Perfect location. Views are incredible. Beds are quite firm and no AC which made the room a bit warm, but that’s typical of what we’ve experienced. Overall very nice property.

Absolutely loved this hotel and staff were so helpful and friendly. The hotel was in close proximity to grindelwald first. The views from room were breathtaking. Grindelwald was just beautiful and this hotel was perfect for us. Special recognition goes to Diago at the bar and Kieran at hotel reception. Both these staff were very accommodating and helpful. The Swiss people are friendliest people in general.

Overall, the hotel is pretty good. The room is a bit small but it has a great view of the Eiger Mountain (I believe it’s the Eiger). The location is quite convenient, with easy access to most tourist attractions in the area, especially First Mountain. If I had to complain, I’d mention that no air conditioning is tough in the summertime, but that’s common for most hotels in the area.

Very Enjoyable Hotel
The Sunstar is a great hotel for visiting Grindelwald as it has amazing views, friendly staff, and a great breakfast (the location is pretty good, too). The room we had was Mountain View and our balcony let us just sit an be in awe of the Alps. They also have rooms with a view of the town—those would be okay, but the streets have lots of pedestrians and might be less enjoyable for those who like privacy. The pool is good but has limited hours, closing at 8:00. The staff were always friendly (our kiddo got a welcome gift) and helpful. Location-wise, know that you want to go to the end of the train line, Grindelwald, not Grindelwald Terminal, to get here most easily. From there, it’s about a 7 to 10 minute walk (depending on your speed on hills). They have a shuttle, but we always walked.

We booked a premium room and the view from the balcony was spectacular! The hotel was very clean and had great facilities such as a pool, sun terrace, steam room and lounge bar with amazing views of the Eiger. It was very quiet and the room was a good size with comfy beds. The hotel was very busy and sometimes there seemed to be too few staff to keep up with clearing away at breakfast or dealing with large parties checking in. But the staff were all lovely and did their best to keep queuing to a minimum. We would definitely stay here again as it is probably the best positioned hotel in Grindelwald. Can’t wait to return.
