Our 3 night stay at Sonnenberg Dormitory was simply unforgettable. The location is pure magic tucked away above Mürren with stunning views all around. Yes, there’s a little hike up from the village, but every step is rewarded tenfold once you arrive. Chris, our host, is one of the kindest souls we’ve met. We shared a beautiful last evening with him, gathered around delicious wine, cheese, and charcuterie, enjoying warm and genuine conversation. It felt like staying with an old friend. Thank you, Chris and the lovely team, for your generosity, your stories, and for making us feel so welcome.

I absolutely LOVED this hostel. It's just a beautiful as the photos show. The character of the heritage building is lovely. It oozes with the feeling of a secluded summer lodge, yet is close enough to interlaken to get to everything easily. The staff were kind, helpful and welcoming. They provided me gluten free buns for breakfast.

Picturesque place, amazing view and great staff. The interior is lovely, piano and guitars are available for those who want to play. 😜😊 Toilets and bathrooms were very clean. The weather was bad during our stay, it was raining, but that didn't affect the beauty of this place. The most beautiful village in the Swiss Alps.

I loved this accomodation so much! Me and my partner stayed here for two nights and we enjoyed our stay thoroughly. The hotel is in an amazing location and the walk there is very scenic. There is a farmer not too far away who sells amazing local handmade goods at a reasonable price, as well as a gorgeous lookout point. It has an amazing living/dining room area with comfortable sofas, beautiful wooden furniture and a piano you can play. The whole place is very homey, warm and soulful. We both loved the vibes of it! The shared kitchen is very well equipped, it has everything one could possibly need - even a fondue maker! The hosts are also very kind and helpful. They were cheerful, eager to give us recommendations regarding what is worth to see in the region and to help us navigate the town. This place exceeded all out expectations, and if we're lucky enough to go back to Wengen someday, we already know where we're staying :)

Just the staff makes this place worth it, both in the reception and the bar you find amazing people that provide great recommendations and good conversations. But the view is worth every single franc paid. We loved our stay here, and found it lovely that it is not right in the noisy small center of Lauterbrunnen but still a short walk or bus away.

All hostels in Kandersteg

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.
