Not bad
The stay was okey but could be much better. Disappointed with no AC at all or at least a fan. It was super hot in the lobby and in my room as well. As a solution the staff suggested to open the windows to get some air. The windows don't have a mosquito net so all the bugs and flies were coming as soon as you open the window. Another big disappointment that there is no iron in the hotel for the guests.

Love this hotel! It was clean, furnished beautifully, and the view was INCREDIBLE. But be warned: it is up a *very* steep hill, you may want to reconsider if your elderly or have a physical impairment. Another warning I wish we knew: No one staffs the hotel after 6pm so if you're arriving late you need to let them know ahead of time. We got there around 10pm and were locked out for over half an hour. The only place they list this is in the small print if you click the hyperlink under further information. I really wish the hotel would make this more obvious, like in the email they send you a few days before your stay. (I swear they give you every other detail except the fact that you have to check in before 6pm). But those two notes aside, the hotel was amazing and I would highly recommend it. The breakfast was really nice too! I would absolutely stay here again. It's definitely a little off the beaten path, but thats why the view is so amazing, totally worth it if you can make it up the hill with your luggage!

Amazing! Will be coming back!
Wow! This hotel exceeded my expectations! I loved how cozy it felt, how clean it was, and how easy check in was. I had to check in late and they did an amazing job in making my check in seamless. The breakfast is great with an amazing view. The overall view from the hotel is incredible! I love that it is higher up than the town. Do not bring big luggage though! The walk up was definitely steep at times (the only negative).

Couldn't ask for a hotel with a more stunning view of the Grindelwald area. Made even better when looking out the windows in the morning during their delicious breakfast. Very comfortable rooms and wonderful shared spaces. Only precaution to note is that it's an uphill walk from the train station.

Hotel Sonnenberg was absolutely fantastic. The views, hospitality, location, and cleanliness were all beyond my expectations. If you are willing to accept the walk up (take as much rest as you need), this is the perfect place to stay in Grindelwald.
