Park Hotels Should See a Few More Quarters of High NOI Growth as Occupancy and Margins Recover

Park Hotels & Resorts is the second largest U.S. lodging REIT, focusing on the upper-upscale hotel segment. The company was spun out of narrow-moat Hilton Worldwide Holdings at the start of 2017. Since the spinoff, the company has sold all the international hotels and 23 lower-quality U.S. hotels to focus on high-quality assets in domestic, gateway markets. Park completed the acquisition of Chesapeake Lodging Trust in September 2019, a complimentary portfolio of 18 high-quality, upper upscale hotels that should help to diversify Park's hotel brands to include Marriott, Hyatt, and IHG hotels.
