About this stay
Comfortable bridge house on the doorstep of Amsterdam’s vibrant Vondelpark. Your bedroom window is the perfect spot for watching locals on their daily bicycle commute. Skip across to the park and enjoy the greenest part of the city, or relax at one of the street-side cafés. The neighbourhood has a village feel, but in a 30-minute walk you are at the Leidseplein or the music venue Paradiso. Enjoy the public picnic table on the banks of the canal, directly adjacent to your bridge house.
The space
From 1974 to 2017, bridge house Theophile de Bockbrug accommodated the city's bridge keepers, who opened and closed the bridge for passing waterway traffic. In 2017, when the local government centralized bridge control, the bridge house started a new chapter as one of the 28 suites of SWEETS hotel. As with every SWEET, Theophile de Bockbrug's interior is inspired by its architectural history.
