    WHO WE ARE

    Hotels done differently. It's not just a slogan it is who we are in everything we do. We believe in the power of People, Place and Character; ensuring our properties are a place where individuals are valued and celebrated as a tribute to the neighborhoods and the people of the communities in which we operate; elevating our associates' pride in who they are, where they live and who we serve.

    Soulful, sophisticated and avant-garde, the Jasper Hotel will be Fargo's social hub for cultured locals and modern travelers looking to connect, discover and indulge, the intersection of luxury and community. Redefining hotel luxury in North Dakota, this new-build has 3900squarefeet of flexible space, 125rooms and an exciting Food + Beverage restaurant programming.

    The Hotel is managed by Aparium Hotel Group which was founded in 2011 by Chicago hospitality executive and entrepreneur Mario Tricoci and luxury hotel veteran Kevin Robinson. The duo saw a clear need for a company that could bring c-suite service and accommodations to underserved, yet distinct and important cities, while maintaining and celebrating the unadulterated character of each. Driven by the belief that all hospitality experiences should be fueled by the poetics of their surroundings, Aparium was born with an intense focus on unearthing the amazing moments unique to every city.
