A hands-on sample of the real product: one marquee hotel per state. Search, filter, and open any row for its full record. The live database holds tens of thousands more.
Coverage
— hotels across 50 states and DC
What is in the database, and where. Each property carries its owners, characteristics, and comparable sales; hover any state to see how many hotels we track there today.
Some states do not disclose sale prices publicly; where the public record is thin, we show what exists and mark the rest with a dash, never a guess. Every transaction is tied to its public-record source. No ratings, reviews, or photos.
The schema
What one hotel record holds
Six layers on the same property key, so an owner, a sale and a loan are the same hotel rather than three lookups you reconcile yourself. The top row is included with a free account. The bottom row is what a property unlock opens.
Layer 1
The property
Free account- Name, address and phone
- City, county, state and submarket
- Brand, flag and chain scale
- Rooms, floors and year built
- Parcel ID and structure size
Layer 2
Transactions & assessment
Free account- Sale date and reported price
- Refinancings and conversions
- County assessed value
- Comparable sales on the deed
- A source link on every event
Layer 3
News & press
Free account- Daily trade-press headlines
- Attached to the hotel, not a feed
- Openings, sales and closures
- Publisher and date on every item
- A link to the original article
Layer 4
Ownership
Unlock or Capital Markets- The owner entity on the deed
- Buyer and seller on each sale
- The operator on file
- Public REIT attribution
- Every owner's other hotels
Layer 5
Lenders
Unlock or Capital Markets- The lender on a recorded mortgage
- The broker, where one is named
- Originator of a securitized loan
- Each party's role on the deal
- Every lender's other hotels
Layer 6
Debt
Unlock or Capital Markets- The securitized loan on the hotel
- Whole-loan balance across notes
- Rate, maturity, DSCR and LTV
- Monthly servicer financials
- Maturity and watchlist signals
A field that is not known is shown as a blank, never as an estimate. That is the whole reason the coverage figures above are worth quoting. A free account carries ten property unlocks a month; one unlock opens the whole bottom row on that hotel for the rest of the month, and Capital Markets removes the limit.
Provenance
Where every fact comes from
Public records and other lawfully accessible public sources, cited on the record itself so you can check any figure before you use it.
County assessors and recorders
Parcel, assessment and deed data pulled from the jurisdictions that publish it, which is what makes a sale price verifiable rather than reported.
Securities and securitization filings
SEC filings, including the loan-level ABS-EE reporting and the CREFC annex behind the debt layer, read as filed and attributed to the filing.
Official company and brand disclosure
Owner, operator and brand statements taken from the companies' own published material.
Public announcements
Press releases and public trade coverage, admitted only when they name the property and carry a checkable source.
Nothing is taken from booking or review sites, and nothing is modelled to fill a hole. Read the full method and the compliance position on the data and methodology page.

Questions
Common questions about the database
What does a free account get me?
The full census: every covered hotel with its characteristics, sale history, comparable sales, county assessed value and news, plus ten property unlocks a month. An unlock opens that hotel's owner, deal parties and loan terms for the rest of the month. No card, and nothing expires.
How current is it?
Transactions are admitted as the public record and official disclosure publish them, and the coverage figures on this page are read from the current published census rather than from a number typed into the page.
What happens when a fact is unknown?
The field is left blank. Nothing is modelled or imputed to make coverage look better than it is, which is why a blank in this database is information rather than a gap.
Does it include operating performance?
No. HotelHinge does not publish its own RevPAR, ADR, occupancy or cap-rate figures, and it carries no ratings, reviews or photographs. Where a securitized loan's own filed financials are reported, they appear attributed to that filing.
Is there an API or bulk delivery?
API and bulk access are Enterprise features, licensed with redistribution limits. Contact us with the coverage and fields you need.
Who is it for?
Brokers, appraisers, lenders, owner-operators and investment teams who need to know who owns a hotel, what it traded for, and what is financed against it, without a terminal contract.
