Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Organization, Consolidation, Basis of Presentation, Business Description and Accounting Policies [Text Block]	1 . Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Organization Apple Hospitality REIT, Inc., together with its wholly-owned subsidiaries (the “Company”), is a Virginia corporation that has elected to be treated as a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) for federal income tax purposes. The Company is a self-advised REIT that invests in income-producing real estate, primarily in the lodging sector, in the United States. The Company’s fiscal year end is December 31. The Company has no foreign operations or assets and its operating structure includes only one reportable segment. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. Although the Company has interests in potential variable interest entities through its purchase commitments, it is not the primary beneficiary as the Company does not have any elements of power in the decision making process of these entities, and therefore does not consolidate the entities. As of June 30, 2018, the Company owned 243 hotels with an aggregate of 30,929 rooms located in 34 states, including two hotels with an aggregate of 175 rooms classified as held for sale, which were sold to an unrelated party in July 2018. The Company’s common shares are listed on the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) under the ticker symbol “APLE.” Basis of Presentation The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the rules and regulations for reporting on Form 10-Q. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information required by United States generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. These unaudited financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements included in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017 (the “2017 Form 10-K”). Operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the twelve month period ending December 31, 2018. Use of Estimates The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Net Income Per Common Share Basic net income per common share is computed based upon the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net income per common share is calculated after giving effect to all potential common shares that were dilutive and outstanding for the period. Basic and diluted net income per common share were the same for each of the periods presented. Reclassifications Certain line items in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, and the consolidated statements of cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2017 have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation. Reclassifications had no effect on previously reported net income or shareholders’ equity.

The Company leases all of its hotels to its wholly-owned taxable REIT subsidiary (or a subsidiary thereof) under master hotel lease agreements. Acquisitions The Company acquired four hotels during the first six months of 2018. The following table sets forth the location, brand, manager, date acquired, number of rooms and gross purchase price for each hotel. All dollar amounts are in thousands. City State Brand Manager Date Acquired Rooms Gross Purchase Price (1) Atlanta/Downtown GA Hampton McKibbon 2/5/2018 119 $ 24,000 Memphis TN Hampton Crestline 2/5/2018 144 39,000 Phoenix AZ Hampton North Central 5/2/2018 210 44,300 Atlanta/Perimeter Dunwoody GA Hampton LBA 6/28/2018 132 29,500 605 $ 136,800 (1) The gross purchase price excludes transaction costs. During the year ended December 31, 2017, the Company acquired six hotels including one in the first six months of 2017. The following table sets forth the location, brand, manager, date acquired, number of rooms and gross purchase price for each hotel. All dollar amounts are in thousands. City State Brand Manager Date Acquired Rooms Gross Purchase Price (1) Fort Worth TX Courtyard LBA 2/2/2017 124 $ 18,034 Birmingham (2) AL Hilton Garden Inn LBA 9/12/2017 104 19,162 Birmingham (2) AL Home2 Suites LBA 9/12/2017 106 19,276 Portland ME Residence Inn Pyramid 10/13/2017 179 55,750 Salt Lake City UT Residence Inn Huntington 10/20/2017 136 25,500 Anchorage AK Home2 Suites Stonebridge 12/1/2017 135 24,048 784 $ 161,770 (1) The gross purchase price excludes transaction costs. (2) The hotels in Birmingham, AL are part of an adjoining dual-branded complex located on the same site. The Company used borrowings under its revolving credit facility to purchase each of these hotels. The acquisitions of these hotel properties were accounted for as an acquisition of a group of assets, with costs incurred to effect the acquisition, which were not significant, capitalized as part of the cost of the assets acquired. For the four hotels acquired during the six months ended June 30, 2018, the amount of revenue and operating income included in the Company’s consolidated statement of operations from the date of acquisition through June 30, 2018 was approximately $7.1 million and $2.1 million, respectively. For the hotel acquired during the six months ended June 30, 2017, the amount of revenue and operating income included in the Company’s consolidated statement of operations from the date of acquisition through June 30, 2017 was approximately $1.9 million and $0.4 million, respectively. Hotel Contract Commitments As of June 30, 2018, the Company had outstanding contracts for the potential purchase of five hotels for a total purchase price of approximately $130.8 million. All five hotels are under development and are planned to be completed and opened for business over the next nine to 30 months from June 30, 2018, at which time closings on these hotels are expected to occur. Although the Company is working towards acquiring these hotels, there are many conditions to closing that have not yet been satisfied and there can be no assurance that closing on these hotels will occur under the outstanding purchase contracts. The following table summarizes the location, brand, date of purchase contract, expected number of rooms, refundable (if the seller does not meet its obligations under the contract) contract deposits paid, and gross purchase price for each of the contracts outstanding at June 30, 2018. All dollar amounts are in thousands.

The table shows the expected number of rooms upon hotel completion and the expected franchise brands. Assuming all conditions to closing are met, the purchases of these hotels are expected to occur over the next nine to 30 months from June 30, 2018. If the seller meets all of the conditions to closing, the Company is obligated to specifically perform under the contract. As the properties are under development, at this time, the seller has not met all of the conditions to closing. (2) These hotels are part of an adjoining combined 224-room, dual-branded complex that will be located on the same site. (3) These hotels are part of an adjoining combined 254-room, dual-branded complex that will be located on the same site. The Company intends to use borrowings under its revolving credit facility to purchase the hotels under contract if a closing occurs. Loss on Impairment of Depreciable Real Estate Assets During the second quarter of 2018, the Company identified three properties for potential sale: the Columbus, Georgia SpringHill Suites and TownePlace Suites (the “two Columbus hotels”) and the Springdale, Arkansas Residence Inn. In May 2018, the Company entered into separate contracts with the same unrelated party for the sale of the two Columbus hotels. As further discussed in Note 3, the Company completed the sale of the two Columbus hotels in July 2018 and classified the hotels as assets held for sale as of June 30, 2018. As a result, the Company recognized an impairment loss of approximately $0.5 million in the second quarter of 2018, representing the difference between the carrying values of the two Columbus hotels and the contracted sales prices, net of estimated selling costs, which are Level 1 inputs under the fair value hierarchy. The Company has committed to sell the Springdale, Arkansas Residence Inn and has received offers from unrelated parties that it is pursuing. Due to the change in the anticipated hold period for this hotel, the Company reviewed the estimated undiscounted cash flows to be generated by the property and determined that the undiscounted cash flows were less than its carrying value; therefore the Company recognized an impairment loss of approximately $2.6 million in the second quarter of 2018 to adjust the basis of this property to its estimated fair value, which was based on the offers received, net of estimated selling costs, which is a Level 2 input under the fair value hierarchy. The two Columbus hotels were previously identified for potential sale during the first quarter of 2017, at which time the Company recognized an impairment loss of approximately $7.9 million to adjust the bases of these properties to their estimated fair values, which were based on the then contracted sales prices, which were terminated in May 2017, net of estimated selling costs, a Level 1 input under the fair value hierarchy.

Disposal Groups, Including Discontinued Operations, Disclosure [Text Block]	3 . Assets Held for Sale and Dispositions Assets Held for Sale In May 2018, the Company entered into separate purchase and sale agreements with the same unrelated party for the sale of its 89-room SpringHill Suites and its 86-room TownePlace Suites hotels in Columbus, Georgia for a total combined gross sales price of $10.0 million. Since the buyer under the contracts had completed its due diligence and had made a non-refundable deposit, as of June 30, 2018, the Company classified the two Columbus hotels as held for sale at their estimated fair values which, as discussed in Note 2, were based on the contracted sales prices, net of estimated selling costs, resulting in an impairment loss during the second quarter of 2018. On July 13, 2018, the Company completed the sale of the hotels. 2017 Dispositions In December 2016, the Company entered into a purchase and sale agreement with an unrelated party for the sale of its 224-room Hilton hotel in Dallas, Texas for a gross sales price of approximately $56.1 million, as amended. On April 20, 2017, the Company completed the sale resulting in a gain of approximately $16.1 million, which is included in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017. The hotel had a carrying value totaling approximately $39.0 million at the date of sale. Under the contract, at closing, the mortgage loan secured by the Dallas, Texas Hilton hotel was assumed by the buyer with the buyer receiving a credit for the amount assumed, which was approximately $27.1 million at the date of sale. The Company’s consolidated statements of operations include operating income (loss) of approximately $(0.4) million and $0.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively, and approximately $(0.4) million and $(6.5) million for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively, relating to the results of operations of the three hotels noted above (the two Columbus hotels classified as held for sale as of June 30, 2018 and sold in July 2018, and the Dallas, Texas Hilton sold in April 2017). The sale of these properties does not represent a strategic shift that has, or will have, a major effect on the Company’s operations and financial results, and therefore the operating results for the period of ownership of these properties are included in income from continuing operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017. The net proceeds from the sales were used to pay down borrowings on the Company’s revolving credit facility.

Debt Disclosure [Abstract]
Debt Disclosure [Text Block]	4 . Debt $965 Million Credit Facility Prior to the Company’s debt refinancing in July 2018 as discussed below, the Company utilized an unsecured “$965 million credit facility” comprised of (i) a $540 million revolving credit facility with an initial maturity date of May 18, 2019 and (ii) a $425 million term loan facility with a maturity date of May 18, 2020, consisting of three term loans, all funded during 2015 (the “$425 million term loans”). Interest payments on the $965 million credit facility were due monthly and the interest rate, subject to certain exceptions, was equal to an annual rate of the one-month LIBOR (the London Inter-Bank Offered Rate for a one-month term) plus a margin ranging from 1.50% to 2.30%, depending upon the Company’s leverage ratio, as calculated under the terms of the credit agreement. The Company was also required to pay quarterly an unused facility fee at an annual rate of 0.20% or 0.30% on the unused portion of the revolving credit facility, based on the amount of borrowings outstanding during the quarter. $150 Million Term Loan Facility Prior to the Company’s debt refinancing in August 2018 as discussed below, the Company utilized an unsecured $150 million term loan facility (the “$150 million term loan facility”), consisting of a $50 million term loan with a maturity date of April 8, 2021 (the “$50 million term loan”) and a $100 million term loan with a maturity date of April 8, 2023 (the “$100 million term loan,” and collectively with the $50 million term loan, the “$150 million term loans”). The credit agreement contained requirements and covenants similar to the Company’s $965 million credit facility. Interest payments on the $150 million term loan facility were due monthly and the interest rate was equal to an annual rate of the one-month LIBOR plus a margin ranging from 1.45% to 2.20% for the $50 million term loan and 1.80% to 2.60% for the $100 million term loan, depending upon the Company’s leverage ratio, as calculated under the terms of the credit agreement. $85 M illion Term Loan On July 25, 2017, the Company entered into an unsecured $85 million term loan with a syndicate of commercial banks, with a maturity date of July 25, 2024 (the “$85 million term loan” and, together with the $425 million term loans and the $150 million term loans, the “term loans”). The credit agreement contains requirements and covenants similar to the Company’s $965 million credit facility. The Company may make voluntary prepayments in whole or in part, at any time, subject to certain conditions. Interest payments on the $85 million term loan are due monthly and the interest rate is equal to an annual rate of the one-month LIBOR plus a margin ranging from 1.80% to 2.60%, depending upon the Company’s leverage ratio, as calculated under the terms of the credit agreement.

(4) Annual fixed interest rate at the balance sheet date which includes the effect of interest rate swaps on the outstanding loan balance, subject to adjustment based on the Company’s leverage ratio. See Note 5 for more information on the interest rate swap agreements. At June 30, 2018, the credit agreements governing the $965 million credit facility, the $150 million term loan facility and the $85 million term loan contained mandatory prepayment requirements, customary affirmative covenants, negative covenants and events of default. The credit agreements required that the Company comply with various covenants, which include, among others, a minimum tangible net worth, maximum debt limits, minimum interest and fixed charge coverage ratios and restrictions on certain investments. The Company was in compliance with the applicable covenants at June 30, 2018. 2018 Debt Refinancing On July 27, 2018, the Company entered into an amendment and restatement of its $965 million credit facility, reducing the borrowing capacity to $850 million and extending the maturity dates (the “$850 million credit facility”). The $850 million credit facility is comprised of (i) a $425 million revolving credit facility with an initial maturity date of July 27, 2022 and (ii) a $425 million term loan facility consisting of two term loans: a $200 million term loan with a maturity date of July 27, 2023, and a $225 million term loan with a maturity date of January 31, 2024, both funded at closing. At closing, the Company repaid the outstanding $425 million term loans under the $965 million credit facility with the proceeds from the $425 million term loan facility and borrowed approximately $196 million under the $425 million revolving credit facility to repay the outstanding balance on its $540 million revolving credit facility and to pay closing costs. Subject to certain conditions including covenant compliance and additional fees, the $425 million revolving credit facility maturity date may be extended up to one year. The credit agreement for the $850 million credit facility contains requirements and covenants similar to the previous credit agreement for the $965 million credit facility. The Company may make voluntary prepayments in whole or in part, at any time. Interest payments on the $850 million credit facility are due monthly and the interest rate, subject to certain exceptions, is equal to an annual rate of the one-month LIBOR plus a margin ranging from 1.35% to 2.25%, depending upon the Company’s leverage ratio, as calculated under the terms of the credit agreement. The Company is also required to pay quarterly an unused facility fee at an annual rate of 0.20% or 0.25% on the unused portion of the $425 million revolving credit facility, based on the amount of borrowings outstanding during the quarter. Also, on August 2, 2018, the Company entered into an amendment and restatement of its $150 million term loan facility, increasing the borrowing capacity to $225 million and extending the maturity dates (the “$225 million term loan facility”). The $225 million term loan facility is comprised of (i) a $50 million term loan with a maturity date of August 2, 2023, which was funded at closing, and (ii) a $175 million term loan with a maturity date of August 2, 2025, of which $100 million was drawn at closing and the remaining $75 million may be drawn by the Company no later than January 31, 2019. At closing, the Company repaid the $150 million term loans under the $150 million term loan facility. The credit agreement contains requirements and covenants similar to the $850 million credit facility. The Company may make voluntary prepayments in whole or in part, at any time, subject to certain conditions. Interest payments on the $225 million term loan facility are due monthly and the interest rate, subject to certain exceptions, is equal to an annual rate of the one-month LIBOR plus a margin ranging from 1.35% to 2.50%, depending upon the Company’s leverage ratio, as calculated under the terms of the credit agreement.

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]
Fair Value Disclosures [Text Block]	5 . Fair Value of Financial Instruments Except as described below, the carrying value of the Company’s financial instruments approximates fair value due to the short-term nature of these financial instruments. Debt The Company estimates the fair value of its debt by discounting the future cash flows of each instrument at estimated market rates consistent with the maturity of a debt obligation with similar credit terms and credit characteristics, which are Level 3 inputs under the fair value hierarchy. Market rates take into consideration general market conditions and maturity. As of June 30, 2018, both the carrying value and estimated fair value of the Company’s debt were approximately $1.4 billion. As of December 31, 2017, both the carrying value and estimated fair value of the Company’s debt were approximately $1.2 billion. Both the carrying value and estimated fair value of the Company’s debt (as discussed above) is net of unamortized debt issuance costs related to term loans and mortgage debt for each specific year. Derivative Instruments Currently, the Company uses interest rate swaps to manage its interest rate risks on variable rate debt. Throughout the terms of these interest rate swaps, the Company pays a fixed rate of interest and receives a floating rate of interest equal to the one-month LIBOR. The swaps are designed to effectively fix the interest payments on variable rate debt instruments. These swap instruments are recorded at fair value and, if in an asset position, are included in other assets, net, and, if in a liability position, are included in accounts payable and other liabilities in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. The fair values of the Company’s interest rate swap agreements are determined using the market standard methodology of netting the discounted future fixed cash payments and the discounted expected variable cash receipts, which is considered a Level 2 measurement under the fair value hierarchy. The variable cash receipts are based on an expectation of future interest rates (forward curves) derived from observable market interest rate curves. The following table sets forth information for each of the Company’s interest rate swap agreements outstanding as of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017. All dollar amounts are in thousands.

Related Party Transactions [Abstract]
Related Party Transactions Disclosure [Text Block]	6 . Related Parties The Company has, and is expected to continue to engage in, transactions with related parties. These transactions cannot be construed to be at arm’s length and the results of the Company’s operations may be different if these transactions were conducted with non-related parties. There have been no changes to the contracts and relationships discussed in the 2017 Form 10-K. Below is a summary of the significant related party relationships in effect during the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017. Glade M. Knight, Executive Chairman of the Company, owns Apple Realty Group, Inc. (“ARG”), which receives support services from the Company and reimburses the Company for the cost of these services as discussed below. Mr. Knight is also currently a partner and Chief Executive Officer of Energy 11 GP, LLC and Energy Resources 12 GP, LLC, which are the respective general partners of Energy 11, L.P. and Energy Resources 12, L.P., each of which receive support services from ARG. The Company provides support services, including the use of the Company’s employees and corporate office, to ARG and is reimbursed by ARG for the cost of these services. The amounts reimbursed to the Company are based on the actual costs of the services and a good faith estimate of the proportionate amount of time incurred by the Company’s employees on behalf of ARG. Total reimbursed costs allocated by the Company to ARG for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017 totaled approximately $0.5 million and $0.3 million, respectively, and are recorded as a reduction to general and administrative expenses in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations. As part of the cost sharing arrangement, certain day-to-day transactions may result in amounts due to or from the Company and ARG. To efficiently manage cash disbursements, the Company or ARG may make payments for the other company. Under this cash management process, each company may advance or defer up to $1 million at any time. Each quarter, any outstanding amounts are settled between the companies. This process allows each company to minimize its cash on hand and reduces the cost for each company. The amounts outstanding at any point in time are not significant to either of the companies. As of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, total amounts due from ARG for reimbursements under the cost sharing structure each totaled approximately $0.3 million, and are included in other assets, net in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. The Company, through a wholly-owned subsidiary, Apple Air Holding, LLC, owns a Learjet used primarily for acquisition, asset management, renovation and public relations purposes. The aircraft is also leased to affiliates of the Company based on third party rates. Leasing activity to affiliates was not significant during the reporting periods. The Company also utilizes aircraft, owned through two entities, one of which is owned by the Company’s Executive Chairman, and the other, by its President and Chief Executive Officer, for acquisition, asset management, renovation and public relations purposes, and reimburses these entities at third party rates. Total costs incurred for the use of these aircraft during the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017 were approximately $0.05 million and $0.1 million, respectively, and are included in general and administrative expenses in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations.

Under the incentive plan for 2018 (the “2018 Incentive Plan”), participants are eligible to receive a bonus based on the achievement of certain 2018 performance measures, consisting of operational performance metrics (including targeted Modified Funds from Operations per share, Comparable Hotels revenue per available room growth and Adjusted Hotel EBITDA Margin growth) and shareholder return metrics (including shareholder return relative to a peer group and total shareholder return, over one-year, two-year and three-year periods). The components of the operational performance metrics and shareholder return metrics are equally weighted and the two metrics each account for 50% of the total target incentive compensation. The range of potential aggregate payouts under the 2018 Incentive Plan is $0 - $20 million.

Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements Disclosure [Text Block]	Organization Apple Hospitality REIT, Inc., together with its wholly-owned subsidiaries (the “Company”), is a Virginia corporation that has elected to be treated as a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) for federal income tax purposes. The Company is a self-advised REIT that invests in income-producing real estate, primarily in the lodging sector, in the United States. The Company’s fiscal year end is December 31. The Company has no foreign operations or assets and its operating structure includes only one reportable segment. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. Although the Company has interests in potential variable interest entities through its purchase commitments, it is not the primary beneficiary as the Company does not have any elements of power in the decision making process of these entities, and therefore does not consolidate the entities. As of June 30, 2018, the Company owned 243 hotels with an aggregate of 30,929 rooms located in 34 states, including two hotels with an aggregate of 175 rooms classified as held for sale, which were sold to an unrelated party in July 2018. The Company’s common shares are listed on the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) under the ticker symbol “APLE.”
