El Grifo Hotel occupies a late 18th-century manor house in Mozaga, in the wine country at the centre of the island. For more than two centuries it was the family home behind the El Grifo winery, and the house, built on volcanic ash, is listed as part of Lanzarote’s historic heritage. It has been turned into a boutique stay of just 12 rooms, set in more than 10,000 m² of interior gardens and terraces.
The draw is the setting and the wine. The hotel is tied into the winery’s visits and its wine museum, so a tasting is easy to fit into a stay, and El Grifo Restaurant in Mozaga serves lunch and dinner. Its central position makes touring the island simple, north or south. It suits couples, wine lovers and anyone who wants history and character over resort facilities.
