Dakota Hospitality Company was a hotel company based in Fargo, North Dakota. It owned and operated hotels under the Holiday Inn, Holiday Inn Express, and Hilton Garden Inn brands in the Central United States.

The company was renamed First Call Hospitality and continues to operate the portfolio of hotels it did under Dakota Hospitality Company.
Famous quotes containing the words hospitality and/or company:
“But hospitality must be for service, and not for show, or it pulls down the host. The brave soul rates itself too high to value itself by the splendor of its table and draperies. It gives what it hath, and all it hath, but its own majesty can lend a better grace to bannocks and fair water than belong to city feasts.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“I hate the prostitution of the name of friendship to signify modish and worldly alliances. I much prefer the company of ploughboys and tin-peddlers, to the silken and perfumed amity which celebrates its days of encounter by a frivolous display, by rides in a curricle, and dinners at the best taverns.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
