Mary Doyle has exited Magrino Public Relations for the director of PR and communications position at Chicago-based Aparium Hotel Group.
She heads strategic PR initiatives for the collection of 11 distinctively styled hotels, and 20 restaurants and bars.
Aparium is dedicated to the idea of “translocal hospitality,” which means experiences should be fueled by the poetics of their surroundings, according to Doyle.
Its network includes The Pontchartrain Hotel (New Orleans), Detroit Foundation Hotel, Clayton Hotel & Members Club (Denver), Hewing Hotel (Minneapolis), and Haya Hotel (Tampa).
Four new properties will open this year.
Prior to joining Magrino, Doyle was director of marketing & PR at Heisler Hospitality, and account supervisor at Zapwater Communications.
