The view is absolutely amazing! the mountain view is just right outside the window. The room is comfortable. The environment is ver peaceful. You could sit at the common area's balcony to relax. The receptionist is super friendly and nice.
Is quite steep walk if you missed the last bus to the nearby bus stop of the hostel and the last bus is before 7pm if i remember correctly. If you are with big luggage is wise to plan to reach Grindelwald train station earlier to catch the bus as it is much easier to take the bus! There's no warm/hot water during the 2nd night so it was freezing to get the shower done.

Options were great! The gluten free oatmeal and that rice cakes were the best!
There were a lot more children than expected. When reading “youth hostel” I expected the others to be in and around the teen/ young adult/ adult age range. This wouldn’t have been an issue, but I was awoken by screaming children and felt the atmosphere would have been better without kids running around or yelling in the dormitory halls.

Location and available transportation created a very restrictive situation. Last bus up to that elevated location was 19:00

Nice views of the Jungfrau from every room. All staff were friendly. it is dormitory rooms, but we were 3 families, 10 people. so we booked 6 beds room, 4 beds room and stayed like family room. Warm water came out well in shared shower room. Wifi worked well. Breakfast was beyond my expectations
price is expensive but it's normal in Grindelwald during high-season. All costs have gone up a lot after pandemic. We walked to the station, but it was difficult to go up because it was a hill, so we took a bus. you need to check bus schedule. (1-2 time per hour) The property provides free bus tickets.

The Swiss milk for breakfast was delicious, the milk was delicious, and the window had a beautiful view of the snow-capped mountains. Just at the beginning of the check in, we arrived in the evening, did not find a way to get to the hotel by bus, but carried our luggage up the gravel road. The rainy road was a little slippery, and the journey was very difficult, but it was worth it to see the scenery outside the window.
There is no hot water for bathing after 10pm.

Amazing views, very clean and nice breakfast with plenty of options
We needed a room for 2 adults and 3 kids (8, 7 and 2 years old), the original booking allowed us to pay/book for a room with 4 beds, as the little one will sleep with one of the adults. The booking was changed by the staff and an extra bed was added, which we never used and had to paid anyway. When we explained the situation we were pretty much ignored. As a result we paid extra 90 euros for a 2 years old kid bed that was not even used. Please note that the room was for 4 adults max, it never said anything about paying extra for a little kid. We even didn't know that the booking was changed until we arrived to the hostel.

lovely mountain view from the room, which opens into a balcony. due to the location it feels very quiet and peaceful. the included breakfast was great as well. rooms, toilets and showers are spacious. although do note that soap, shampoo, towels are not provided. i also had to pay a deposit for a hairdryer to use, so other toiletries may be available as well! the staff were very friendly and accomodating to any questions/requests
the location was hard to get to as the property has mentioned its up a slope. there is a bus which runs every 30-60 minutes but the last bus is quite early at around 7pm. not a big issue, but just something to be aware of and work your schedule around if you dont want to walk up! also, as it was summer, when you open the doors to the balcony or the windows there's a tendency to get insects flying into your room.
