WASHINGTON, DC–Xenia Hotels & Resorts has acquired The Ritz-Carlton Pentagon City for $105 million, or approximately $287,670 per key. The REIT funded the acquisition with cash that was available on its balance sheet and its senior unsecured credit facility.
The purchase price represents an estimated 11.3x multiple on 2017 forecasted Hotel EBITDA and the company expects that the hotel will generate approximately $2 million of Hotel EBITDA for the remainder of 2017.
The 18-story luxury hotel has 365 rooms and 19,000 square feet of meeting space, and has recently completed an $11 million renovation of its guestrooms and club lounge.
For the past year or so Xenia has been shedding its assets in the Washington DC-Baltimore area. It sold the 220-room DoubleTree by Hilton for $65 million last year in part because it wanted to reduce its exposure in the market. Then it sold the Embassy Suites Hunt Valley, located in a Baltimore submarket, for $20 million.
Earlier this year it sold a 812-key, five-asset hotel portfolio for $163 million, or $201,000 per key. Two of the hotels were located in Baltimore; the other three were in Ft. Worth, Kansas City and Pittsburgh.
As for the DC area, there has been a small flurry of trades in the hotel space lately: Noble Investment Group acquired the Staybridge Suites Tysons-McLean, a newly renovated, extended-stay hotel located in downtown McLean and both the Hamilton Hotel and the Madison Hotel in the District are trading to buyers in separate deals.
