First the main picture of a beautiful lake and mountain view is not from or near the hotel. The hotel is located on top of a hill without direct car access. Need to park and then hike 30 degree uphill for 5 minutes to reach the door. One of the heater missing control knob but fixed the following day. There are sharp edge at bed and easy to get hurt in this tight room. The toilet bowl is right next to the shower drain pan that the corner of the drain pan make it uncomfortable to sit down. It is hard to describe though. The breakfast staff is nice and friendly. But the location and property do noy justiy the cost.

Lovely hotel. Great staff and breakfast and fantastic view of mountains. Just know that the 15 min walk from rail station is up the side of a steep mountain and it’s a car free area so no taxi and no hotel transport. Travel light.

My fantastic experience staying here – like many of the hotels, though in Grindelwald, there is a bit of a climb up the hill to get to the hotel. The hotel itself is well run and has excellent facilities. Very highly recommended.

Lovely property with homely feel and walkable to Grindelwald town and all it offers. Not all rooms have a view (ours didn't), and it is steep walk from the car park which is worth considering if you have limited mobility.

Lovely stay at the Chalet!

We only stayed one night and it was perfect! Our key was waiting at the front desk, lovely room, good size, comfortable and with a balcony and view! Breakfast starts at 7:30, and it was perfect too, with a lovely view! Fresh bread, trouts, local cheeses and meats! A wonderful stay at a chalet! We drove, there’s a small parking and then you need to walk a little uphill with the bags to reach the hotel. Totally worth it!

The staff at Sonnenberg are so friendly and helpful. The room was a little cramped but the shared cozy space including deck with fantastic views helped! Breakfast was delicious and the location while up a steep hill, was a welcome quiet change from the busy crowded town. Highly recommend this place because of the staff and homey feel.

A hotel with the best views

Very friendly hotel staff, despite the high slope, the amazing Iger north wall view from the room is the best quality of this hotel. However, it is a bit of a shame that the shower situation in the room is not good.

The property has a great location and incredible views! The only thing to keep in mind is that it is that there is a steep walk to the hotel from the train station and if you have heavy luggage, then it takes some cardio strength to carry it to the hotel. But once to reach there, it is worth it. The hotel is quite nice, staff is very friendly and helpful and the views of the Grindelwald valley from the hotel are amazing!
