Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements Disclosure [Text Block]	1. NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION As of July 31, 2014, InnSuites Hospitality Trust (the “Trust”, “we” or “our”) owns interests in directly and through a partnership interest, five hotels with an aggregate of 843 suites in Arizona, southern California and New Mexico (the “Hotels”). The Hotels operate under the trade name “InnSuites Hotels.” Full service hotels often contain upscale full-service facilities with a large volume of full service accommodations, on-site full service restaurant(s), and a variety of on-site amenities such as swimming pools, a health club, children’s activities, ballrooms and on-site conference facilities. Moderate or limited service hotels are small to medium-sized hotel establishments that offer a limited amount of on-site amenities. Most moderate or limited service establishments may still offer full service accommodations but lack leisure amenities such as an on-site restaurant or a swimming pool. We consider one of our Tucson, Arizona hotels and our hotel located in Albuquerque, New Mexico a moderate or limited service establishment. All of our other properties are full service hotels. The Trust is the sole general partner of RRF Limited Partnership, a Delaware limited partnership (the “Partnership”), and owned a 72.11% and 72.04% interest in the Partnership as of July 31, 2014 and January 31, 2014, respectively. The Trust’s weighted average ownership for the six month period ended July 31, 2014 and 2013 was 72.06% and 72.04%, respectively. As of July 31, 2014, the Partnership owned 100% of one InnSuites® hotel located in Tucson, Arizona, owned a 51.01% interest in another InnSuites® hotel located in Tucson, Arizona and owned a 56.45% interest in an InnSuites® hotel located in Ontario, California. The Trust owns and operates a Yuma, Arizona hotel property directly and owns a direct 50.68% interest in an InnSuites® hotel located in Albuquerque, New Mexico. Under certain management agreements, InnSuites Hotels, our subsidiary, manages the Hotels’ daily operations. The Trust also provides the use of the “InnSuites” trademark to the Hotels through wholly-owned InnSuites Hotels. All such expenses and reimbursements between the Trust, InnSuites Hotels and the Partnership have been eliminated in consolidation. InnDependent Boutique Collection (“IBC Hotels”), a wholly owned subsidiary of InnSuites Hospitality Trust, has a network of approximately 6,300 properties and provides revenue generating reservation services and cost saving solutions to independent boutique hotels. Revenues and expenses of IBC Hotels are not significant for all periods presented and not separately reported. PARTNERSHIP AGREEMENT The Partnership Agreement of the Partnership provides for the issuance of two classes of Limited Partnership units, Class A and Class B. Class A and Class B Partnership units are identical in all respects, except that each Class A Partnership unit is convertible into one newly-issued Share of Beneficial Interest of the Trust at any time at the option of the particular limited partner. The Class B Partnership units may only become convertible, each into one newly-issued Share of Beneficial Interest of the Trust, with the approval of the Board of Trustees, in its sole discretion. On July 31, 2014 and January 31, 2014, 276,131 and 286,034 Class A Partnership units were issued and outstanding, representing 2.09% and 2.17% of the total Partnership units, respectively. Additionally, as of both July 31, 2014 and January 31, 2014, 3,407,938 Class B Partnership units were outstanding to James Wirth, the Trust’s Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, and Mr. Wirth’s affiliates, or 25.80% of the total Partnership units. If all of the Class A and B Partnership units were converted on July 31, 2014, the limited partners in the Partnership would receive 3,684,069 Shares of Beneficial Interest of the Trust. As of July 31, 2014 and January 31, 2014, the Trust owns 9,527,448 and 9,517,545 general partner units in the Partnership, representing 72.11% and 72.04% of the total Partnership units, respectively. LIQUIDITY Our principal source of cash to meet our cash requirements, including distributions to our shareholders, is our share of the Partnership’s cash flow and quarterly distributions from the Albuquerque, New Mexico property and the Ontario, California and Tucson, Arizona properties, and more recently, sales of non-controlling interests in certain of our Hotels. The Partnership’s principal source of cash flows is from Hotel operations for the one hotel property it owns and from its partial ownership of the Tucson, Arizona and Ontario, California properties. Our liquidity, including our ability to make distributions to our shareholders, will depend upon our ability and the Partnership’s ability to generate sufficient cash flow from Hotel operations and to service our debt. Hotel operations are significantly affected by occupancy and room rates at the Hotels. We anticipate occupancy and Average Daily Rate (“ADR”) will be improved in the coming year, capital improvements are expected to be higher during the current fiscal year as compared to prior year fiscal year as we continue to improve our properties in our efforts outperform our competition. As of July 31, 2014, the Trust had $315,000 drawn on our line of credit. Our credit line was renewed on June 23, 2014 for one additional year and matures on June 23, 2015. As of September 2, 2014, the outstanding balance on the line of credit was $575,000. As of July 31, 2014, the Trust had a related party Demand/Revolving Line of Credit/Promissory Note with a $1,315,940 account balance. The Demand/Revolving Line of Credit/Promissory Note has interest at 7.0% per annum and is interest only quarterly. The Demand/Revolving Line of Credit/Promissory Note was amended on July 1, 2014 to increase the maximum borrowing capacity to $1,400,000. As of September 2, 2014, the outstanding balance on the Demand/Revolving Line of Credit/Promissory Note was $917,943. With the expected continued availability of the $600,000 bank line of credit which management renewed on June 23, 2014 for one additional year, and the availability of the $1,400,000 related party Demand/Revolving Line of Credit/Promissory Note, the refinance or extension of one of our mortgage note payables which management expects to occur, and the $447,000 and $451,560 American Express business loans with Tucson Hospitality Properties LLP and Tucson St. Mary’s Suite Hospitality LLC, respectively, management believes that it will have enough cash on hand to meet all of our financial obligations as they become due for at least the next year. In addition, our management is analyzing other strategic options available to us, including the refinancing of another property or raising additional funds through additional non-controlling interest sales, or a potential sale of one of our properties; however, such transactions may not be available or available on terms that are favorable to the Trust. There can be no assurance that we will be successful in raising additional or replacement funds, or that these funds may be obtainable on terms that are favorable to us. If we are unable to raise additional or replacement funds, we may be required to sell certain of our assets to meet our liquidity needs, which may not be on terms that are favorable. BASIS OF PRESENTATION These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information related to the Trust’s organization, significant accounting policies and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) has been condensed or omitted. The accounting policies followed in the preparation of these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are consistent with those followed in the Trust’s annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended January 31, 2014, as filed on Form 10-K. In the opinion of management, these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contain all material adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary to fairly state our financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented and the presentations and disclosures herein are adequate when read in conjunction with the Trust’s Form 10-K for the year ended January 31, 2014. As sole general partner of the Partnership, the Trust exercises unilateral control over the Partnership, and the Trust owns all of the issued and outstanding classes of shares of InnSuites Hotels. Therefore, the financial statements of the Partnership and InnSuites Hotels are consolidated with the Trust, and all significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated. SEASONALITY OF THE HOTEL BUSINESS The Hotels’ operations historically have been somewhat seasonal. The three southern Arizona hotels experience their highest occupancy in the first fiscal quarter and, to a lesser extent, the fourth fiscal quarter. The second fiscal quarter tends to be the lowest occupancy period at those three southern Arizona hotels. This seasonality pattern can be expected to cause fluctuations in the Trust’s quarterly revenues. The two hotels located in California and New Mexico historically experience their most profitable periods during the second and third fiscal quarters (the summer season), providing some balance to the general seasonality of the Trust’s hotel business. The seasonal nature of the Trust’s business increases its vulnerability to risks such as labor force shortages and cash flow issues. Further, if an adverse event such as an actual or threatened terrorist attack, international conflict, data breach, regional economic downturn or poor weather conditions should occur during the first or fourth fiscal quarters, the adverse impact to the Trust’s revenues could likely be greater as a result of its southern Arizona seasonal business. RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING GUIDANCE In June 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-12, “Accounting for Share-Based Payments When the Terms of an Award Provide That a Performance Target Could Be Achieved after the Requisite Service Period” (“ASU 2014-12”). The amendments in ASU 2014-12 require that a performance target that affects vesting and that could be achieved after the requisite service period be treated as a performance condition. A reporting entity should apply existing guidance in Accounting Standards Codification Topic No. 718, “Compensation—Stock Compensation” (“ASC 718”), as it relates to awards with performance conditions that affect vesting to account for such awards. The amendments in ASU 2014-12 are effective for annual periods and interim periods within those annual periods beginning after December 15, 2015. Early adoption is permitted. Entities may apply the amendments in ASU 2014-12 either: (i) prospectively to all awards granted or modified after the effective date; or (ii) retrospectively to all awards with performance targets that are outstanding as of the beginning of the earliest annual period presented in the financial statements and to all new or modified awards thereafter. The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact of the adoption of this guidance on its consolidated financial statements, however does not expect there to be a material impact at this time. In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606)” (“ASU 2014-09”). The core principle of ASU 2014-09 is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. To achieve that core principle, ASU 2014-09 provides for the following steps: (i) identify the contract(s) with a customer; (ii) identify the performance obligations in the contract; (iii) determine the transaction price; (iv) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and (v) recognize revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation. ASU 2014-09 supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in Accounting Standards Codification Topic No. 605, “Revenue Recognition,” most industry-specific guidance throughout the industry topics of the Accounting Standards Codification, and some cost guidance related to construction-type and production-type contracts. ASU 2014-09 is effective for public entities for annual periods and interim periods within those annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016. Early adoption is not permitted. Companies may use either a full retrospective or a modified retrospective approach to adopt ASU 2014-09. The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact of the adoption of this guidance on its consolidated financial statements.
