What It Is

Rusticae is a curated travel platform and boutique hotel collection based in Madrid, Spain. It selects and lists independent boutique hotels, rural houses, glamping properties, and design apartments that meet its quality and character criteria — positioning itself as a discovery and booking destination for travellers seeking authentic, non-chain accommodations.

Who It Serves

Rusticae serves leisure travellers, particularly those looking for distinctive, experience-led stays in Spain and Portugal, with some international reach including a German-market site. It also serves corporate partners and offers gift card products for hotel stays, making it a lifestyle brand as much as a booking channel.

How Properties Connect

Properties apply to join Rusticae's curated collection through a membership programme. Once accepted, hotels are listed on rusticae.com with full booking functionality provided by Rusticae's booking engine. This curated model means the channel drives qualified, high-intent guests to member properties, and the platform handles direct online reservations on the property's behalf — functioning as both an endorsement and a distribution channel for boutique and rural hospitality operators.
