Read MoreHide Full Article

Key Takeaways

  • PK completed the disposition of Hilton San Francisco Union Square and Parc 55 hotels.
  • The move supports PK's 2025 plan to sell $300-$400 million of non-core assets to focus on core operations.
  • PK had no economic interest due to receivership, and the sale removes legacy assets from its statements.

Park Hotels & Resorts Inc. (PK - Free Report) recently announced the completion of the disposition of the Hilton San Francisco Hotels. The hotels include Hilton San Francisco Union Square, comprising 1,921 rooms, and Parc 55 San Francisco, with 1,024 rooms.

The move is in line with the company’s strategic plan to sell off non-core assets worth $300-$400 million for 2025 to focus on its core portfolio operations. The same will lend balance sheet strength and flexibility to undertake future expansionary steps, which will be value accretive in the long run for the company.

The hotels under consideration were placed in a court-ordered receivership in October 2023, which secured a $725 million non-recourse CMBS Loan. The receiver was entitled to full authority and control over the hotels’ operations. As such, Park Hotels had no economic interest in the same. However, with the completion of this sale, Park will now be able to remove legacy assets from its financial statements.

PK’s Strategic Portfolio-Rebalancing Efforts

Park Hotels has been strategically reshaping its portfolio to maximize shareholders’ return. In May 2025, the company closed on the sale of the 316-room Hyatt Centric Fisherman’s Wharf in San Francisco, CA, for $80 million. Since 2017, Park has disposed of 46 assets for more than $3 billion.
