SWEETS - Wiegbrug

Unique stay in great location

Pros: The stay at SWEETS Wiegbrug is very unique! We found it to be very comfortable and cozy. We loved the location and being slightly out of the touristic parts of Amsterdam as it felt peaceful - but still really accessible to the centre.

Cons: Found the place to be a little dusty and also had cleaners come in midway through our stay which wasn’t communicated to us.

What a great and unusual way to stay in Amsterdam!

Pros: Great little suite! So nicely done and such a unique experience. I loved the industrial history to the suite.

Cons: Books kept falling off the book shelves!

Very magical with a pinch of impracticality

Pros: The views, cleanliness, uniqueness, charm, modern inside, comfy bed, clear guide on the home, interesting to see the life outside like bikers, trams and ferries passing and the bride rising, we were lucky to see the meteor shower from our window, the french cafe across the street

Cons: The chairs were uncomfortable, we couldn't open the door to the wider stairs and it could have been nice to use that as a balcony to enjoy the water views, the outside was quite dirty-even if it was isolated people seemed to have scattered trash near the premises, a bit far from the center though walkable

Pros: This was a unique location not too far from the city where you can watch the boats go past the apartment. The bed was really comfy and it was a cozy place to get away for a few days :)

Cons: As everyone has said its a bit noisy with the trams but the ear plugs helped with that :)

Unforgettable experience and got a taste of Amsterdam and its history.

Pros: I don’t mind downloading apps to get in the room. I think that is a very convenient and efficient way to get inside the property. The area is good walking distance to centraal. Amazing view. good amenities and made good use of their space. Super cozy and great stay with a partner.

Cons: It can get quite bright in the room - so make sure to bring a sleep mask. The trams track is right next to the property, so bear in mind that it can get loud. You get a few pranksters who ring the doorbell and spray paint at the door, random people sometimes hang at the staircase area… which the hotel cannot help at all but does become bothersome when it’s 5am and someone is ringing at your doorbell.

Perfect week if you enjoy the city going about its business!

Pros: Such a fun location with the bridge and canal. Perfect tram stop for all Amsterdam just across the road and good cafes and bars easy walking.

Cons: Generally all good. Yes, the trams were loud going over the bridge but that was expected and great fun to watch!

Pros: This place was beyond PERFECT! Hands down the best place Iv stayed! It was so unique and beautiful. The heating made it feel so homely. The best was the most comfy bed I stayed in! The location was perfect! 10 minute tram ride to the centre and the tram stop was right outside!! A little shop opposite and an Aldi down the road. Really recommend going to food Hallen the food was out standing! There was a little glass hut outside in the morning for coffee and croissants. Yes there was noise from the tram stop with the trams going past but believe me where ever you stay in Amsterdam there is going to be noise!! I highly recommend staying here!! Thankyou sweets hotel for the experience!!

Cons: Absolutely nothing it was perfect! The only thing I feel it was missing was a tv but it honestly didn’t matter the place was perfect enough!

ABSOLUTELY OUTSTANDING

Pros: Fabulous place to stay, immaculately clean, warm, cosy and the location over hanging the canal makes for a magical experience. We loved the atmosphere and ambience of being right on the street, the bridge opened a few times and its not something you see everyday. Theres a duck that quacks every morning and if you love nature like us youll find it hilarious. The tram stop on line 13 takes you directly to central station and everywhere in between. Absolutely faultless. Defo recommended.

Cons: We personally could not fault the place at all, impossible to dislike anything.

Amazing location, unique property with comfy bed.

Pros: The property was well located, clean and cosy with amazing canal views. The tram to central is right outside. There is a food market dehallen just 6 mins walk away plus many shops and cafes nearby. The bed was super comfy!!! The hosts made me feel welcome with a personal message and the key pass for the door worked perfectly fine on first try. The property is unique and one I would definitely recommend. I’ve stayed many places in Amsterdam and this is one of my favourites, can’t wait to explore more of SWEETS bridge houses 🙌

Cons: The property got very cold when the heating went off, luckily it was back on with 5-10 mins. To be fair it was January and -2c outside. Also if visiting when the weather is cold be aware it can get icy outside the front door. Mugs for tea/coffee would be good 😊

Excellent and exciting place for city-mountaineers.

Pros: The Wiegbrug is a great place and it is being excellently taken care off, which largely compensates for the fact that it is rather small. The noisiness (mainly the tram, until it stops running) is quite doable, but I can imagine that it would be an issue if you are sensitive to it. One of the nice details is for example the bluetooth speaker for you to use, and as it is a free standing construction, you do not need to be too concerned either with turning up the volume.

Cons: More than the noise, the close by streetlight bothered me. The blinds in front of the windows do not block sufficiently the rather strong light. If one or two window shades are be added close to the bed, this would be easily solved. The key app also did not work when I arrived. The office was quite responsive, even late at night, but during the twenty minutes they tried to fix it, it started to rain heavily, so it did make a quite big difference to me. In the end, they did not manage to fix the electronic key, but gave me the padlock code of a box next to the door which held the physical key. I would have appreciated it, if they had given me that code immediately when I called the first time.
