The Guinness Book of World Records officially designated Hotel Puntagrande in El Hierro, Spain as the world’s smallest hotel in 1984. But what’s especially notable about this “hotelito” isn’t its small size, but its spectacular location on a piece of lava rock jutting out into the Atlantic Ocean. The original building, a cultural site protected by the Canary Islands government, dates back to 1830. Inside, the hotel looks something like a small nautical museum, its rough-hewn stone walls lined with antique compasses, maps, and bronze-plated boat registrations.
Maritime memorabilia spills over into the rooms and suites, where bathroom mirrors are framed by driftwood and bedside tables are crafted from porthole glass. Some rooms have private wooden decks or romantic four-poster beds; all have direct ocean views. With the rolling tide just outside, and interiors featuring local wood, lava stone, and a cheerful blue and white color palette, it’s rather like sleeping on a ship. The hotel’s wood-lined lounge bar has cozy, galley-like feel, ideal for warming up after exploring the windswept coastline.
