"How nice: sleeping in a bridge keeper's house on the Amstel"
Gisela Williams / 17th November 2017
"You don’t need a lobby… The city itself becomes the hotel."
Eva Wiseman / 10th June 2018
"The whole city becomes the hotel, with its rooms scattered along the water."
Francesca Street / 6th July 2018
"Tiny but luxurious – they're the perfect place to while away an evening on the water."
Venetia Rainey / Issue 118, November 2018
"It’s these quirks combined with the uniqueness of the properties, both in terms of design and location, that makes SWEETS hotel such an irresistible addition to Amsterdam’s heaving hotel scene."
Steve Korver / 2018
"Now 28 of them have become individually styled hotel suites, and as a group reflect the roller-coaster history of 20th-century architecture. Highly recommended."
Lyndsey Matthews / 11th July 2018
"Who needs a hotel lobby when the city — and its canals — are right on your doorstep?"
Rodney Bolt / 2018
"Views, by definition, are of the canals, and lodging in the suites provides an entrée into neighbourhoods you might not otherwise reach."
Elly Parsons / 17th March 2018
"SWEETS hotel is polishing these forgotten gems, offering experience-hungry travellers a truly local, historic experience."
Rodney Bolt / 14th May 2018
"Tried, tested & recommended. 9/10"

De Volkskrant / 23rd February 2018

Pauline Egge / 28th February 2018

Megan McCarty / 8th November 2018
"Use SWEETS hotel as an excuse to stay in a neighborhood you otherwise wouldn’t."
Jamie Robinson / 9th July 2018
"Transforming bridge houses along Amsterdam’s canal network into a string of dinky hotel rooms with unparalleled waterside views."
Paul J. DeVries / 23rd October 2018
"From the Kattenslootbrug, designed in 1950s Amsterdam School style, to the Amstelschutsluis, on a lock only accessible by boat and dating back to 1673, no two houses are the same."
Hortence Chen / 15th May 2018
"SWEETS hotel valt hoe dan ook in de categorie ’hier moet je een keer hebben geslapen’."
Andrea Romano / 8th July 2018

Sharla Ault / 8th November 2018
