In a move set to reshape the future of hotel technology, Vertus Group, a division of Jonas Hospitality and Constellation Software Inc., has announced the acquisition of Ariane Systems, a market leader in self-check-in and check-out solutions for the hospitality sector.
With more than 20 years of expertise and over 3,000 installations in 29 countries, Ariane has been at the forefront of revolutionising the guest arrival experience. Now, under the Vertus Group umbrella, the company is poised to expand its reach and continue its innovation journey.
A New Chapter for Ariane
For Laurent Cardot, Founder and CEO of Ariane, the acquisition marks an exciting new chapter. “Ariane is excited to join the Vertus Group family,” he said. “With the group’s support and synergies, we are confident that Ariane will consolidate its leadership position while continuing to innovate and bring premium solutions to the hospitality market.”
As part of Jonas Hospitality, Ariane joins a growing portfolio of specialist technology brands catering to hotels, resorts, and spas. This marks Vertus Group’s second major hospitality technology acquisition of 2025, underscoring its commitment to expanding its presence in the sector.
Accelerating Growth in Hospitality Tech
Jim Fedigan, Group CEO of Vertus, welcomed Ariane’s addition to the group. “Ariane is a unique and exciting addition to our robust hospitality vertical, and we are thrilled to have them join Vertus Group,” he said. “I look forward to seeing them leverage our extensive network of hospitality software professionals to build on their success.”
For Cardot, the future of self-check-in technology has never been brighter. “The self-check-in market is growing rapidly, and we are proud to put all our energy alongside our new family,” he added.
With hotels increasingly turning to automation and guest-centric technology, the acquisition positions both Ariane and Vertus Group at the forefront of an evolving hospitality landscape-one where efficiency, convenience, and innovation go hand in hand.
