Dakota Debut for Eco-Focused Starwood

FARGO, N.D.

Starwood Hotels & Resorts Worldwide, Inc. launched its eco-wise Element brand in Fargo, N.D.

Located directly across from the new Sanford Fargo Medical Center, Element Fargo boasts an ideal location in the booming Veterans Boulevard Corridor. Owned and managed by StaySharpe Hotels, the new Element Hotel offers smart, sustainable lodging for eco-conscious travelers with 130 light-filled rooms and an atmosphere designed to fuel a life in balance and on the move.

Element Fargo is situated across from the new $494 million Sanford Fargo Medical Center and is just ten minutes from one of Microsoft Corporation's largest campuses in North America.

The newly constructed hotel is also close to historic downtown Fargo, West Acres Mall and the Fargodome – home of the North Dakota State University Bison. Located in the southeast corner of North Dakota, Fargo is part of the Fargo/Moorhead/West Fargo metropolitan area, which is experiencing rapid growth driven by its energy, technology and manufacturing sectors.

Element Hotels feature natural light, modern design, healthy options and eco-minded efforts. Guests enjoy a healthy Rise breakfast or wind down with the Relax evening wine reception – both complimentary.

Studios and one-bedroom suites at Element Fargo feature a fluid design of modular furniture, flat-screen LED televisions ranging from 40" to 65", large desks with open shelving and custom-designed closets. Rooms will also include fully equipped kitchens and the signature Heavenly Bed, and spa-inspired bathrooms will feature an invigorating rain shower and dual-flush toilet. Other pluses include complimentary bikes to borrow, a 24-hour fitness center and an indoor saline swimming pool and sauna.

The hotel will offer fast and free wired and wireless high-speed internet and a 453 square-foot meeting room with modular furnishings, a flexible layout and top-tier technology.

Element is the first major hotel brand to mandate that all properties pursue the U.S. Green Building Council's Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) certification for high-performance buildings.
