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.

Geweldig leuk en authentiek hotel in Grindelwald. Lekkere kamer met uitzicht op de Eiger, koffie/thee op de kamer, nette douche en prima bed. Balkon erbij was helemaal tof. Ontbijt dik in orde, je kan een ei laten klaarmaken zoals je wilt. Mensen zijn suoer vriendelijk en behulpzaam. Ligt wel wat hoger op de berg dus een flinke klim maar dat maakt t ook rustiger.

オーナーとスタッフの皆さんは大変親切で感じが良かった。 時節柄、部屋が少し暑く、時々窓を明け換気した。 また、高台にあり、トランクを運ぶのが最初だけ辛かった。駅まえの大通りに出るには、一つ下に位置するホテルの駐車場を通る道が楽と分かった。 一度、昼間だがシャワーのお湯がでなくて困った事があったが、概ね居心地良いホテルだった。

チェックインからチェックアウトまでの全ての対応が素晴らしかったです。 とても気持ち良く滞在ができました。 かなり急な坂の上にあるので重いスーツケースを運ぶのが大変でしたが、駅からの距離は大したことないので楽しめました。冷蔵庫はないので注意してください。 それ以外は素晴らしいの一言。朝食もとても美味しく、連泊後の早朝チェックアウトにも、「ベストを尽くすよ」と言ってテイクアウトを用意してくれました。パンやヨーグルトが入っており、こちらも大変美味しかったです。 坂の上にあるだけあって、眺めは最高でした。 宿泊客の多くが、ホテルの共有テラスや部屋のテラスから眺めを満喫していました。 文句なしの星５です。おすすめします。

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!
