Spectacular views, a comfortable stay, with exceptional service.
Pros:

Location was spectacular. Getting to the hotel from the nearest train station takes a bit of time (around 20-30 minutes), but the trek is completely worth it as you will be treated to unbelievable views upon arrival. Our room had breakfast included. Breakfast was no frills but exactly what we needed. The operators of the hotel were amazing. Chris is a fantastic human being and took care of us marvelously during our stay. Selena and Auda were kind and friendly and extremely helpful. I can't speak highly enough of our time at Hotel Restaurant Sonnenberg.

Cons:

I really don't have any complaints. We loved our stay at this hotel and would happily stay there again.

A pleasant couple of days in a comfortable environment with majestic views!!
Pros:

Beautiful location and views, delicious food. Cozy atmosphere; loved the restaurant with games for the family. The staff was very friendly and the rooms were comfortable, seemed recently renovated. Great for ski in ski out and sledding. Family friendly; our six year old has decided he wants to work for Chris when he grows up :P

Cons:

Could be challenge to get to if you have less able-bodied people with you, so just think ahead and work with the private transport company in Murren, who are fabulous.

Perfect location for hiking around Murren
Pros:

Perfect location for hiking in Murren and around and a good start for the Northface trail.
Good breakfast, clean and comfortable rooms and an unforgatable view of the all three northfaces of Jungfrau, Monch and Eiger, permanently in sight.

The personnel and the owner of the Hotel were very kind and helpfull.

The road from Murren to the Hotel takes around half an hour uphill and it is not recommended for troller-bagages (the path is paved with small stones). Best way at arrival is to take the funicular from Murren up to Allmendhubbel and from there to hike down to the hotel about 10 minutes. It is not so tiersome this way.

Should you have trollers as luggage I also recommend to contact the property. They could provide transportation.
At departure, hiking down to Murren is easy and recommendable (since it is downhill) having always the mountains in sight.

We stayed for three nights but two nights is optimal. We hiked Northface trail which we recommend via Wasserfall Sprutz and arriving at Gimmewald were we had the hightlight of the jurney having a cold beer in a hot day on the terrace (upstairs) at Pension Gimmewald.

Hotel Sonnenberg is a jewel. It was the best hotel of our trip in the alps.
Pros:

Just off the beaten path, Hotel Sonnenberg is a lovely, inviting place with warm staff and surprisingly excellent food. Rooms were well appointed with soft towels and the best beds we had all trip. The host, Chris, organized laundry service and took pains to make us comfortable.

Njöt av lugnet.
Pros:

Hotellet ligger fantastiskt fint en bit upp från Mürren. Utsikt över Eiger, Silverhorn och Mönch är svårslagen.
Ägaren och hans personal är väldigt trevliga och tillmötes gående och det serveras riktigt god mat.
Rummen fräscha och bekväma. Ett hotell som vi rekommenderar och som vi hoppas på att komma tillbaka till.

Peaceful with amazing views!
Pros:

Nestled in the heart of Mürren with breathtaking views of the Swiss Alps, Sonnenberg is an absolute gem for travelers seeking comfort, charm, and authenticity. The rooms are spotless, cozy, and perfectly suited for a restful stay after a day of exploring the mountains. What truly sets this place apart is the incredible peace and quiet — the kind you can only find in a car-free village high in the Alps.
We all need a break from the hustle and bustle of the world, and Sonnenberg offers exactly that: a serene, soul-refreshing retreat surrounded by nature's beauty. The staff is exceptionally warm and welcoming, making you feel at home the moment you arrive. Whether you're hiking, or simply soaking in the scenery, Sonnenberg provides the perfect base.
Quiet, peaceful, and unforgettable — this place captures the true spirit of the Swiss Alps!

Cons:

In a car free town, be prepared to pull your luggage up and down hills. The hotel does offer courier service for a fee.

Very welcoming hotel with great food and a nice breakfast.
Pros:

Really nice hotel with an excellent owner Christoph. We ate there and the meal was excellent as was the wine and the whiskey. Very friendly atmosphere and very good breakfast. Great views.

Cons:

A bit hard to get to but worth the effort. We arrived by train and had to get a funicular and then walk down to it.

Beautiful hut; tricky location
Pros:

Beautiful setting above Mürren with incredible views; room was very modern and clean with private shower and bath, great water pressure / heat.

Cons:

Location difficult to access after the closure of the Allmenhubelbahn at 5pm daily. No shuttle running in mid-summer. A steep long walk up from Murren; restaurant, patio etc. seemed closed and no longer in business
