The word “querido” means cherished—something we hold close as we engage with our hoteliers, travel experts, and, of course, you.

Querido founder, Carlos Quereda, was inspired during his decade-long tenure at the Marbella Club on Spain’s Costa de Sol. Every morning he watched the resort’s co-founder, Count Rudolph von Schönburg, personally greet staff and guests, creating connections that fueled lifelong friendships with the hotel.

It’s this generosity, inclusiveness, and curiosity that we seek to fulfill with Querido—whether you’re a traveller, a hotelier, or one of our Rockstars.

Experience the dedication, knowledge, and connections our global team offers.

Our experienced team is truly inspired by each and every one of our properties. We’re committed to showcasing the best family-owned hotels, and connecting them with discerning travelers all over the world.
