Park Hotels & Resorts has closed on the sale of the 508-room Hilton Miami Airport for $118.25 million, or $233,000 per key. The REIT did not announce the buyer but a separate press release from MCR announcing its purchase of the 508-room Hilton Miami Airport Blue Lagoon suggests it acquired the property from Park Hotels. 

The sale price represents a 6.2% cap rate on 2019 net operating income, according to Park Hotels. Proceeds from the sale will be used to pay off the outstanding $50 million revolver balance and for general corporate purposes.

The sale is part of the company's plan to recycle capital out of non-core hotels, says CEO Thomas J. Baltimore, Jr.  "Over the last twelve months, Park has sold eight hotels for over $435 million, with proceeds used to pay down debt and buy back common stock at a significant discount to NAV," he says in prepared remarks.
