The trusted word from curious travellers and tiny house lovers about their SWEETS hotel experience.
What a great experience to have our own private island in the midst of the Amstel river! I would highly recommend this hotel room. It is probably the sweetest spot in Amsterdam to spend a night!
“The place is beautiful. We were amazed by the place, you feel like you’re in the middle of nowhere and everything. We would have liked to spend more time enjoying the place. You don’t always get to say: I slept in a bridge house.”
— Diana, Mexico
“This is an amazing, unique place to stay. We felt privileged to be able to spend time inside a piece of history. The bridge house had been cleverly and stylishly updated and turned into a compact accommodation for two. We loved it.”
— Hendrika
“Had a wonderful stay. Beautiful surroundings, very comfortable bed, and original stay. We thought it was great!”
— Merle, Netherlands
“Favorite place that we’ve stayed in. The location was so neat and it was awesome to have panoramic windows around the entire building. You could see every angle of the canal and all of the people walking by.”
— Amelia, Utah
“Staying in the Bridge House Oosterdoksdraaibrug was like living in our own little James Bond film. The glass entrance on the ground floor had us feeling so cool the moment we walked in! The space was bigger than expected, and the 360-degree views were absolutely mind-blowing.”
— Viola, Italy
“From my warm bed in the Beltbrug house I had a fantastic view over the windmill. Delicious coffee and a great shower. In short, a true experience.”
— Annie Kuiper, Hoogland
“SWEETS hotel is a whole new experience for a night away. I stayed in one of the beautiful bridge houses in the middle of Amsterdam. Hearing ambient sounds and seeing swans from my window gave me the feeling of my own secret place in the city. Truly unique!”
— Jill Oostveen, Amersfoort
“This is the sweetest hotel we’ve ever stayed in! It was a super romantic experience because you have your own little gem along the canal with great views over the bridge and the Scheepvaartmuseum. Although it’s located in the city centre with lots of cool spots all around it feels like a quiet place in town because of the privacy you have. Bridge house Scharrebiersluis is nicely decorated with small details referring to its history. The bathroom is small but pretty with a great shower. I am definitely triggered to stay in more SWEETS bridge houses, I think there is no better way to explore Amsterdam!”
— Suki Verwiel, Cape Town
“A unique, small, character house in the centre of Amsterdam. A peaceful location from which you can access the busy city centre. No hotel lobby, no night porter, no lift, and no long hotel corridors, just your very own front door and some wonderful solitude. You are not a visitor, you’re a part of the city. Thank you for this unique experience.”
— Kiki & Jogchem Bagijn, Amsterdam
What a sweet little house in a fantastic spot in Amsterdam. Loved the small details inside and out. Highly recommended!
“Cute house, great spot, heavenly bed. This is a very special hotel. You have to experience it firsthand to know just how special it really is.”
— Igor Sancisi, Amsterdam
“It is an absolutely marvelous find to walk into a bridge house and get the door unlocked with a phone code. The tiny house is located just next to the Vondelpark with only cyclists passing the bridge. There are nice cafés in the neighborhood which is primarily residential. So only locals in a great spot in Amsterdam. A little jewel. Amenities are good, room is spotless.”
— Petr Symersky
