Business Combination and Asset Acquisition [Abstract]
Acquisitions	ACQUISITIONIn the 2022 fourth quarter, we announced that we reached an agreement with Hoteles City Express, S.A.B. de C.V. to acquire the City Express brand portfolio for $100 million. As of October 19, 2022, the portfolio included 152 mid-scale hotels (17,356 rooms) located in Mexico, Costa Rica, Colombia, and Chile. Upon closing of the transaction, which is subject to regulatory approval and other customary closing conditions, City Express will become our 31st brand and the City Express hotels will become part of our franchise system. We expect the transaction could close between the end of 2022 and the first half of 2023.

The entire disclosure for a business combination (or series of individually immaterial business combinations) completed during the period, including background, timing, and recognized assets and liabilities. The disclosure may include leverage buyout transactions (as applicable).
