Guide of rural tourism establishments in Catalonia

Everyone who travels knows the theoretical differences between two, four or five star hotels. This differentiation by categories, which mark the different levels of quality and equipment of the hotels, we will now find in the rural accommodation of Catalonia.

Indeed, the Catalan Tourism Agency has set up a system by which we can distinguish different categories between Rural houses and hotels in Catalonia.

For this, a system of categories, which instead of the well-known stars of the hotels, in this case uses the spikes, to which almost 500 rural establishments of Catalonia have been attached, which is a quarter of those registered.

Thus, in the first place we can distinguish between rural establishments, identified with green spikes, which are farmhouses or hamlets destined exclusively to receive travelers, and peasant houses or agrotourism establishments, with yellow spikes, owned by farmers who use the houses to develop agricultural activities and, in turn, welcome guests.

In both groups of establishments there are five categoriesas they have one to five spikes: Basic, Comfort, Great comfort, Superior and Superior premium.

In the elaboration of this system of categories, together with the Catalan Tourism Agency The two most representative entities of rural tourism in Catalonia have participated, Concatur Y Turalcat.

Cited Catalan Tourism Directorate has published a guide where you find the information on the 498 rural houses and hotels welcomed to the categories by spikes, as well as the distinct characteristics of these.

The Guide of Rural Tourism Establishments of Catalonia You find it in the tourist offices of Catalonia, or you can download in pdf.

And as a curiosity, the symbol to distinguish the categories is the spike of rye.
