The hotel offers a convenient shuttle service to the train station. The property itself is quite spacious, and the complimentary drinks are a nice touch. The pool is also very comfortable, and the breakfast spread is excellent.

I was assigned a room on the first floor, and when I asked if a room on the second floor was available, I was told the hotel was full. However, a friend who made a last-minute booking for the same room type on the same day found plenty of availability. I don't understand why.

Response from Property: Dear Valued GuestThank you for sharing your experience with us. We can certainly understand why the situation may initially have appeared contradictory.We would therefore like to clarify an important distinction. Online availability of a particular room category does not automatically mean that rooms within this category are available on a specific floor. The location and floor can vary among rooms belonging to the same category.At the time of your request, our team was unfortunately unable to offer you a suitable alternative on the second floor or above. The fact that the same room category may still have appeared available online therefore does not necessarily contradict the information provided by our colleagues at the hotel.Nevertheless, we understand that you would have preferred a different room location and regret that we could not accommodate this particular request during your stay.Should you visit us again, we would be happy to note your preferred floor in advance and will always do our best to accommodate such requests subject to availability.Your Sunstar Grindelwald Team

The Sunstar Hotel Grindelwald, directly facing the snow-capped mountains, is especially beautiful on a sunny day. Sitting on the balcony eating instant noodles was such a treat! The only downside is the lack of air conditioning; even the fan felt hot. However, there's a significant temperature difference between morning and evening. In the morning, wearing a short-sleeved shirt on the balcony felt cold (around 10 degrees Celsius), but it was hot at night. The breakfast was very rich, and the views were absolutely stunning. The mini-fridge was restocked daily with complimentary drinks, beer, and water. A special thank you to the hotel shuttle driver who picked us up from the train station during a heavy downpour and brought us back to the hotel. Upholding integrity first, this was a very satisfying experience.

Response from Property: Dear Valued Guest,thank you very much for your exceptionally warm and detailed review.We are truly delighted that you enjoyed every aspect of your stay at Sunstar Hotel Grindelwald. It is wonderful to know that our spectacular mountain views, generous breakfast, and complimentary minibar, replenished daily, made your experience so memorable.We are especially grateful for your kind words about our shuttle driver. Personal recognition like this means a great deal to our team and inspires us to continue delivering genuine Swiss hospitality every day.We also appreciate your comments regarding the absence of air conditioning. Our rooms are intentionally not equipped with air conditioning, and this is clearly communicated on all booking platforms. Thanks to our Alpine location, this has traditionally not been necessary. In addition, today's environmental regulations make the installation of such systems increasingly challenging. On a few exceptionally warm summer days, temperatures can still rise higher than expected. We are therefore especially pleased that this did not overshadow your otherwise outstanding stay.We would be honoured to welcome you back to Sunstar Hotel Grindelwald and create even more unforgettable memories surrounded by the breathtaking beauty of the Swiss Alps.Your Sunstar Grindelwald Team

The service here doesn't live up to the price. Breakfast was a bit chaotic, and the food was quite ordinary. Other services were just average too. On the bright side, the hotel offers a shuttle service from the train station, which is a great perk. The balcony view is fantastic, and the Firstbahn cable car station is right across from the hotel.

Response from Property: Dear Valued Guest,Thank you for taking the time to share such open and balanced feedback about your stay.We are very pleased that the magnificent view from your balcony, our location directly opposite the First cable car and our shuttle service to and from the railway station were among the highlights of your time in Grindelwald.At the same time, we regret that our service, and particularly the breakfast experience, did not fully meet your expectations. Breakfast should offer not only a generous selection, but also a pleasant and well organised start to the day. We therefore take your comments regarding the atmosphere and the selection during your visit seriously.We also respect your perception of the value for money. Our pricing reflects, among other factors, Switzerland’s high operating and labour costs as well as the general price structure of our destination. At the same time, we recognise that a corresponding price naturally creates equally high expectations regarding service and quality. What ultimately matters is that the entire stay feels worth the experience.We therefore particularly appreciate that, alongside your criticism, you also highlighted the aspects of your stay that you genuinely enjoyed. Thank you for your balanced feedback.Your Sunstar Grindelwald Team

This hotel, nestled at the foot of Jungfraujoch, boasts an excellent location. It's super convenient, right across from the entrance to First Mountain. The views are also incredible. When I checked in, the hotel even offered a complimentary glass of champagne. Sipping champagne while gazing at the snowy mountains was simply amazing!

Response from Property: Dear Valued Guest,Champagne in your glass, snow covered peaks before your eyes and Grindelwald right on your doorstep. A stay in the Swiss Alps could hardly begin in a more beautiful way.We are delighted that your arrival already became such a memorable moment. These are precisely the little experiences we love to create, because to us, a holiday does not begin after check in, but with the very first welcome.Our location directly opposite the First cable car makes it wonderfully easy to step from the hotel straight into a day of mountain adventures. Knowing that the spectacular Grindelwald scenery provided the backdrop to your stay makes your feedback even more special.Thank you for your wonderful words. Perhaps on your next visit, we will have the pleasure of raising another glass to your return to Grindelwald.Your Sunstar Grindelwald Team

The exquisite suite was very spacious! The front desk gave us an enormous balcony directly facing the Eiger, and the views were unbeatable. The front desk staff was enthusiastic and helped me check in early. The breakfast was quite rich for European standards. I will definitely choose this place again when I come to Grindelwald.

Response from Property: Valued Guest,thank you very much for your fantastic score of 10 out of 10 and for taking us on such a wonderfully detailed journey through your stay.We are particularly delighted that you highlighted the excellent value for money. A generous breakfast in the morning, a welcome drink upon arrival and a complimentary minibar in your room are among the details through which we hope to make a stay with us just a little more special.We especially loved your description of the balcony. The magnificent Grindelwald mountains during the day and a sky filled with stars at night. Sometimes, very little more is needed for a perfect moment in the Swiss Alps. We are therefore delighted that you felt so comfortable in your room on the fourth floor.Having your room ready when you arrived at 11 am was, of course, a particularly fortunate beginning to your stay. Whenever occupancy allows, we are always pleased to give our guests the opportunity to arrive and relax a little earlier.Thank you also for your thoughtful comments regarding our fitness and wellness facilities. We certainly understand that extended opening hours would be attractive for guests wishing to exercise or swim after a full day exploring Grindelwald. We equally appreciate that traditional European sauna culture can initially feel rather unfamiliar to guests from different cultural backgrounds.Your recommendation of our hotel to travellers who appreciate tranquillity and nature is particularly meaningful to us. Perhaps that is one of the true luxuries of Grindelwald. Staying centrally, having the mountains beyond your balcony and ending the day beneath an extraordinary Alpine sky.We hope these memories remain with you for a long time and that we will have the pleasure of welcoming you back one day.Your Sunstar Grindelwald Team

This is the worst hotel experience I've ever had. I don't know why they charge over 5000 a night with this kind of service. 1. After checking in last night, the room lost power 3 times. They finally moved me to another room, but one of the lamps there was also broken (see pic 2). 2. The breakfast was sparse (see pic 3). 3. The service was poor. 4. The hygiene was terrible, with flies buzzing all over the lobby.

Response from Property: Dear Valued Guest,Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We sincerely regret that your stay did not meet your expectations and apologise for the inconveniences you experienced.The power interruptions you encountered were caused by an unexpected technical fault. While such incidents are fortunately very rare, they can occasionally occur despite regular maintenance. Our team reacted immediately by relocating you to another room, and the technical issue was fully resolved the following day.Regarding your comments about flies in the lobby, our hotel is located in the heart of the beautiful Alpine countryside. During the summer months, insects can occasionally find their way into public areas despite our continuous cleaning routines and preventive measures. While we do everything possible to minimise this, it cannot be completely avoided in a natural mountain environment.We are also sorry to learn that our breakfast did not meet your expectations. Our breakfast buffet is consistently praised by the vast majority of our guests for its wide selection, freshness, and quality. It is therefore particularly disappointing to hear that your experience was different. Your feedback has been shared with our kitchen team and will be carefully reviewed.We also noticed your comment regarding the room rate of more than CHF 5,000 per night. We would like to clarify that our Junior Suites are typically priced between approximately CHF 800 and CHF 1,200 per night during the high season, depending on the booking conditions and travel dates. We are therefore unable to reconcile the amount mentioned in your review. It may refer to the total cost of your reservation or include additional services. Should this be the case, we would be pleased to review the details with you.We consciously pursue a premium pricing strategy that reflects the Swiss standard of living and the high quality standards we strive to offer. Nevertheless, we firmly believe that every guest deserves an exceptional experience. We therefore sincerely regret that we were unable to provide this during your stay.Thank you once again for your honest feedback. We wish you all the best and hope that one day we may have the opportunity to restore your confidence in our hotel.Your Sunstar Grindelwald Team

I had a wonderful stay at the Sunstar Hotel in Grindelwald. The hotel's location is excellent, making it very convenient for exploring Grindelwald and the surrounding areas. The views from the hotel are beautiful, especially the mountain scenery. The breakfast was also very good, with a wide selection, and enjoying the mountain views while eating breakfast was a perfect start to the day. The room was comfortable and clean, and the hotel facilities were well-maintained. Overall, it was a comfortable and pleasant stay. If I come back to Grindelwald in the future, I would be happy to stay here again.

This is my second time staying at this hotel, and the experience was fantastic. I reserved an underground parking spot in advance, which is crucial during peak tourist season in Grindelwald. First mountain is right across the street, and the bus stop is just a short walk across the road.

Response from Property: Dear Valued Guest,A second stay with us and another collection of wonderful memories to take home. There are few greater compliments a hotel could receive.We are delighted that your return to Grindelwald was once again such a positive experience. Especially during the busy travel season, having an underground parking space arranged in advance can certainly make arrival that much more comfortable. The car can enjoy a little holiday of its own while Grindelwald begins right outside our doors.With the First cable car directly opposite and the bus stop only a few steps away, exploring our beautiful mountain surroundings could hardly be more convenient.Thank you for choosing us once again and for placing your trust in our hotel. After a second visit, we naturally hope there might one day be a third. It would be a pleasure to welcome you back.Your Sunstar Grindelwald Team

The hotel is built into the mountainside, offering stunning views of the snow-capped peaks. The First Mountain cable car is directly opposite, and there's a bus stop right outside. The train station is also within walking distance. The location is absolutely fantastic, making it super convenient for sightseeing. Our room even had a balcony, and the overall hotel environment is just beautiful. Thumbs up! 👍
