Aspen One Appoints Jeff Toscano as CEO of Aspen Hospitality
Aspen One, the parent company of Aspen Hospitality, Aspen Skiing Company, and Aspen Ventures is pleased to announce the appointment of Jeff Toscano as Chief Executive Officer of Aspen Hospitality.

In that role Jeff managed the strategy and operations for 31 hotels with 8,000+ rooms, generating ~$1 billion in annual revenue. Jeff has also held executive roles at Hyatt Hotels Corporation, Davidson Hotels & Resorts, Two Roads Hospitality, Denihan Hospitality Group, and Starwood Hotels & Resorts. He has led a number of high-profile projects such as The Surrey NYC, The Beekman NYC, Ventana Big Sur, and Carmel Valley Ranch. Jeff holds a General Managers Program certification from Cornell University and a Bachelor of Science in Hospitality & Institutional Management from Purdue University.
