In 2011, had its best year ever, reaching a record high of $3.5 billion in dollar volume, reports Jones Lang LaSalle Hotels. The number accounts for a total of 18 transactions and represents a 150-percent increase over the $1.4 billion in hotel transactions recorded in 2010. The number also shattered JLL's prediction of $2.4 billion worth of hotel deals for 2011.
"New York transaction activity in 2011 was driven by the perfect combination of strong operating fundamentals, quality product being brought to market and unprecedented real estate investment trust appetite," said Arthur Adler, managing director and Americas CEO of Jones Lang LaSalle Hotels.
Real Deal reports that "New York was the most liquid hotel market in the world, and totaled 20 percent of the country’s entire hotel sales volume." JLL expects New York to retain its crown in 2012, though REITs may still be on the sidelines if their stock prices don't jump.
Institutional investors and private equity firms will contribute to the 12 hotels trades JLL expects for 2012, which should total between $2.2 billion and $2.6 billion—approximately 15 percent of America’s total—the firm forecasts.
One of the larger transactions of 2011 was HEI Hotels & Resorts' sale of the Algonquin Hotel, which is part of Marriott's Autograph Collection.
2012 is off to a fast start. LaSalle Hotel Properties kicked off the new year by purchasing the Park Central Hotel for $396.2 million.
