“We are bullish on our prospects heading into 2015 with the completion of our portfolio repositioning program, which encompassed the completion of our comprehensive renovations at the W Chicago - Lakeshore and the Hyatt Herald Square New York, and soon to be completed renovation and re-branding of the Le Meridien New Orleans.”

HOTEL OPERATING RESULTS

As of September 30, 2014, the Trust owned 19 hotels. Management assesses the operating performance of its hotels irrespective of the hotel owner during the periods compared using the following key operating metrics: occupancy, ADR, RevPAR, Adjusted Hotel EBITDA, and Adjusted Hotel EBITDA Margin. The Trust uses the term "pro forma" to refer to metrics that include, or comparisons of metrics that are based on, the operating results of hotels under previous ownership for either a portion of or the entire period. Since five of the 19 hotels owned as of September 30, 2014 were acquired at various times during 2013, the key operating metrics reflect the pro forma operating results of five of those hotels for the nine months ended September 30, 2013.

In addition to assessing the operating performance of its 19-hotel portfolio for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014, management also assesses the operating performance of a 16-hotel portfolio, which excludes the W Chicago - Lakeshore, the Hotel New Orleans Downtown (formerly the W New Orleans), and the Hyatt Herald Square New York (formerly the Holiday Inn New York City Midtown - 31st Street), as these hotels have undergone or are undergoing comprehensive renovations during 2014. Included in the following table are comparisons of the key operating metrics for the 16-hotel portfolio and the 19-hotel portfolio for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013 (in thousands, except for ADR and RevPAR):

Hotel EBITDA, Adjusted Hotel EBITDA, Adjusted Hotel EBITDA Margin, Corporate EBITDA, Adjusted Corporate EBITDA, FFO, FFO available to common shareholders and AFFO available to common shareholders are non-GAAP financial measures within the meaning of the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission. See the discussion included in this press release for information regarding these non-GAAP financial measures.

DISPOSITION

On September 30, 2014, the Trust sold the 153-room Courtyard Anaheim at Disneyland Resort located in Anaheim, California for $32.5 million, including sold working capital, which resulted in a gain on sale of $7.0 million. The Courtyard Anaheim at Disneyland Resort was one of the Trust's earliest investments, acquired in July 2010 for $25.0 million. The $32.5 million sale price represented a 7.1% trailing twelve month NOI cap rate and produced a 13.3% unleveraged internal rate of return for the Trust over its ownership period. In conjunction with the sale of the Courtyard Anaheim at Disneyland Resort, the Trust executed a 1031 exchange with the acquisition of the JW Marriott San Francisco Union Square on October 1, 2014.

ACQUISITION

On October 1, 2014, the Trust acquired the 337-room JW Marriott San Francisco Union Square located in San Francisco, California for $154.2 million, including an acquired FF&E reserve and working capital. The Trust assumed the existing management agreement with Marriott International, Inc., as well as the existing ground lease covering the property, which expires in January 2083.

MAJOR REPOSITIONINGS

The comprehensive renovation at the 520-room W Chicago – Lakeshore, which commenced in the third quarter of 2013, was completed in the second quarter of 2014 with a total expected cost of approximately $38.0 million.

The comprehensive renovation at the former 410-room W New Orleans to reposition the hotel commenced in the second quarter of 2014. In July 2014, the Trust and its hotel manager, Starwood Hotels & Resorts Worldwide, Inc., agreed to remove the W brand from the hotel for the duration of the renovation and rename it the Hotel New Orleans Downtown. The Trust continues to expect the renovation will cost approximately $29.0 million and be completed in the fourth quarter of 2014, at which time the hotel will be re-branded as the Le Meridien New Orleans.

The comprehensive renovation at the former 122-room Holiday Inn New York City Midtown – 31st Street to reposition the hotel as the Hyatt Herald Square New York, which commenced in the third quarter of 2014, was completed early in the fourth quarter of 2014 with a total expected cost of approximately $6.5 million.

FINANCING ACTIVITY

On July 3, 2014, the Trust completed the refinancing of its $60.0 million term loan secured by the Hyatt Herald Square New York (formerly the Holiday Inn New York City Midtown – 31st Street) and the Hyatt Place New York Midtown South. The term loan was refinanced with a new 10-year, $90.0 million, fixed-rate mortgage loan secured by the two hotels mentioned previously. The loan carries a fixed interest rate of 4.30% per annum and requires interest-only payments for the first two years and principal and interest payments thereafter based on a 30-year principal amortization.

CAPITAL MARKETS ACTIVITY

On September 9, 2014, the Trust completed an underwritten public offering of 4,830,000 common shares, including 630,000 shares sold pursuant to the underwriters' exercise of their option to purchase additional shares. The Trust generated net proceeds of $143.9 million after deducting offering costs.

The Trust has not sold any common shares under its continuous at-the-market (ATM) program during 2014 and through the date of this release.

DIVIDENDS

On July 15, 2014, the Trust paid dividends in the amounts of $0.30 per share to its common shareholders and $0.484375 per share to its preferred shareholders, both of record as of June 30, 2014. On September 16, 2014, the Trust declared dividends in the amounts of $0.30 per share payable to its common shareholders and $0.484375 per share payable to its preferred shareholders, both of record as of September 30, 2014. Both dividends were paid on October 15, 2014.

2014 OUTLOOK

The Trust is updating its 2014 outlook to incorporate its third quarter results, recent operating trends and fundamentals, the sale of the Courtyard Anaheim at Disneyland Resort, the acquisition of the JW Marriott San Francisco Union Square, and the recent common share offering. The updated outlook assumes no additional acquisitions, dispositions, or financing transactions (in millions, except RevPAR and per share amounts):

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

The Trust reports the following eight non-GAAP financial measures that it believes are useful to investors as key measures of its operating performance: (1) Hotel EBITDA, (2) Adjusted Hotel EBITDA, (3) Adjusted Hotel EBITDA Margin, (4) Corporate EBITDA, (5) Adjusted Corporate EBITDA, (6) FFO, (7) FFO available to common shareholders and (8) AFFO available to common shareholders. Reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most comparable GAAP measure are included in the accompanying financial tables.

Hotel EBITDA – Hotel EBITDA is defined as total revenues less total hotel operating expenses. The Trust believes that Hotel EBITDA provides investors a useful financial measure to evaluate the Trust's hotel operating performance.

Adjusted Hotel EBITDA – The Trust further adjusts Hotel EBITDA for certain additional recurring and non-recurring items. Specifically, the Trust adjusts for non-cash amortization of intangible assets and liabilities, including ground lease assets and unfavorable contract liabilities, deferred franchise costs, and deferred key money, all of which are recurring items. The Trust believes that Adjusted Hotel EBITDA provides investors with another useful financial measure to evaluate the Trust's hotel operating performance.

Adjusted Hotel EBITDA Margin – Adjusted Hotel EBITDA Margin is defined as Adjusted Hotel EBITDA as a percentage of total revenues. The Trust believes that Adjusted Hotel EBITDA Margin provides investors another useful financial measure to evaluate the Trust's hotel operating performance.

Corporate EBITDA – Corporate EBITDA is defined as net income before interest, income taxes, and depreciation and amortization. The Trust believes that Corporate EBITDA provides investors a useful financial measure to evaluate the Trust's operating performance, excluding the impact of the Trust's capital structure (primarily interest expense) and the Trust's asset base (primarily depreciation and amortization).

Adjusted Corporate EBITDA – The Trust further adjusts Corporate EBITDA for certain additional recurring and non-recurring items. Specifically, the Trust adjusts for hotel acquisition costs and non-cash amortization of intangible assets and liabilities, including air rights contracts, ground lease assets and unfavorable contract liabilities, deferred franchise costs, and deferred key money, all of which are recurring items, and gains (losses) from sales of real estate, which is a non-recurring item. The Trust believes that Adjusted Corporate EBITDA provides investors with another financial measure of its operating performance that provides for greater comparability of its core operating results between periods.

FFO – The Trust calculates FFO in accordance with standards established by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (NAREIT), which defines FFO as net income (calculated in accordance with GAAP), excluding depreciation and amortization, impairment charges of depreciable real estate, gains (losses) from sales of real estate, the cumulative effect of changes in accounting principles, and adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. Historical cost accounting for real estate assets implicitly assumes that the value of real estate assets diminishes predictably over time. Since real estate values instead have historically risen or fallen with market conditions, most industry investors consider presentations of operating results for real estate companies that use historical cost accounting to be insufficient by themselves. By excluding the effect of depreciation and amortization and gains (losses) from sales of real estate, both of which are based on historical cost accounting and which may be of lesser significance in evaluating current performance, the Trust believes that FFO provides investors a useful financial measure to evaluate the Trust's operating performance.

FFO available to common shareholders – The Trust reduces FFO for preferred share dividends and dividends declared on and earnings allocated to unvested time-based awards (consistent with adjustments required by GAAP in reporting net income available to common shareholders and related per share amounts). FFO available to common shareholders provides investors another financial measure to evaluate the Trust's operating performance after taking into account the interests of holders of the Trust's preferred shares and unvested time-based awards.

AFFO available to common shareholders – The Trust further adjusts FFO available to common shareholders for certain additional recurring and non-recurring items that are not in NAREIT's definition of FFO. Specifically, the Trust adjusts for hotel acquisition costs and non-cash amortization of intangible assets and liabilities, including air rights contracts, ground lease assets and unfavorable contract liabilities, deferred franchise costs, and deferred key money, all of which are recurring items. The Trust believes that AFFO available to common shareholders provides investors with another financial measure of its operating performance that provides for greater comparability of its core operating results between periods.
