had the same problem, with the same temporary workaround. It looks very much like the server has the buggy version of an IIS patch, as detailed here: https://support.microsoft.com/en-au/kb/2992611 or for a less technical version, here: http://odetodata.com/2014/11/microsoft-patch-ms14-066-leads-to-https-problems-with-iis-and-google-chrome/
