HEART OF FARGO

LUXURY HERITAGE HOTEL IN THE HEART OF DOWNTOWN FARGO

HOTEL DONALDSON

THE COSMOPOLITAN & URBAN
SPIRIT OF FARGO

The Hotel Donaldson in Fargo’s revitalized downtown offers far more than a place to sleep. Art-filled rooms; beds you’ll linger in; artisan cuisine paired with wine, beer, and spirits; and friendly, experienced staff members create a memorable experience.

After more than 100 years as a fraternal lodge and hotel, the building took on its current life in 2003 after a three-year renovation process. Since then, The Hotel Donaldson has become recognized for its exceptional hospitality and its role as a central location for downtown Fargo’s nightlife, dining, and culture.

DINE & DRINK

BLARNEY STONE

The Blarney Stone is a casual eating and drinking establishment hosting a range of 32 drafts, great selection of Scotch and Irish whiskey, eclectic wines and scratch made Irish entrees as well as American favorites.

Our Blarney Stone 1st Ave space, available for private events, features a beautiful full bar with seating for 78, gorgeous double-sided fireplace with comfortable seating, and open air access to vibrant downtown Fargo with giant folding windows.

STAY

ROOMS WITH
CHARACTER

Along with careful restoration of historic and unique features, our rooms feature the work of over 60 regional artists. Each of our property’s seventeen rooms is designed and curated around the work of a single artist, giving you a unique experience every time you stay.
