Organization [Abstract]	'
Organization	'
	Organization
	FelCor Lodging Trust Incorporated (NYSE:FCH), or FelCor, is a Maryland corporation, operating as a real estate investment trust, or REIT. FelCor is the sole general partner of, and the owner of a greater than 99.5% partnership interest in, FelCor Lodging Limited Partnership, or FelCor LP, through which we held ownership interests in 50 hotels as of September 30, 2014, two of which were held for sale. At September 30, 2014, we had an aggregate of 124,899,982 shares and units outstanding, consisting of 124,288,520 shares of FelCor common stock and 611,462 FelCor LP units not owned by FelCor.
	Of the 48 hotels not held for sale as of September 30, 2014, we owned 100% interests in 44 hotels, 60% interests in an entity owning one hotel and 50% interests in entities owning three hotels. We consolidate our real estate interests in the 45 hotels in which we held majority interests, and we record the real estate interests of the three hotels in which we held 50% interests using the equity method. We leased 47 of the 48 hotels in continuing operations to our taxable REIT subsidiaries, of which we own a controlling interest. We operated one 50% owned hotel without a lease. Because we owned controlling interests in these lessees, we consolidated our interests in these 47 hotels (which we refer to as our Consolidated Hotels) and reflect those hotels’ operating revenues and expenses in our statements of operations. Of our Consolidated Hotels, we owned 50% of the real estate interests in each of two hotels (we accounted for the ownership in our real estate interests of these hotels by the equity method) and majority real estate interests in each of the remaining 45 hotels (we consolidate our real estate interest in these hotels).
	The following table illustrates the distribution of our 47 Consolidated Hotels at September 30, 2014:
	Brand	Hotels	Rooms
	Embassy Suites Hotels®	24	6,480
	Wyndham® and Wyndham Grand®	8	2,528
	Sheraton® and Westin®	3	1,209
	Marriott® and Renaissance®	3	1,321
	Holiday Inn®	3	1,256
	DoubleTree by Hilton® and Hilton®	3	802
	Fairmont®	1	383
	Morgans and Royalton	2	285
	Total	47	14,264
	At September 30, 2014, our Consolidated Hotels were located in 17 states, with concentrations in California (11 hotels), Florida (seven hotels) and Texas (seven hotels). Approximately 52% of our revenue was generated from hotels in these three states during the first nine months of 2014.
	At September 30, 2014, of our 47 Consolidated Hotels: (i) subsidiaries of Hilton Hotels Corporation, or Hilton, managed 26 hotels, (ii) subsidiaries of Wyndham Hotel Group, or Wyndham, managed eight hotels, (iii) subsidiaries of Starwood Hotels & Resorts Worldwide Inc., or Starwood, managed three hotels, (iv) subsidiaries of Marriott International Inc., or Marriott, managed three hotels, (v) subsidiaries of InterContinental Hotels Group, or IHG, managed three hotels, (vi) a subsidiary of Fairmont Hotels and Resorts, or Fairmont, managed one hotel, (vii) a subsidiary of Morgans Hotel Group Corporation managed two hotels, and (viii) an independent management company managed one hotel.
	1.    Organization — (continued)
	In addition to the above hotels, we own a 95% interest in a consolidated joint venture that owns the Knickerbocker Hotel, a former hotel and office building that is being redeveloped as a 4+ star hotel in midtown Manhattan. We expect to open the Knickerbocker in February.
	The information in our consolidated financial statements for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013 is unaudited. Preparing financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, or GAAP, requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The accompanying financial statements for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, include adjustments based on management’s estimates (consisting of normal and recurring accruals), which we consider necessary for a fair statement of the results for the periods. The financial information should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2013, included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K. Operating results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014 are not necessarily indicative of actual operating results for the entire year.

Joint Venture Transaction [Abstract]	'
Joint Venture Transaction	'
	Joint Venture Transaction
	In July 2014, we unwound unconsolidated joint ventures in which we held 50% interests that collectively owned 10 hotels. As a consequence, we now own 100% of five of those hotels and none of the other five hotels. We also now own 100% of an additional hotel of which we owned 90% prior to the unwinding of the joint ventures. We paid $2.2 million to our joint venture partner to equalize the aggregate value of assets each party received as the joint ventures were unwound. This payment was the net of $5.9 million paid for our partner’s 10% interest in the one hotel and $3.7 million received for the difference in values of the five hotels now wholly-owned by us compared to the five hotels in which we no longer have any ownership.
	Our joint ventures had an outstanding loan that was secured by eight of these hotels and was bifurcated when the joint ventures were unwound. That loan bears interest at one-month LIBOR plus 3%, matures in March 2017 and is freely pre-payable in whole or in part. We are now only liable for our $64 million share of the bifurcated non-recourse loan, which is secured by mortgages on four of the former joint venture hotels that we now wholly-own.
	As a result of these transactions, we have recorded the following in the third quarter:
	•	A $20.7 million gain on the remeasurement of the fair value of the five previously unconsolidated hotels, which we now control as wholly-owned by us;
	•	A $30.2 million gain on the disposition of our unconsolidated interests in the five other hotels (net of $457,000 in transaction costs);
	•	A $3.5 million decrease in Additional Paid-In Capital related to our acquisition of the 10% noncontrolling interest of another hotel, which is now wholly-owned by us.
	2.    Joint Venture Transaction — (continued)
	In addition to the foregoing, we increased our ownership interest in the operating entities of all six hotels in conjunction with unwinding the joint ventures. Prior to the transaction, we had 51% controlling interests in 10 of the hotel lessees that operated the joint ventures’ 10 hotels and a 90% controlling interest in the hotel lessee that operated the eleventh hotel. After unwinding the joint ventures, we no longer have any interest in five lessees and own 100% in the lessees of the six hotels we now own outright. When we unwound the joint ventures, we liquidated the lessees’ assets and liabilities to cash, which was then distributed to the partners based on their ownership interests just prior to unwinding the joint ventures. Consequently, we recorded no gains or losses when changing ownership of the lessees.
	The following table summarizes the fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed where we obtained control of a previously unconsolidated entity (i.e., a business combination) through this, primarily, non-cash transaction:
	Assets
	Investment in hotels	$	130,100
	Other assets	1,300
	Deferred expenses	259
	Total assets acquired	$	131,659
	Liabilities
	Debt	$	64,000
	Net assets acquired	$	67,659
	The value of the assets acquired was primarily based on a sales comparison approach (for land) and a depreciated replacement cost approach (for buildings).  The sales comparison approach used inputs of recent land sales in the respective hotel markets.  The depreciated replacement cost approach used inputs of both direct and indirect replacement costs using a nationally recognized authority on replacement cost information as well as the age and the square footage of the respective buildings.  The fair value of the debt was based on the estimated principal amount of debt having the same debt service requirements that could have been borrowed on the transaction date, at then current market interest rates.
	The non-cash transaction also resulted in a $19.9 million decrease in our investment in unconsolidated entities.
	The following unaudited consolidated pro forma results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013 assumes the joint venture transactions (the business combination, the disposition of unconsolidated interests, the acquisition of a 10% interest in one hotel, and the change in lessee ownership percentages) occurred on January 1, 2013. The unaudited consolidated pro forma results of operations are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations if the transactions had been completed on the assumed date.

	Investment in Unconsolidated Entities
	At September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, we owned 50% interests in joint ventures that owned three hotels and 13 hotels, respectively. This decrease in hotels owned by our unconsolidated joint ventures reflects unwinding certain of our joint ventures in July 2014 as described in Note 2. We also own 50% interests in entities that own real estate in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina and provide condominium management services there. We account for our investments in these unconsolidated entities under the equity method. We do not have any majority-owned subsidiaries that are not consolidated in our financial statements. We make adjustments to our equity in income from unconsolidated entities related to the difference between our basis in investment in unconsolidated entities compared to the historical basis of the assets recorded by the joint ventures.

	Our unconsolidated entities’ debt at September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013 consisted entirely of non-recourse mortgage debt. In September, one of our other unconsolidated joint ventures refinanced its debt with a new $23.5 million loan maturing in October 2024.

	(a)	Our $225 million line of credit can be extended for one year (to 2017), subject to satisfying certain conditions.
	(b)	This debt is comprised of separate non-cross-collateralized loans each secured by a mortgage of a different hotel.
	(c)	In November 2012, we obtained an $85.0 million construction loan to finance the redevelopment of the Knickerbocker Hotel. This loan can be extended for one year subject to satisfying certain conditions. In 2014, we drew $44.6 million of the cash collateral to fund construction costs, leaving $20.3 million of cash collateral to be drawn before drawing on the remaining $20.1 million available under the construction loan.
	In January 2014, we repaid a $10.9 million secured loan, otherwise maturing in July 2014, when we sold a hotel. In March 2014, we repaid a $17.1 million loan, secured by a hotel, otherwise maturing in June 2014. We incurred $251,000 of debt extinguishment costs in connection with repaying these loans.
	In April 2014, we repaid a $15.6 million loan, secured by two hotels, otherwise maturing in July 2014. In May 2014, we repaid an additional $19.2 million loan, secured by a hotel, otherwise maturing in August 2014.
	In July 2014, we obtained a $140 million term loan secured by three hotels. The loan bears interest at LIBOR (no floor) plus 2.5%. The loan matures in 2017 (it may be extended for up to two years, subject to satisfying certain conditions) and is freely pre-payable. We will use proceeds from pending and future asset sales to repay this loan and borrowings under our line of credit.
	4.    Debt — (continued)
	In August 2014, we used proceeds from the July 2014 term loan, cash on hand and borrowings under our line of credit to repay the remaining $234 million of our 10% senior secured notes. These notes, which would have matured October 2014, were secured by 11 properties. We incurred $3.8 million of debt extinguishment costs in connection with repaying these notes. All cash paid to satisfy the extinguishment of the senior secured notes is classified as a financing activity in the statements of cash flows.
	In September 2014, we repaid a $9.6 million secured loan, otherwise maturing in July 2016, when we sold a hotel. We incurred $914,000 of debt extinguishment costs in connection with repaying this loan.
	We reported $21.9 million and $25.8 million of interest expense for the three months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively, which is net of: (i) interest income of $13,000 and $15,000 and (ii) capitalized interest of $4.1 million and $3.4 million, respectively. We reported $71.6 million and $78.5 million of interest expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively, which is net of: (i) interest income of $41,000 and $60,000 and (ii) capitalized interest of $12.4 million and $9.1 million, respectively.

	In March 2013, we rebranded and transitioned management at eight hotels located in strategic markets to Wyndham brands. Wyndham's parent guaranteed a minimum level of net operating income for each year of the initial 10-year term, subject to an aggregate $100 million limit over the term (of which we have received or accrued $8.5 million to date) and an annual $21.5 million limit. Amounts recorded under the guaranty are accounted for, to the extent available, as a reduction in contractual management and other fees paid and payable to Wyndham. Any amounts in excess of those fees will be recorded as revenue when earned. For the nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, we have recorded $524,000 and $5.2 million, respectively, pro rata portion of the projected full-year guaranty (of which $93,000 and $2.4 million is for the three months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively) as a reduction of Wyndham's contractual management and other fees.

	Impairment
	Our hotels are comprised of operations and cash flows that can clearly be distinguished, operationally and for financial reporting purposes, from the remainder of our operations. Accordingly, we consider each hotel to be a component for purposes of determining impairment charges.
	We may record impairment charges if operating results of individual hotels are materially different from our forecasts, the economy and/or lodging industry weakens, or we shorten our contemplated holding period for additional hotels. In the second quarter of 2013, we recorded a $27.7 million impairment charge.
	The impairment charge related in part to the one hotel included in discontinued operations ($3.3 million) and was based on third-party offers to purchase (a Level 2 input under authoritative guidance for fair value measurements) at prices below our previously estimated fair market values for this property. This hotel had been identified as a sale candidate in a prior year, reducing its estimated hold period at that time.
	A $24.4 million portion of the impairment charge related to two hotels identified as no longer meeting our investment criteria, thereby significantly reducing their respective estimated hold periods, resulting in impairments on both hotels. Impairment charges related to these two hotels was determined using Level 3 inputs, as follows:
	•	with respect to one hotel, we used a discounted cash flow analysis with an estimated stabilized growth rate of 3.0%, a discounted cash flow term of five years, a terminal capitalization rate of 8.0%, and a discount rate of 10.0%; and
	•	with respect to the other hotel, we used information based on EBITDA multiples ranging from 10x to 12x.

	Hotel Dispositions
	Effective January 1, 2014, we adopted the provisions of Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-08 (the Update), under which the disposal of components of an entity are reported as discontinued operations only if the disposal represents a strategic shift that has (or will have) a major effect on an entity’s operations and financial results. These new provisions are applied prospectively only, and, as such, hotels that were considered discontinued operations for the year ended December 31, 2013 and prior continue to be reported as discontinued operations in all periods presented.
	During the nine months ended September 30, 2014, we sold six hotels, one of which was previously held for sale at December 31, 2013, and disposed of five unconsolidated hotels when we unwound our joint ventures as discussed in Note 2. As of September 30, 2014, we had two hotels held for sale, both of which have subsequently sold. We designate a hotel as held for sale when the sale is probable within the next twelve months. We consider a sale to be probable when a buyer completes its due diligence review, we have an executed contract for sale, and we have received a substantial non-refundable deposit. We included operations for 12 of the hotels (five hotels sold not previously held for sale, five hotels disposed when we unwound certain joint ventures, and two hotels held for sale as of September 30, 2014) in income (loss) from continuing operations as shown in the statements of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, as disposition of these hotels does not represent a strategic shift in our business.

	We grant our executive officers restricted stock units each year, which provides them with the potential to earn shares of our common stock in three increments over four years. The actual number of shares that vest is determined based on total stockholder return relative to a group of 10 lodging REIT peers. We amortize the fixed cost of these grants over the vesting period. We calculate the potential dilutive impact of these awards on our earnings per share using the treasury stock method.

	Fair Value of Financial Instruments
	Disclosures about fair value of our financial instruments are based on pertinent information available to management as of September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013. Considerable judgment is necessary to interpret market data and develop estimated fair value. Accordingly, the estimates presented herein are not necessarily indicative of the amounts that we could realize on disposition of the financial instruments. Different market assumptions and/or estimation methodologies may have a material effect on estimated fair value amounts.
	Our estimates of the fair value of (i) cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses approximate carrying value due to the relatively short maturity of these instruments; (ii) our publicly-traded debt is based on observable market data (a Level 2 input) and has an estimated fair value of $1.1 billion and $1.3 billion at September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively; and (iii) our debt that is not publicly-traded is based on a discounted cash flow model using effective borrowing rates for debt with similar terms, loan to estimated fair value of collateral and remaining maturities (a Level 3 input) and has an estimated fair value of $581.0 million and $390.1 million at September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively. The carrying value and the estimated fair value of all our debt was $1.6 billion and $1.7 billion at September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively.

	Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests in FelCor LP / Redeemable Units
	We record redeemable noncontrolling interests in FelCor LP, in the case of FelCor, and redeemable units, in the case of FelCor LP, in the mezzanine section (between liabilities and equity or partners’ capital) of our consolidated balance sheets because of the redemption feature of these units. Additionally, FelCor’s consolidated statements of operations separately present earnings attributable to redeemable noncontrolling interests. We adjust redeemable noncontrolling interests in FelCor LP (or redeemable units) each period to reflect the greater of its carrying value based on the accumulation of historical cost or its redemption value. The historical cost is based on the proportionate relationship between the carrying value of equity associated with FelCor’s common stockholders relative to that of FelCor LP’s unitholders. Redemption value is based on the closing price of FelCor’s common stock at period end. FelCor allocates net income (loss) to FelCor LP’s noncontrolling partners based on their weighted average ownership percentage during the period.
	11	Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests in FelCor LP / Redeemable Units — (continued)
	At September 30, 2014, we had 611,462 limited partnership units outstanding carried at $5.7 million. The value of these outstanding units is based on the closing price of FelCor’s common stock at September 30, 2014 ($9.36 per share).

	Consolidated Joint Venture Preferred Equity/Capital
	Our joint venture that is redeveloping the Knickerbocker Hotel raised $45 million through the sale of 3.5% preferred equity/capital under the EB-5 immigrant investor program. The purchasers receive a 3.25% current annual return, plus a 0.25% non-compounding annual return paid at redemption. Our joint venture may, at its option, redeem this equity interest. If it is not redeemed within five years, the current annual return increases to 8%. The venture received $42.0 million in gross proceeds ($41.4 million net of issuance costs) during the nine months ended September 30, 2014, and the remaining $3.0 million will be received as investors’ visas are approved. We used our 95% share of the proceeds to repay borrowings under our line of credit.

Contingency	'
	Contingency
	One of our consolidated subsidiaries is currently engaged in a commercial dispute with a third party that relates to circumstances that arose prior to September 30, 2014. Subsequent to September 30, 2014, we acquired additional information regarding this matter, and, under generally accepted accounting principles, we have recorded $5.9 million in other expenses during the three months ended September 30, 2014 to establish a provision for our current estimate of our maximum exposure for this contingency. However, we will continue asserting our rights under the contract. We believe these negotiations, when complete, will result in a substantial reduction of the liability. Because negotiations are ongoing, the outcome of those negotiations and the net amount for which our subsidiary will ultimately be liable are uncertain.

	Recently Issued Accounting Standards
	In May 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2014-09 Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) (“ASU 2014-09”). ASU 2014-09 is a comprehensive new revenue recognition model requiring a company to recognize revenue to depict the transfer of goods or services to a customer at an amount reflecting the consideration it expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services. In adopting ASU 2014-09, companies may use either a full retrospective or a modified retrospective approach. Additionally, this guidance requires improved disclosures regarding the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers. ASU 2014-09 is effective for the first interim period within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, and early adoption is not permitted. The Company is currently in the process of evaluating the impact the adoption of ASU 2014-09 will have on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards	'
	In May 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2014-09 Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) (“ASU 2014-09”). ASU 2014-09 is a comprehensive new revenue recognition model requiring a company to recognize revenue to depict the transfer of goods or services to a customer at an amount reflecting the consideration it expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services. In adopting ASU 2014-09, companies may use either a full retrospective or a modified retrospective approach. Additionally, this guidance requires improved disclosures regarding the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers. ASU 2014-09 is effective for the first interim period within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, and early adoption is not permitted. The Company is currently in the process of evaluating the impact the adoption of ASU 2014-09 will have on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.
