The deals are subject to customary closing conditions and are expected to close in the fourth quarter of this year.

Hersha chief executive officer Jay Shah said: “We’re pleased to have reached two separate agreements that are expected to increase our operational flexibility while furthering our long-term strategic objectives and delivering immediate shareholder value.

“The valuation of these two assets is yet another confirmation of the public-to-private market valuation gap for our portfolio, and we believe pricing on these two assets is more representative of the remaining portfolio than prior dispositions.”

In 2017, Hersha purchased Pan Pacific Hotel in Seattle, Washington, for $79m.
