Question 1

What is HotelHinge?

Accepted Answer

HotelHinge is an independent U.S. hotel transaction-intelligence database: a property-first census of American hotels with public-record ownership, sales, and financing, each linked to its public source. It is a commercial real estate data company, unrelated to similarly named consumer apps or hardware brands.

Question 2

How many hotels does HotelHinge cover?

Accepted Answer

The census holds 46,101 U.S. hotels across 51 markets, each with its owner, transaction history, REIT or company attribution, and, where applicable, CMBS debt. A live sample of one marquee hotel per state is publicly searchable, and the full census is available on a subscription.

Question 3

Where does HotelHinge's data come from?

Accepted Answer

Every fact is compiled from public records and other lawfully accessible public sources: assessor and recorder data, government filings, official company and brand disclosures, and public press releases. Each published transaction carries a link back to its original public source, and a blank field is marked honestly rather than guessed.

Question 4

Can I look up who owns a specific hotel and what it sold for?

Accepted Answer

Yes. For a covered property you can see who owns it, the sequence of sales and refinancings attached to it, the parties, and the reported prices, each linked to the public record. HotelHinge does not publish ratings, reviews, photos, or proprietary operating metrics such as RevPAR, ADR, occupancy, or cap rates.
