My wife and I had a fantastic stay at Hotel Sonnenberg! Our room in the chalet building was gorgeous with an incredible balcony and view of Grindelwald and the alps! The hotel is just up the hill from the train station which makes the walk up worth it to get a view better than any hotel in the valley! Breakfast was excellent with fresh bread and pastries baked right there in Grindelwald! The staff were lovely and George even coordinated a bottle of Champagne in our room to celebrate my wife’s birthday. Couldn’t recommend more!

Great property, fantastic views, wonderful appointments, and great host. Biggest challenge was the uphill climb with luggage. Again, worth the climb for the spectacular views. Would love to come back!

The way to the hotel from their parking lot is a difficult climb for seniors. No elevator to use from the reception to the rooms! It has good view of the mountain.

Classic Swiss hotel with charming rooms and lobby. Beautiful Mountain View from the room. The hotel is located up a very steep hill but that is the only downside.

Great stay! Just be prepared for the steep hill to come and go to town, we didn’t mind and preferred the great views from the room for the hike up. Small rooms but clean and would definitely stay here again!
