There are plenty of cosy hotels around the world, but the Eh’haeusl in Amberg, Germany seriously ups the stakes.
Measuring just 8ft wide and with a floorspace of 53 sq m, the quirky property currently holds the Guinness World Record for the world's smallest hotel (a title it has held since 2008).
Sandwiched between two buildings, the building can only accommodate two guests at a time, although it does still offer up plenty of comforts and amenities.
There's the 'Red Salon' where guests can relax, a cosy bedroom with a double bed, a flat screen TV and fireplace, and even a mini spa complete with a whirlpool tub and rainbow hues.
The Eh’haeusl boasts a quirky history. It was built in 1728, when young couples needed proof of land ownership in order to marry.
A savvy businessman decided to build the tiny house between two existing buildings. Couples could buy the house, get married, and then sell it on to the next couple looking to tie the knot. In fact, the hotel's name Eh’haeusl loosely but aptly translates to 'marriage house'.
In 2008, it was renovated and transformed into a hotel, picking up the title of the smallest hotel in the world in the process.
