Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract]
Income Taxes	Income Taxes We have elected to be taxed as a real estate investment trust, or REIT, under the United States Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, or the IRC, and, as such, are generally not subject to federal and most state income taxation on our operating income provided we distribute our taxable income to our shareholders and meet certain organization and operating requirements. We are subject to income tax in Canada, Puerto Rico and certain states despite our qualification for taxation as a REIT. Further, we lease our managed hotels to our wholly owned TRSs that, unlike most of our subsidiaries, file a separate consolidated tax return and are subject to federal, state and foreign income taxes. Our consolidated income tax provision includes the income tax provision related to the operations of our TRSs and certain state and foreign income taxes incurred by us despite our qualification for taxation as a REIT. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, we recognized income tax expense of $786 and $1,142, respectively, which includes $246 and $361, respectively, of foreign taxes, $25 and $36, respectively, of federal taxes and $515 and $745, respectively, of state taxes. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, we recognized income tax expense of $2,160 and $2,535, respectively, which includes $1,570 and $1,602, respectively, of foreign taxes, $39 and $92, respectively, of federal taxes and $551 and $841, respectively, of state taxes.
