Amazing

There was only a female front desk lady who was very helpful and nice (don’t have her name) FACILITIES: the complex is so outdated and run down. AMENITIES: they don’t even offer water in the rooms, so they sale it at the bar for U$S for 0.8 liter water bottle.

Hotel with great view. You cant forget what you will see from your room.

Fantastic hotel and fantastic village. Everything is good. Breakfast is perfect.

Breathtaking views, staff super friendly and helpful. Couldn't have asked for a better stay.

I love this hotel. I brought my small dog and they gave me a special room with a cute mat and bowl, treats, large terrace, etc. The breakfast is amazing. The views unparalleled! My only disappointment is that the spa and wellness area is so superb, but the hours make it (intentionally?) inconvenient to enjoy. If check-out is at 11am, and the spa doesn’t open until 11am… do they want to prohibit guests from using it the morning before leaving? It closes at 8pm as well… so, if you spend the day out on a hike or skiing, come back hoping to have a lovely evening with dinner and spa before bedtime, there’s not really enough time before 8pm when it closes. I was only able to enjoy the spa quickly one late afternoon, having to rush between the days activities and getting dressed and ready again to go back out to the town for dinner. It was the only way to enjoy the spa at all in a 3 night stay! I offer this feedback because everything else about the Sunstar is so fantastic! The staff, the property! I love it. It’s just such a shame the way they have limited hours of the spa. If they are trying to save money, they could open it early and late, closing in the midday when they know guests are out in the mountains. Anyways, I will return often nonetheless!

Love this hotel! Have stayed many times and will keep coming back!

Love this hotel - especially the spa amenities! I love Grindelwald and will continue to stay here when I visit.

If you can stay in the back side of this hotel where you can take a look into great mountains, you will be sure to love this hotel. Staffs are friendly. The only downside is that the dining hall is crowded with some group tourists who do not show respect to others in the morning. (for breakfast)

we waited 25 minutes to check in. There was only one staffer at the front desk and only one party in front of us which somehow took forever to pay their hotel bill. We were told there was a problem with our reservation. We asked to speak with a manager. One showed up and was not helpful. The woman, Andrea, to took our email inquiry showed up and would not speak with us. We asked to speak with Suoervisor who was in a meeting. We had to come back later in day to speak with her and check in. She was not particularly friendly either. We will not recommend this hotel nor stay there again. The rooms were good but it wasn’t worth dealing with the rude staff

OK experience. Seemed understaffed in the month of April.

Clean hotel with fantastic view of Eiger. Location is very convenient to go to First. They give you information about trains/cable cars and a discount card to get to First. Breakfast is great. Parking is either free (if you're lucky) in front of the hotel or SF10/day in the garage. Indoor pool is spacious with the great view to Eiger.

Comfortable room in a location right in the middle of all the shops and restaurants, also the lift for the mountain is right across the street. There was free parking up top but it was pretty limited, I also noted a parking garage under the hotel but I am not sure if there was a charge or not. The breakfast was complementary with a wide selection of very good food. I will definitely stay here next time I am in Grindelwald.

Dear SangIt comes as no surprise to read your 1 Star Review since you decided to place your feedback on many other platforms with the same unconstructive criticism. You have complained about everything without being able to give a reasonable explanation as to why you don't like our hotel and have denied every help or solution offered by us, but instead you were very rude to our team. Our hotel is very well maintained and the room you stayed in was a brand-new Premium room. If you give us feedback it would be nice if you told the truth. We are one of the very few hotels that offers a mini bar with water and other soft drinks as well as a coffee machine free of charge in every room. We wish you all the best but, in all fairness, it might be a nice thing to reflect on your words and behavior, because our amazing team tried everything to make your stay unforgettable and we are very proud of them. Our hotel is super clean and in a very good condition and we are sure all the other great reviews from our other guests will confirm that.
