Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
Company Information and Significant Accounting Policies | Company Information and Significant Accounting Policies The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of Choice Hotels International, Inc. and subsidiaries (together the "Company") have been prepared by the Company pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). These unaudited consolidated financial statements include all adjustments that are necessary, in the opinion of management, to fairly present our financial position and results of operations. Except as otherwise disclosed, all adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP") have been omitted. The Company believes the disclosures made are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. The consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2014 and notes thereto included in the Company’s Form 10-K, filed with the SEC on March 2, 2015 (the "10-K"). Interim results are not necessarily indicative of the entire year results. All inter-company transactions and balances between Choice Hotels International, Inc. and its subsidiaries have been eliminated in consolidation. The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Discontinued Operations In the first quarter of 2014, the Company's management approved a plan to dispose of the three Company owned Mainstay Suites hotels. As a result, the Company has reported the operations related to these three hotels as discontinued operations in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. For additional information regarding discontinued operations, see Note 18, Discontinued Operations. Cash and Cash Equivalents The Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with a maturity of three months or less at the date of purchase to be cash equivalents. As of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 , $7.3 million and $5.4 million , respectively, of book overdrafts representing outstanding checks in excess of funds on deposit are included in accounts payable in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. The Company maintains cash balances in domestic banks, which at times, may exceed the limits of amounts insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. In addition, as of June 30, 2015 , the Company maintains cash balances of $205 million in international banks and money market funds which do not provide deposit insurance. Recently Adopted Accounting Guidance In April 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-08, Presentation of Financial Statements and Property, Plant, and Equipment: Reporting Discontinued Operations and Disclosures of Disposals of Components of an Entity ("ASU No. 2014-08"). ASU No. 2014-08 changes the definition of a discontinued operation to include only those disposals of components of an entity that represent a strategic shift that has (or will have) a major effect on an entity's operations and financial results. ASU No. 2014-08 is effective for all disposals (or classifications as held for sale) of components of an entity that occur within annual periods beginning on or after December 15, 2014, and interim periods within those years. The Company adopted this ASU on January 1, 2015 and it did not have a material impact on its financial statements. Future Adoption of Recently Announced Accounting Guidance In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue From Contracts with Customers ("ASU 2014-09"), which impacts virtually all aspects of an entity's revenue recognition. ASU No. 2014-09 supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in Topic 605, Revenue Recognition, as well as most industry-specific guidance, and significantly enhances comparability of revenue recognition practices across entities and industries by providing a principles-based, comprehensive framework for addressing revenue recognition issues. In order for a provider of promised goods or services to recognize as revenue the consideration that it expects to receive in exchange for the promised goods or services, the provider should apply the following five steps: (1) identify the contract with a customer(s); (2) identify the performance obligations in the contract; (3) determine the transaction price; (4) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and (5) recognize revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation. ASU No. 2014-09 also specifies the accounting for some costs to obtain or fulfill a contract with a customer and provides enhanced disclosure requirements. On July 9, 2015 the FASB voted to defer ASU No. 2014-09 for one year, and with that deferral, the standard will be effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within that reporting period, which will be our 2018 first quarter. However, early adoption is permitted to the original effective date of January 1, 2017. We are permitted to use either the retrospective or modified retrospective method when adopting ASU No. 2014-09. We are still assessing the potential impact that ASU No. 2014-09 will have on our financial statements and disclosures. In January 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-01, Income Statement - Extraordinary and Unusual Items (Subtopic 225-20) ("ASU No. 2015-01"). ASU No. 2015-01 was issued changing the requirements for reporting extraordinary and unusual items in the income statement. The update eliminates the concept of extraordinary items. The presentation and disclosure guidance for items that are unusual in nature or occur infrequently will be retained and will be expanded to include items that are both unusual in nature and infrequently occurring. ASU No. 2015-01 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2015, including interim periods within that reporting period. Early adoption is permitted provided that the guidance is applied from the beginning of the fiscal year of adoption. The adoption of this newly issued guidance is not expected to have an impact to our consolidated financial statements. In February 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-02, Consolidation (Topic 810) ("ASU No. 2015-02"). ASU No. 2015-02 changes the analysis that a reporting entity must perform to determine whether it should consolidate certain types of legal entities. This guidance must be applied using one of two retrospective application methods and will be effective for fiscal years, and for interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2015. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact, if any, the adoption of this newly issued guidance will have on its consolidated financial statements. In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-03, Interest - Imputation of Interest (Subtopic 835-30) ("ASU No. 2015-03"). ASU No. 2015-03 changes the presentation of debt issuance costs in the financial statements to present such costs as a direct deduction from the related debt liability rather than as an asset. Amortization of debt issuance costs will continue to be reported as interest expense. This standard is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2015, including interim periods within that reporting period. Early adoption is permitted and the standard is to be applied on retrospective basis. The Company currently does not believe that ASU No. 2015-03 will have a material impact on its consolidated financial position, results of operations, or cash flows. In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-05, Intangibles-Goodwill - Internal Use Software (Subtopic 350-40) ("ASU No. 2015-05"). ASU No. 2015-05 provides guidance to customers about whether a cloud computing arrangement includes a software license or should be accounted for as a service contract. The standard is effective for annual reporting periods, including interim periods within those annual periods beginning after December 15, 2015. Early adoption is permitted and an entity can elect to adopt the amendment either (1) prospectively to all arrangements entered into or materially modified after the effective date or (2) retrospectively. The adoption of this newly issued guidance is not expected to have a material impact to our consolidated financial statements. |

Accounts and Notes Receivable, Net [Abstract] | |
Notes Receivable and Allowance for Losses | Notes Receivable and Allowance for Losses The Company segregates its notes receivable for the purposes of evaluating allowances for credit losses between two categories: Mezzanine and Other Notes Receivable and Forgivable Notes Receivable . The Company utilizes the level of security it has in the various notes receivable as its primary credit quality indicator (i.e. senior, subordinated or unsecured) when determining the appropriate allowances for uncollectible loans within these categories. The Company considers loans to be past due and in default when payments are not made when due. Although the Company considers loans to be in default if payments are not received on the due date, the Company does not suspend the accrual of interest until those payments are more than 30 days past due. The Company applies payments received for loans on non-accrual status first to interest and then principal. The Company does not resume interest accrual until all delinquent payments are received. For impaired loans, the Company recognizes interest income on a cash basis. The following table shows the composition of our notes receivable balances: June 30, 2015 December 31, 2014 (in thousands) (in thousands) Credit Quality Indicator Forgivable Mezzanine Total Forgivable Mezzanine Total Senior $ — $ 11,650 $ 11,650 $ — $ 10,152 $ 10,152 Subordinated — 466 466 — 3,863 3,863 Unsecured 44,360 3,795 48,155 32,379 3,995 36,374 Total notes receivable 44,360 15,911 60,271 32,379 18,010 50,389 Allowance for losses on non-impaired loans 4,688 1,480 6,168 3,661 1,540 5,201 Allowance for losses on receivables specifically evaluated for impairment — 786 786 — 786 786 Total loan reserves 4,688 2,266 6,954 3,661 2,326 5,987 Net carrying value $ 39,672 $ 13,645 $ 53,317 $ 28,718 $ 15,684 $ 44,402 Current portion, net $ 164 $ 1,925 $ 2,089 $ 124 $ 3,837 $ 3,961 Long-term portion, net 39,508 11,720 51,228 28,594 11,847 40,441 Total $ 39,672 $ 13,645 $ 53,317 $ 28,718 $ 15,684 $ 44,402 The Company classifies notes receivable due within one year as other current assets in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets.

The Company recorded an allowance for credit losses on these forgivable notes receivable of $4.7 million and $3.7 million at June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 , respectively. Amortization expense included in the accompanying consolidated statements of income related to the notes for the three months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 was $2.1 million and $1.2 million , respectively. Amortization expense for the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 was $3.9 million and $2.4 million , respectively.

The Company recorded allowance for credit losses on these impaired loans at both June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 totaling $0.8 million . For the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 , the average mezzanine and other notes receivable on non-accrual status was approximately $0.8 million and $12.2 million , respectively. The Company recognized approximately $0 and $33 thousand of interest income on impaired loans during the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 , respectively, on the cash basis.

Advances, Marketing and Reservation Activities [Abstract] | |
Marketing and Reservation Activities | Marketing and Reservation Activities The Company’s franchise agreements require the payment of franchise fees, which include marketing and reservation system fees. The Company is obligated to use the marketing and reservation system revenues it collects from the current franchisees comprising its various hotel brands to provide marketing and reservation services appropriate to support the operation of the overall system. In discharging its obligation to provide sufficient and appropriate marketing and reservation services, the Company has the right to expend funds in an amount reasonably necessary to ensure the provision of such services, whether or not such amount is currently available to the Company for reimbursement. The franchise agreements provide the Company the right to advance monies to the franchise system when the needs of the system surpass the balances currently available. As a result, expenditures by the Company in support of marketing and reservation services in excess of available revenues are deferred and recorded as an asset in the Company’s financial statements. Conversely, cumulative marketing and reservation system revenues not expended in the current period are deferred and recorded as a liability in the financial statements and are carried over to the next fiscal year and expended in accordance with the franchise agreements or utilized to reimburse the Company for prior year advances. Under the terms of these agreements, the Company has the contractually enforceable right to assess and collect from its current franchisees, fees sufficient to pay for the marketing and reservation services the Company has procured for the benefit of the franchise system, including fees to reimburse the Company for past services rendered. The Company has the contractual authority to require that the franchisees in the system at any given point repay any deficits related to marketing and reservation activities. The Company’s current franchisees are contractually obligated to pay any assessment the Company imposes on its franchisees to obtain reimbursement of such deficit regardless of whether those constituents continue to generate gross room revenue and whether or not they joined the system following the deficit's occurrence. At June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 , cumulative marketing and reservation system fees billed exceeded expenses by $35.7 million and $44.3 million , respectively, with the excess reflected as an other long-term liability in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. Depreciation and amortization expense attributable to marketing and reservation activities for the three and six and months ended June 30, 2015 were $5.8 million and $11.2 million , respectively. Depreciation and amortization expense attributable to marketing and reservation activities for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 were $4.3 million and $8.0 million , respectively. Interest expense attributable to marketing and reservation activities for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 was $7 thousand and $16 thousand , respectively. Interest expense attributable to marketing and reservation activities for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 was $0.3 million and $1.0 million , respectively. |

These investments relate to the Company's program to offer equity support to qualified franchisees to develop and operate Cambria hotel & suites hotels in strategic markets. Based on an analysis of who has the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact these entities performance and who has an obligation to absorb losses of these entities or a right to receive benefits from these entities that could potentially be significant to the entity, the Company determined that it is not the primary beneficiary of any of its VIEs. The Company based its qualitative analysis on its review of the design of the entity, its organizational structure including decision-making ability and the relevant development, operating management and financial agreements. Although the Company is not the primary beneficiary of these VIEs, it does exercise significant influence through its equity ownership and as a result the Company's investment in these entities is accounted for under the equity method. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 , the Company recognized losses totaling $0.6 million and $1.8 million , respectively, from these investments. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 , the Company recognized losses totaling $22 thousand and $66 thousand , respectively, from these investments.The Company's maximum exposure to losses related to its investments in VIEs is limited to its equity investments as well as certain guarantees described in Note 16 "Commitments and Contingencies" of these financial statements. |

The 2012 Senior Notes will mature on July 1, 2022 , with interest to be paid semi-annually on January 1 st and July 1 st . The Company used the net proceeds of this offering, after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and other offering expenses, together borrowings under the Company's senior credit facility, to pay a special cash dividend in 2012 totaling approximately $600.7 million . The Company's 2012 Senior Notes are guaranteed jointly, severally, fully and unconditionally, subject to certain customary limitations by certain of the Company’s domestic subsidiaries. Senior Unsecured Notes Due 2020 On August 25, 2010 , the Company issued unsecured senior notes in the principal amount of $250 million (the "2010 Senior Notes") at a discount of $0.6 million , bearing a coupon of 5.70% with an effective rate of 6.19% . The 2010 Senior Notes will mature on August 28, 2020 , with interest to be paid semi-annually on February 28 th and August 28 th . The Company used the net proceeds from the offering, after deducting underwriting discounts and other offering expenses, to repay outstanding borrowings and for other general corporate purposes. The Company's 2010 Senior Notes are guaranteed jointly, severally, fully and unconditionally, subject to certain customary limitations by certain of the Company’s domestic subsidiaries. Revolving Credit Facility On July 25, 2012 , the Company entered into a $350 million senior secured credit facility, comprised of a $200 million revolving credit tranche (the "Revolver") and a $150 million term loan tranche (the "Term Loan") with Deutsche Bank AG New York Branch, as administrative agent, Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as administrative agent and a syndication of lenders (the "Credit Facility"). The Credit Facility has a final maturity date of July 25, 2016 , subject to an optional one -year extension provided certain conditions are met. Up to $25 million of the borrowings under the Revolver may be used for letters of credit, up to $10 million of borrowings under the Revolver may be used for swing line loans and up to $35 million of borrowings under the Revolver may be used for alternative currency loans. The Term Loan requires quarterly amortization payments (a) during the first two years, in equal installments aggregating 5% of the original principal amount of the Term Loan per year, (b) during the second two years, in equal installments aggregating 7.5% of the original principal amount of the Term Loan per year, and (c) during the one -year extension period (if exercised), equal installments aggregating 10% of the original principal amount of the Term Loan. As discussed in Note 19 "Subsequent Events," the Company refinanced the Credit Facility on July 21, 2015 with a new facility with a five year term. As a result, the quarterly Term Loan amortization payments that would have been due over the next twelve months have been reflected as a long-term liability. The Credit Facility is unconditionally guaranteed, jointly and severally, by certain of the Company's domestic subsidiaries. The subsidiary guarantors currently include all subsidiaries that guarantee the obligations under the Company's Indenture governing the terms of its 2010 and 2012 Senior Notes. The Credit Facility is secured by first priority pledges of (i) 100% of the ownership interests in certain domestic subsidiaries owned by the Company and the guarantors, (ii) 65% of the ownership interests in (a) the top-tier foreign holding company of the Company's foreign subsidiaries, and (b) the domestic subsidiary that owns the top-tier foreign holding company of the Company's foreign subsidiaries and (iii) all presently existing and future domestic franchise agreements (the "Franchise Agreements") between the Company and individual franchisees, but only to the extent that the Franchise Agreements may be pledged without violating any law of the relevant jurisdiction or conflicting with any existing contractual obligation of the Company or the applicable franchisee. At the time that the maximum total leverage ratio is required to be no greater than 4.0 to 1.0 (beginning of year 4 of the Credit Facility), the security interest in the Franchise Agreements will be released. The Company may at any time prior to the final maturity date increase the amount of the Credit Facility by up to an additional $100 million to the extent that any one or more lenders commit to being a lender for the additional amount and certain other customary conditions are met. Such additional amounts may take the form of an increased revolver or term loan. The Company may elect to have borrowings under the Credit Facility bear interest at a rate equal to (i) LIBOR , plus a margin ranging from 200 to 425 basis points based on the Company's total leverage ratio or (ii) a base rate plus a margin ranging from 100 to 325 basis points based on the Company's total leverage ratio. The Credit Facility requires the Company to pay a fee on the undrawn portion of the Revolver, calculated on the basis of the average daily unused amount of the Revolver multiplied by 0.30% per annum. The Company may reduce the Revolver commitment and/or prepay the Term Loan in whole or in part at any time without penalty, subject to reimbursement of customary breakage costs, if any. Any Term Loan prepayments made by the Company shall be applied to reduce the scheduled amortization payments in direct order of maturity. Additionally, the Credit Facility requires that the Company and its restricted subsidiaries comply with various covenants, including with respect to restrictions on liens, incurring indebtedness, making investments, paying dividends or repurchasing stock, and effecting mergers and/or asset sales. With respect to dividends, the Company may not make any payment if there is an existing event of default or if the payment would create an event of default. In addition, if the Company's total leverage ratio exceeds 4.50 to 1.00, the Company is generally restricted from paying aggregate dividends in excess of $50.0 million during any calendar year. The Credit Facility also imposes financial maintenance covenants requiring the Company to maintain: • a total leverage ratio of not more than 5.75 to 1.00 in year 1, 5.00 to 1.00 in year 2, 4.50 to 1.00 in year 3 and 4.00 to 1.00 thereafter, • a maximum secured leverage ratio of not more than 2.50 to 1.00 in year 1, 2.25 to 1.00 in year 2, 2.00 to 1.00 in year 3 and 1.75 to 1.00 thereafter, and • a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio of not less than 2.00 to 1.00 in years 1 and 2, 2.25 to 1.00 in year 3 and 2.50 to 1.00 thereafter. The Credit Facility includes customary events of default, the occurrence of which, following any applicable cure period, would permit the lenders to, among other things, declare the principal, accrued interest and other obligations of the Company under the Credit Facility to be immediately due and payable. At June 30, 2015 , the Company was in compliance with all financial covenants under the Credit Facility. At June 30, 2015 , the Company had $123.8 million under the Term Loan and $13.0 million outstanding under the Revolver. At December 31, 2014, the Company had $129.4 million outstanding under the Term Loan and no amounts outstanding under the Revolver. Fixed Rate Collateralized Mortgage On December 30, 2014, a court awarded the Company title to an office building as settlement for a portion of an outstanding loan receivable for which the building was pledged as collateral. In conjunction with the court award, the Company also assumed the $9.5 million mortgage on the property with a fixed interest rate of 7.26% . The mortgage which is collateralized by the office building requires monthly payments of principal and interest and matures in December 2020 with a a balloon payment due of $6.9 million . At the time of acquisition, the Company determined that the fixed interest rate of 7.26% exceeded market interest rates and therefore the Company increased the carrying value of the debt by $1.2 million to record the debt at fair value. The fair value adjustment will be amortized over the remaining term of the mortgage utilizing the effective interest method. Economic Development Loans The Company entered into economic development agreements with various governmental entities in conjunction with the relocation of its corporate headquarters in April 2013. In accordance with these agreements, the governmental entities agreed to advance approximately $4.4 million to the Company to offset a portion of the corporate headquarters relocation and tenant improvement costs in consideration of the employment of permanent, full-time employees within the jurisdictions. At June 30, 2015 , the Company had been advanced approximately $3.5 million pursuant to these agreements and expects to receive the remaining $0.9 million over the next several years, subject to annual appropriations by the governmental entities. These advances bear interest at a rate of 3% per annum. Repayment of the advances is contingent upon the Company achieving certain performance conditions. Performance conditions are measured annually on December 31 st and primarily relate to maintaining certain levels of employment within the various jurisdictions. If the Company fails to meet an annual performance condition, the Company may be required to repay a portion or all of the advances including accrued interest by April 30 th following the measurement date. Any outstanding advances at the expiration of the Company's 10 year corporate headquarters lease in 2023 will be forgiven in full. The advances will be included in long-term debt in the Company's consolidated balance sheets until the Company determines that the future performance conditions will be met over the entire term of the agreement and the Company will not be required to repay the advances. The Company accrues interest on the portion of the advances that it expects to repay. The Company was in compliance with all current performance conditions as of June 30, 2015 . |

Compensation Related Costs [Abstract] | |
Non-Qualified Retirement, Savings and Investment Plans | Non-Qualified Retirement, Savings and Investment Plans The Company sponsors two non-qualified retirement savings and investment plans for certain employees and senior executives. Employee and Company contributions are maintained in separate irrevocable trusts. Legally, the assets of the trusts remain those of the Company; however, access to the trusts' assets is severely restricted. The trusts cannot be revoked by the Company or an acquirer, but the assets are subject to the claims of the Company's general creditors. The participants do not have the right to assign or transfer contractual rights in the trusts. In 2002, the Company adopted the Choice Hotels International, Inc. Executive Deferred Compensation Plan ("EDCP") which became effective January 1, 2003. Under the EDCP, certain executive officers may defer a portion of their salary into an irrevocable trust. Prior to January 1, 2010, participants could elect an investment return of either the annual yield of the Moody's Average Corporate Bond Rate Yield Index plus 300 basis points, or a return based on a selection of available diversified investment options. Effective January 1, 2010, the Moody's Average Corporate Bond Rate Yield Index plus 300 basis points is no longer an investment option for salary deferrals made on compensation earned after December 31, 2009. The Company recorded current and long-term deferred compensation liabilities of $10.4 million and $10.2 million , as of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 , respectively, related to these deferrals and credited investment returns. Compensation expense is recorded in SG&A expense on the Company's consolidated statements of income based on the change in the deferred compensation obligation related to earnings credited to participants as well as changes in the fair value of diversified investments. Compensation expense recorded in SG&A related to the EDCP for the three months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 was $0.1 million and $0.2 million , respectively. Compensation expense recorded in SG&A related to the EDCP for the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 was $0.3 million and $0.4 million , respectively. The Company has invested the employee salary deferrals in diversified long-term investments which are intended to provide investment returns that partially offset the earnings credited to the participants. The diversified investments held in the trusts totaled $5.3 million and $4.6 million as of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 , respectively, and are recorded at their fair value, based on quoted market prices. At June 30, 2015 , the Company expects $0.2 million of the assets held in the trusts to be distributed to participants during the next twelve months. These investments are considered trading securities and therefore the changes in the fair value of the diversified assets is included in other gains and losses in the accompanying consolidated statements of income. The Company recorded investment gains and (losses) related to the EDCP during the three months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 of approximately ( $42 thousand ) and $0.1 million , respectively. The Company recorded investment gains related to the EDCP during the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 of approximately $0.1 million in each six month period. In addition, the EDCP Plan held shares of the Company's common stock with a market value of $0.2 million at both June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 , which were recorded as a component of shareholders' deficit. In 1997, the Company adopted the Choice Hotels International, Inc. Non-Qualified Retirement Savings and Investment Plan ("Non-Qualified Plan"). The Non-Qualified Plan allows certain employees who do not participate in the EDCP to defer a portion of their salary and invest these amounts in a selection of available diversified investment options. As of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 , the Company had recorded a deferred compensation liability of $14.0 million and $14.4 million , respectively, related to these deferrals. Compensation expense is recorded in SG&A expense on the Company's consolidated statements of income based on the change in the deferred compensation obligation related to earnings credited to participants as well as changes in the fair value of diversified investments. The net increase (decrease) in compensation expense recorded in SG&A related to the Non-Qualified Plan for the three months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 was ( $0.4 million ) and $0.4 million , respectively. The net increase (decrease) in compensation expense recorded in SG&A related to the Non-Qualified Plan for the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 was ( $0.2 million ) and $0.2 million , respectively. The diversified investments held in the trusts were $13.1 million at June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 and are recorded at their fair value, based on quoted market prices. These investments are considered trading securities and therefore, the changes in the fair value of the diversified assets is included in other gains and losses in the accompanying consolidated statements of income. The Company recorded investment gains (losses) related to the Non-Qualified Plan during the three months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 of approximately ( $0.1 million ) and $0.3 million , respectively. The Company recorded investment gains (losses) related to the Non-Qualified Plan during the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 of approximately ( $11 thousand ) and $0.4 million , respectively. In addition, the Non-Qualified Plan held shares of the Company's common stock with a market value of $0.9 million and $1.3 million at June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 , respectively, which are recorded as a component of shareholders' deficit. |

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract] | |
Fair Value Measurements | Fair Value Measurements The Company estimates the fair value of its financial instruments utilizing a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value. The following summarizes the three levels of inputs, as well as the assets that the Company values using those levels of inputs. Level 1 : Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities. The Company’s Level 1 assets consist of marketable securities (primarily mutual funds) held in the Company’s EDCP and Non-Qualified Plan deferred compensation plans. Level 2 : Observable inputs, other than quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities, such as quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable. The Company’s Level 2 assets consist of money market funds held in the Company’s EDCP and Non-Qualified Plan deferred compensation plans and those recorded in cash and cash equivalents. Level 3 : Unobservable inputs, supported by little or no market data available, where the reporting entity is required to develop its own assumptions to determine the fair value of the instrument. The Company's policy is to recognize transfers in and transfers out of the three levels of the fair value hierarchy as of the end of each quarterly reporting period. There were no transfers between Level 1, 2 and 3 assets during the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 . As of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 , the Company had the following assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis: Fair Value Measurements at Reporting Date Using Total Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Assets (in thousands) As of June 30, 2015 Money market funds, included in cash and cash equivalents $ 50,001 $ — $ 50,001 $ — Mutual funds (1) 17,275 17,275 — — Money market funds (1) 1,173 — 1,173 — $ 68,449 $ 17,275 $ 51,174 $ — As of December 31, 2014 Money market funds, included in cash and cash equivalents $ 50,001 $ — $ 50,001 $ — Mutual funds (1) 16,405 16,405 — — Money market funds (1) 1,348 — 1,348 — $ 67,754 $ 16,405 $ 51,349 $ — ________________________ (1) Included in Investments, employee benefit plans fair value on the consolidated balance sheets. Other Financial Instruments The Company believes that the fair value of its current assets and current liabilities approximate their reported carrying amounts due to the short-term nature of these items. In addition, the interest rates of the Company's Credit Facility adjust frequently based on current market rates; accordingly its carrying amount approximates fair value. The Company estimates the fair value of notes receivable which approximate their carrying value, utilizing an analysis of future cash flows and credit worthiness for similar types of arrangements. Based upon the availability of market data, the notes receivable have been classified as Level 3 inputs. The primary sensitivity in these calculations is based on the selection of appropriate interest and discount rates. For further information on the notes receivables, see Note 3. The fair value of the Company's $250 million and $400 million senior notes are classified as Level 2 as the significant inputs are observable in an active market. At June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 , the $250 million senior notes had an approximate fair value of $271.3 million and $268.9 million , respectively. At June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 , the $400 million senior notes had an approximate fair value of $435.0 million and $437.7 million , respectively. Fair values estimated are made at a specific point in time, are subjective in nature and involve uncertainties and matters of significant judgment. Settlement of such fair value amounts may not be possible and may not be a prudent management decision. |

Disclosure of Compensation Related Costs, Share-based Payments [Abstract] | |
Share-Based Compensation and Capital Stock | Share-Based Compensation and Capital Stock No stock options were granted during the three months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 . The Company granted 0.5 million and 0.7 million options to certain employees of the Company at a fair value of $6.2 million and $5.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 , respectively. The stock options granted by the Company had an exercise price equal to the market price of the Company's common stock on the date of grant. The fair value of the options granted was estimated on the grant date using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following weighted average assumptions: 2015 Grants 2014 Grants Risk-free interest rate 1.45 % 1.56 % Expected volatility 23.94 % 25.01 % Expected life of stock option 4.6 years 4.5 years Dividend yield 1.23 % 1.62 % Requisite service period 4 years 4 years Contractual life 7 years 7 years Weighted average fair value of options granted (per option) $ 12.39 $ 8.82 The expected life of the options and volatility are based on historical data which is believed to be indicative of future exercise patterns or actual volatility. Historical volatility is calculated based on a period that corresponds to the expected term of the stock option. The dividend yield and the risk-free rate of return are calculated on the grant date based on the then current dividend rate and the risk-free rate of return for the period corresponding to the expected life of the stock option. Compensation expense related to the fair value of these awards is recognized straight-line over the requisite service period based on those awards that ultimately vest. The aggregate intrinsic value of the stock options outstanding and exercisable at June 30, 2015 was $33.4 million and $26.5 million , respectively. The total intrinsic value of options exercised during the three months ended June 30, 2015 was approximately $0.1 million . There were no options exercised during the three months ended June 30, 2014 . The total intrinsic value of options exercised during the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 was approximately $8.6 million and $1.3 million , respectively. The Company received approximately $5.7 million and $1.5 million in proceeds from the exercise of 232,792 and 58,749 employee stock options during the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 , respectively. The Company received approximately $0.1 million in proceeds from the exercise of 3,829 employee stock options during the three months ended June 30, 2015 . Restricted Stock The following table is a summary of activity related to restricted stock grants: Three Months Ended Six Months Ended June 30, June 30, 2015 2014 2015 2014 Restricted share grants 20,653 17,262 106,445 147,055 Weighted average grant date fair value per share $ 62.57 $ 44.62 $ 63.29 $ 46.46 Aggregate grant date fair value ($000) $ 1,292 $ 770 $ 6,737 $ 6,833 Restricted shares forfeited 3,664 2,964 8,442 4,296 Vesting service period of shares granted 12 - 48 months 12 - 36 months 12 - 48 months 12 - 48 months Fair value of shares vested ($000) 1,054 935 11,739 8,203 Compensation expense related to the fair value of these awards is recognized straight-line over the requisite service period based on those restricted stock grants that ultimately vest. The fair value of grants is measured by the market price of the Company’s stock on the date of grant. Restricted stock awards generally vest ratably over the service period beginning with the first anniversary of the grant date. Awards granted to retirement eligible non-employee directors are recognized over the shorter of the requisite service period or the length of time until retirement since the terms of the grant provide that the awards will vest upon retirement. Performance Vested Restricted Stock Units The Company has granted performance vested restricted stock units ("PVRSU") to certain employees. The fair value is measured by the market price of the Company's common stock on the date of the grant. The vesting of these stock awards is contingent upon the Company achieving performance targets at the end of specified performance periods and the employees' continued employment. The performance conditions affect the number of shares that will ultimately vest. The range of possible stock-based award vesting is generally between 0% and 200% of the initial target. If minimum performance targets are not attained then no awards will vest under the terms of the various PVRSU agreements. Compensation expense related to these awards is recognized over the requisite service period based on the Company's estimate of the achievement of the various performance targets. The Company has currently estimated that between 0% and 180% of the various award targets will be achieved. Compensation expense is recognized ratably over the requisite service period only on those PVRSUs that ultimately vest. The following table is a summary of activity related to PVRSU grants: Three Months Ended Six Months Ended June 30, June 30, 2015 2014 2015 2014 Performance vested restricted stock units granted at target 20,956 — 51,309 24,678 Weighted average grant date fair value per share $ 57.27 $ — $ 60.94 $ 45.59 Aggregate grant date fair value ($000) $ 1,200 $ — $ 3,126 $ 1,125 Stock units forfeited — — — — Requisite service period 36 - 43 months — 36 - 43 months 36 months During the three months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 , no PVRSU grants vested.

The calculation of EPS for common stock shown above excludes the income attributable to the unvested restricted share awards from the numerator and excludes the dilutive impact of those awards from the denominator. At June 30, 2015 and 2014 , the Company had 2.2 million and 2.3 million outstanding stock options, respectively. Stock options are included in the diluted earnings per share calculation using the treasury stock method and average market prices during the period, unless the stock options would be anti-dilutive. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 , the Company excluded 0.5 million of anti-dilutive stock options from the diluted earnings per share calculation. For the three months ended June 30, 2014 , the Company excluded 0.7 million of anti-dilutive stock options from the diluted EPS calculation. For the six months ended June 30, 2014 , the Company did not exclude any anti-dilutive stock options from the diluted EPS calculation. PVRSUs are also included in the diluted earnings per share calculation when the performance conditions have been met at the reporting date. However, at June 30, 2015 and 2014 , PVRSUs totaling 213,119 and 222,385 , respectively, were excluded from the computation since the performance conditions had not been met. |

Segment Reporting [Abstract] | |
Reportable Segment Information | Reportable Segment Information Franchising: Franchising includes the Company's hotel franchising operations consisting of its eleven brands. The eleven brands are aggregated within this segment considering their similar economic characteristics, types of customers, distribution channels and regulatory business environments. Revenues from the franchising business include royalty fees, initial franchise and relicensing fees, marketing and reservation system fees, procurement services revenue and other franchising related revenue. The Company is obligated under its franchise agreements to provide marketing and reservation services appropriate for the operation of its systems. These services do not represent separate reportable segments as their operations are directly related to the Company's franchising business. The revenues received from franchisees that are used to pay for part of the Company's ongoing operations are included in franchising revenues and are offset by the related expenses paid for marketing and reservation activities to calculate franchising operating income. SkyTouch Technology: SkyTouch Technology ("SkyTouch") is a division of the Company that develops and markets cloud-based technology products to hoteliers not under franchise agreements with the Company. The Company evaluates its segments based primarily on the results of the segment without allocating corporate expenses, income taxes or indirect general and administrative expenses. Equity in earnings or losses from franchising related joint ventures is allocated to the Company's franchising segment. Corporate and Other revenue and expenses consist primarily of overhead selling, general and administrative costs such as finance, legal, human resources and other general administrative expenses that are not allocated to the Company's two segments and activity related to the ownership of a commercial office building leased to a third party. As described in Note 4, certain interest expenses related to the Company's marketing and reservation activities are allocated to the franchising segment. The Company does not allocate the remaining interest expense, interest income, other gains and losses or income taxes to its segments.

Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract] | |
Commitments and Contingencies | Commitments and Contingencies The Company is not a party to any litigation other than litigation in the ordinary course of business. The Company's management and legal counsel do not expect that the ultimate outcome of any of its currently ongoing legal proceedings, individually or collectively, will have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial position, results of operations or cash flows. Contingencies On October 9, 2012, the Company entered into a limited payment guaranty with regards to a VIE's $18.0 million bank loan for the construction of a hotel franchised under one of the Company's brands in the United States. Under the terms of the limited guaranty, the Company has agreed to guarantee 25% of the outstanding principal balance for a maximum exposure of $4.5 million and accrued and unpaid interest, as well as any unpaid expenses incurred by the lender. The limited guaranty shall remain in effect until the maximum amount guaranteed by the Company is paid in full. In addition to the limited guaranty, the Company entered into an agreement in which the Company guarantees the completion of the construction of the hotel and an environmental indemnity agreement which indemnifies the lending institution from and against any damages relating to or arising out of possible environmental contamination issues with regards to the property. On June 30, 2015, the VIE refinanced the construction loan into a mini-permanent loan with the same lender. In connection with the refinancing, the Company entered into a limited payment guaranty on substantially the same terms as the original limited payment guaranty and reaffirmed its obligations under the environmental indemnity agreement. In addition, the completion guaranty was terminated. On November 15, 2013, the Company entered into a limited payment guaranty with regards to a VIE's $46.2 million bank loan for the construction of a hotel franchised under one of the Company's brands in the United States. Under the terms of the limited guaranty, the Company has agreed to unconditionally guarantee and become surety for the full and timely payment of the guaranteed outstanding principal balance, as well as any unpaid expenses incurred by the lender. The guarantee is limited to 25% of the outstanding principal balance of the $46.2 million loan due at any time for a maximum exposure of $11.6 million . The limited guaranty shall remain in effect until the maximum amount guaranteed by the Company is repaid in full. The maturity date of the VIE's loan is May 2017. In conjunction with this guaranty, the Company has entered into a reimbursement and guaranty agreement with certain individuals that requires them to reimburse the Company in an amount equal to 75% of any payments made by the Company under this limited payment guaranty. The Company believes the likelihood of having to perform under the aforementiond limited payment guarantees was remote at June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 . Commitments The Company has the following commitments outstanding at June 30, 2015 : • The Company provides financing in the form of forgivable promissory notes or cash incentives to franchisees for property improvements, hotel development efforts and other purposes. At June 30, 2015 , the Company had commitments to extend an additional $49.3 million for these purposes provided certain conditions are met by its franchisees, of which $9.5 million is expected to be advanced in the next twelve months. • The Company committed to make additional capital contributions totaling $2.1 million to existing joint ventures related to the construction of various hotels to be operated under the Company's Cambria hotel & suites brand. These commitments are expected to be funded in the next twelve months. In the ordinary course of business, the Company enters into numerous agreements that contain standard indemnities whereby the Company indemnifies another party for breaches of representations and warranties. Such indemnifications are granted under various agreements, including those governing (i) purchases or sales of assets or businesses, (ii) leases of real estate, (iii) licensing of trademarks, (iv) access to credit facilities, (v) issuances of debt or equity securities, and (vi) certain operating agreements. The indemnifications issued are for the benefit of the (i) buyers in sale agreements and sellers in purchase agreements, (ii) landlords in lease contracts, (iii) franchisees in licensing agreements, (iv) financial institutions in credit facility arrangements, (v) underwriters in debt or equity security issuances and (vi) parties under certain operating agreements. In addition, these parties are also generally indemnified against any third party claim resulting from the transaction that is contemplated in the underlying agreement. While some of these indemnities extend only for the duration of the underlying agreement, many survive the expiration of the term of the agreement or extend into perpetuity (unless subject to a legal statute of limitations). There are no specific limitations on the maximum potential amount of future payments that the Company could be required to make under these indemnities, nor is the Company able to develop an estimate of the maximum potential amount of future payments to be made under these indemnifications as the triggering events are not subject to predictability. With respect to certain of the aforementioned indemnities, such as indemnifications of landlords against third party claims for the use of real estate property leased by the Company, the Company maintains insurance coverage that mitigates potential liability. |

Discontinued Operations and Disposal Groups [Abstract] | |
Discontinued Operations | Discontinued Operations In the first quarter of 2014, the Company's management approved a plan to sell the three Company-owned hotels operated under the MainStay Suites brand and completed the disposal of these hotels during 2014. The Company determined that this disposal transaction met the definition of a discontinued operation since the operations and cash flows of this component has been eliminated from the on-going operations of the Company and the Company will not have significant continuing involvement in the operations of the hotels after the disposal transaction. The operations related to these three Company-owned hotels were reported as a component of "Corporate and Other" for segment reporting purposes. The results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 and the Company's financial position as of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 presented in these Consolidated Financial Statements reflect these three Company-owned hotels as discontinued operations.

Subsequent Events [Abstract] | |
Subsequent Events | Subsequent Events On July 21, 2015 , the Company refinanced its existing $350 million senior secured credit facility, comprised of a $200 million revolving credit tranche and a $150 million term loan tranche by entering into a new senior unsecured revolving credit agreement (“Credit Agreement”), with Deutsche Bank AG New York Branch, as administrative agent. The Credit Agreement provides for a $450 million unsecured revolving credit facility (the “New Revolver”) with a final maturity date of July 21, 2020 , subject to optional one -year extensions that can be requested by the Company prior to each of the first, second and third anniversaries of the closing date of the New Revolver. The effectiveness of any such extensions is subject to the consent of the lenders under the Credit Agreement and certain customary conditions. Up to $35 million of borrowings under the New Revolver may be used for alternative currency loans and up to $15 million of borrowings under the New Revolver may be used for swing line loans. The New Revolver is unconditionally guaranteed, jointly and severally, by certain of the Company’s domestic subsidiaries, which are considered restricted subsidiaries under the Credit Agreement. The subsidiary guarantors currently include all subsidiaries that guarantee the obligations under the Company's Indenture governing the terms of its 5.75% senior notes due 2020 and its 5.70% senior notes due 2020. If the Company achieves and maintains an Investment Grade Rating, as defined in the Credit Agreement, then the subsidiary guarantees will at the election of the Company be released and the New Revolver will not be guaranteed. The Company may at any time prior to the final maturity date increase the amount of the New Revolver by up to an additional $150 million to the extent that any one or more lenders commit to being a lender for the additional amount and certain other customary conditions are met. The Company currently may elect to have borrowings under the New Revolver bear interest at a rate equal to (i) LIBOR plus a margin ranging from 135 to 175 basis points based on the Company’s total leverage ratio or (ii) a base rate plus a margin ranging from 35 to 75 basis points based on the Company’s total leverage ratio. If the Company achieves an Investment Grade Rating, then the Company may elect to use a different, ratings-based, pricing grid set forth in the Credit Agreement. The Credit Agreement requires the Company to pay a fee on the undrawn portion of the New Revolver, calculated on the basis of the average daily unused amount of the New Revolver multiplied by 0.20% per annum. If the Company achieves an Investment Grade Rating and it elects to use the ratings-based pricing grid set forth in the Credit Agreement, then the Company will be required to pay a fee on the total commitments under the New Revolver, calculated on the basis of the actual daily amount of the commitments under the New Revolver (regardless of usage) times a percentage per annum ranging from 0.10% to 0.25% (depending on the Company’s senior unsecured long-term debt rating). The Credit Agreement requires that the Company and its restricted subsidiaries comply with various covenants, including with respect to restrictions on liens, incurring indebtedness, making investments and effecting mergers and/or asset sales. With respect to dividends, the Company may not declare or make any payment if there is an existing event of default or if the payment would create an event of default. In addition, if the Company’s total leverage ratio exceeds 4.0 to 1.0, the Company is generally restricted from paying aggregate dividends in excess of $50 million in any calendar year. The Credit Agreement imposes financial maintenance covenants requiring the Company to maintain a total leverage ratio of not more than 4.5 to 1.0 and a consolidated fixed charge coverage ratio of at least 2.5 to 1.0. If the Company achieves and maintains an Investment Grade Rating, then the Company will not need to comply with the consolidated fixed charge coverage ratio covenant. The Credit Agreement includes customary events of default, the occurrence of which, following any applicable cure period, would permit the lenders to, among other things, declare the principal, accrued interest and other obligations of the Company under the Credit Agreement to be immediately due and payable. The proceeds of the New Revolver are expected to be used for general corporate purposes, including working capital, debt repayment, stock repurchases, dividends, investments and other permitted uses set forth in the Credit Agreement. |

New Accounting Guidance | Recently Adopted Accounting Guidance In April 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-08, Presentation of Financial Statements and Property, Plant, and Equipment: Reporting Discontinued Operations and Disclosures of Disposals of Components of an Entity ("ASU No. 2014-08"). ASU No. 2014-08 changes the definition of a discontinued operation to include only those disposals of components of an entity that represent a strategic shift that has (or will have) a major effect on an entity's operations and financial results. ASU No. 2014-08 is effective for all disposals (or classifications as held for sale) of components of an entity that occur within annual periods beginning on or after December 15, 2014, and interim periods within those years. The Company adopted this ASU on January 1, 2015 and it did not have a material impact on its financial statements. Future Adoption of Recently Announced Accounting Guidance In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue From Contracts with Customers ("ASU 2014-09"), which impacts virtually all aspects of an entity's revenue recognition. ASU No. 2014-09 supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in Topic 605, Revenue Recognition, as well as most industry-specific guidance, and significantly enhances comparability of revenue recognition practices across entities and industries by providing a principles-based, comprehensive framework for addressing revenue recognition issues. In order for a provider of promised goods or services to recognize as revenue the consideration that it expects to receive in exchange for the promised goods or services, the provider should apply the following five steps: (1) identify the contract with a customer(s); (2) identify the performance obligations in the contract; (3) determine the transaction price; (4) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and (5) recognize revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation. ASU No. 2014-09 also specifies the accounting for some costs to obtain or fulfill a contract with a customer and provides enhanced disclosure requirements. On July 9, 2015 the FASB voted to defer ASU No. 2014-09 for one year, and with that deferral, the standard will be effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within that reporting period, which will be our 2018 first quarter. However, early adoption is permitted to the original effective date of January 1, 2017. We are permitted to use either the retrospective or modified retrospective method when adopting ASU No. 2014-09. We are still assessing the potential impact that ASU No. 2014-09 will have on our financial statements and disclosures. In January 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-01, Income Statement - Extraordinary and Unusual Items (Subtopic 225-20) ("ASU No. 2015-01"). ASU No. 2015-01 was issued changing the requirements for reporting extraordinary and unusual items in the income statement. The update eliminates the concept of extraordinary items. The presentation and disclosure guidance for items that are unusual in nature or occur infrequently will be retained and will be expanded to include items that are both unusual in nature and infrequently occurring. ASU No. 2015-01 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2015, including interim periods within that reporting period. Early adoption is permitted provided that the guidance is applied from the beginning of the fiscal year of adoption. The adoption of this newly issued guidance is not expected to have an impact to our consolidated financial statements. In February 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-02, Consolidation (Topic 810) ("ASU No. 2015-02"). ASU No. 2015-02 changes the analysis that a reporting entity must perform to determine whether it should consolidate certain types of legal entities. This guidance must be applied using one of two retrospective application methods and will be effective for fiscal years, and for interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2015. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact, if any, the adoption of this newly issued guidance will have on its consolidated financial statements. In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-03, Interest - Imputation of Interest (Subtopic 835-30) ("ASU No. 2015-03"). ASU No. 2015-03 changes the presentation of debt issuance costs in the financial statements to present such costs as a direct deduction from the related debt liability rather than as an asset. Amortization of debt issuance costs will continue to be reported as interest expense. This standard is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2015, including interim periods within that reporting period. Early adoption is permitted and the standard is to be applied on retrospective basis. The Company currently does not believe that ASU No. 2015-03 will have a material impact on its consolidated financial position, results of operations, or cash flows. In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-05, Intangibles-Goodwill - Internal Use Software (Subtopic 350-40) ("ASU No. 2015-05"). ASU No. 2015-05 provides guidance to customers about whether a cloud computing arrangement includes a software license or should be accounted for as a service contract. The standard is effective for annual reporting periods, including interim periods within those annual periods beginning after December 15, 2015. Early adoption is permitted and an entity can elect to adopt the amendment either (1) prospectively to all arrangements entered into or materially modified after the effective date or (2) retrospectively. The adoption of this newly issued guidance is not expected to have a material impact to our consolidated financial statements. |
