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 41 hotels as of September 30, 2015 . At September 30, 2015 , we had an aggregate of 143,993,871 shares and units outstanding, consisting of 143,382,409 shares of FelCor common stock and 611,462 FelCor LP units not owned by FelCor. Of our 41 hotels as of September 30, 2015 , we owned 100% interests in 38 hotels, a 95% interest in one hotel (The Knickerbocker) and 50% interests in entities owning two hotels. The Knickerbocker opened in February 2015, and based on its partial completion as of September 30, 2015, we have transferred $284.8 million of the development into investment in hotels, with the remaining investment ( $48.7 million ) classified as hotel development. We consolidate our real estate interests in the 39 hotels in which we hold majority interests, and we record the real estate interests of the two hotels in which we hold indirect 50% interests using the equity method. We lease 40 of the 41 hotels to our taxable REIT subsidiaries, of which we own a controlling interest. We operate one 50% -owned hotel without a lease. Because we own controlling interests in our operating lessees, we consolidate our interests in all 40 leased hotels (which we refer to as our Consolidated Hotels) and reflect their operating revenues and expenses in our statements of operations. We own 50% of the real estate interest in one Consolidated Hotel (we account for our real estate interest of this hotel by the equity method) and majority real estate interests in our remaining 39 Consolidated Hotels (we consolidate our real estate interests in these hotels). The following table illustrates the distribution of our 40 Consolidated Hotels at September 30, 2015 : Brand Hotels Rooms Embassy Suites Hotels ® 18 4,982 Wyndham ® and Wyndham Grand ® 8 2,528 Marriott ® and Renaissance ® 3 1,321 Holiday Inn ® 2 968 DoubleTree by Hilton ® and Hilton ® 3 802 Sheraton ® 2 673 Fairmont ® 1 383 The Knickerbocker ® 1 330 Morgans ® and Royalton ® 2 285 Total 40 12,272 At September 30, 2015 , our Consolidated Hotels were located in 15 states, with concentrations in California ( 11 hotels), Florida ( six hotels) and Massachusetts ( three hotels). Approximately 60% of our revenue was generated from hotels in these three states during the first nine months of 2015 . At September 30, 2015 , of our Consolidated Hotels: (i) subsidiaries of Hilton Worldwide, or Hilton, managed 20 hotels; (ii) subsidiaries of Wyndham Worldwide, or Wyndham, managed eight hotels; (iii) subsidiaries of Marriott International Inc., or Marriott, managed three hotels; (iv) subsidiaries of InterContinental Hotels Group, or IHG, managed two hotels; (v) subsidiaries of Starwood Hotels & 1. Organization — (continued) Resorts Worldwide Inc., or Starwood, managed two hotels; (vi) a subsidiary of Fairmont Raffles Hotels International, or Fairmont, managed one hotel; (vii) a subsidiary of Highgate Hotels, or Highgate, managed one hotel; (viii) a subsidiary of Morgans Hotel Group Corporation, or Morgans, managed two hotels; and (ix) Aimbridge Hospitality managed one hotel. The information in our consolidated financial statements for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 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, 2015 and 2014 , 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. Income taxes in prior periods have been reclassified from taxes, insurance and lease expense to conform to the current period presentation of a single line for income tax expense on our consolidated statement of operations. The financial information should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2014 , included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K. Operating results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 are not necessarily indicative of actual operating results for the entire year.

Joint Venture Transaction

Joint Venture Transaction	9 Months Ended
	Sep. 30, 2015
Business Combinations [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 of that transaction, we owned 100% of five of those hotels and none of the other five hotels. We also obtained 100% ownership 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 wholly-owned by us compared to the five hotels in which we no longer had any ownership subsequent to the transaction. As a result of these transactions, we recorded the following in the third quarter of 2014: • A $20.7 million gain on the remeasurement of the fair value of the five previously unconsolidated hotels, which we controlled and wholly-owned following the transaction; • 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 we wholly-owned following the transaction. 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% 2. Joint Venture Transaction — (continued) controlling interest in the hotel lessee that operated the eleventh hotel. After unwinding the joint ventures, we no longer had any interest in five lessees and owned 100% in the lessees of the six hotels we owned outright following the transaction. 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 [Abstract]
Investment in Unconsolidated Entities	Investment in Unconsolidated Entities At September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 , we owned 50% interests in joint ventures that owned two and three hotels, respectively. 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 consolidate all of our majority-owned subsidiaries 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. The following table summarizes combined balance sheet information for our unconsolidated entities (in thousands): September 30, December 31, 2015 2014 Investment in hotels and other properties, net of accumulated depreciation $ 21,684 $ 30,288 Total assets $ 32,510 $ 45,374 Debt $ 22,994 $ 34,192 Total liabilities $ 25,486 $ 36,974 Equity $ 7,024 $ 8,400 Our unconsolidated entities’ debt at September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 consisted entirely of non-recourse mortgage debt. In May 2015, one of our joint ventures sold a hotel, resulting in a $7.1 million gain that we include in our equity in income from unconsolidated entities. In connection with selling this hotel, the joint venture repaid the outstanding $10.5 million mortgage loan encumbering this hotel.

(b) Our line of credit can be extended for one year (to 2020), subject to satisfying certain conditions. (c) This construction loan (total capacity of $85.0 million ) finances the redevelopment of The Knickerbocker and can be extended for one year, subject to satisfying certain conditions. In February 2015, we sold a hotel and repaid $13.0 million in mortgage debt secured by that hotel that would have otherwise matured in March 2017. In May 2015, we issued $475 million aggregate principal amount of our 6.00% unsecured senior notes due 2025. We used the proceeds from that issuance, together with cash on hand and funds drawn under our line of credit, to repurchase and redeem $525 million in aggregate principal amount of our 6.75% senior secured notes due 2019, which was secured by mortgages on six hotels. We incurred $28.4 million of debt extinguishment charges relating to prepayment premiums and the write-off of deferred loan costs in connection with this transaction. 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 June 2015, we amended and restated our secured line of credit facility primarily to expand our borrowing capacity from $225 million to $400 million . The amended facility now matures in June 2020 (extended from June 2017), assuming we exercise a one-year extension option that is subject to certain conditions. Borrowings under the facility bear interest at LIBOR (no floor) plus an applicable margin ranging from 225 to 275 basis points (reduced from 337.5 basis points), depending on our leverage. The facility is secured by mortgages on seven hotels and permits partial release and substitution of properties, subject to certain conditions. We incurred $164,000 of debt extinguishment charges (relating to writing-off deferred loan costs) when amending the facility. We concurrently repaid a $140 million term loan that otherwise matured in 2017, bore interest at LIBOR plus 250 basis points and was secured by mortgages on three hotels, including one hotel that is part of the security for the amended facility. We incurred $2.0 million of debt extinguishment charges relating to writing-off deferred loan costs for the repaid loan. 4. Debt — (continued) In June 2015, when we sold two hotels, we repaid a $49.1 million loan secured by mortgages on three hotels (including the two sold hotels), that would have otherwise matured in March 2017. We sold the remaining hotel that had been mortgaged to secure this loan in September 2015. We incurred $237,000 of debt extinguishment charges relating to writing-off deferred loan costs for the repaid loan. We reported $19.6 million and $21.9 million of interest expense for the three months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 , respectively, which is net of: (i) interest income of $6,000 and $13,000 and (ii) capitalized interest of $565,000 and $4.1 million , respectively. We reported $59.4 million and $71.6 million of interest expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 , respectively, which is net of: (i) interest income of $18,000 and $41,000 and (ii) capitalized interest of $5.6 million and $12.4 million , respectively.

FelCor Capital Stock/FelCor LP Partners' Capital	FelCor Capital Stock/FelCor LP Partners’ Capital In April 2015, FelCor issued 18.4 million shares of its common stock at $11.25 per share in a public offering. FelCor contributed the net proceeds from the offering ( $199 million ) to FelCor LP in exchange for 18.4 million common units of limited partnership interests. In April 2015, FelCor called for redemption of all of its outstanding shares of 8% Series C Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock and all depositary shares representing the Series C Preferred Stock. FelCor redeemed those shares of Series C Preferred Stock and the depositary shares, and FelCor LP concurrently redeemed its Series C Preferred Units, on May 14, 2015 using proceeds from the equity offering. Including dividends of $491,000 , the total redemption price was $170.4 million . We reduced income available to common shareholders (unitholders) by $6.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 , primarily representing the original issuance costs ( $5.5 million ) and discount ( $538,000 ) of the redeemed Series C Preferred Stock (Units).

Impairment Charges

Impairment Charges	9 Months Ended
	Sep. 30, 2015
Property, Plant and Equipment [Abstract]
Impairment Charges	Impairment Charges 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 our hotels to be components for purposes of determining impairment charges. We test for impairment whenever changes in circumstances indicate a hotel’s carrying value may not be recoverable. We conduct the test using undiscounted cash flows for the shorter of the hotel’s estimated hold period or its remaining useful life. When testing for recoverability of hotels held for investment, we use projected cash flows over its expected hold period. Those hotels held for investment that fail the impairment test are written down to their then current estimated fair value, before any selling expense, and we continue to depreciate the hotels over their remaining useful lives. In the third quarter of 2015, we recorded a $20.9 million impairment charge related to a hotel that no longer meets our investment criteria, resulting in a reduced estimated hold period. The impairment charge was determined using Level 3 input under authoritative guidance for fair value measurements. For this estimate, we used a discounted cash flow analysis with an estimated stabilized growth rate of 3% , a discounted cash flow term of five years , a terminal capitalization rate of 8% , and a discount rate of 11% . As we do not consider a sale of this hotel to be probable within the next twelve months, the hotel is not considered to be held for sale at September 30, 2015. We may record additional impairment charges if operating results of individual hotels are materially different from our forecasts, the economy and lodging industry weakens, or we shorten our contemplated holding period for additional hotels.

Discontinued Operations and Disposal Groups [Abstract]
Hotel Dispositions	Hotel Dispositions Effective January 1, 2014, we adopted the provisions of Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-08, 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. We only apply these new provisions prospectively; consequently, we continue to report hotels that were considered discontinued operations for the year ended December 31, 2013 and prior years as discontinued operations in all periods presented. During the nine months ended September 30, 2015 , we sold eight hotels. In 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. We designate a hotel as held for sale when the sale is probable within the next twelve months. Excluding the hotel held for sale at December 31, 2013, we included operations for the sold hotels, and those hotels designated as held for sale, in income (loss) from continuing operations as shown in the statements of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 , as disposition of these hotels does not represent a strategic shift in our business. 9. Hotel Dispositions — (continued) The following table includes condensed financial information primarily related to 12 of 13 hotels sold in 2014 (the remaining hotel was held for sale as of December 31, 2013) and eight hotels sold during the nine months ended September 30, 2015 (in thousands): Three Months Ended Nine Months Ended September 30, September 30, 2015 2014 2015 2014 Hotel operating revenue $ 2,890 $ 32,952 $ 32,150 $ 135,918 Operating expenses (2,396 ) (30,633 ) (26,016 ) (130,856 ) Operating income 494 2,319 6,134 5,062 Interest expense, net — (575 ) (1,031 ) (1,854 ) Debt extinguishment — (914 ) (309 ) (932 ) Gain on sale of investment in unconsolidated entities, net — 30,184 — 30,184 Equity in income from unconsolidated entities 14 690 7,111 3,209 Income from continuing operations 508 31,704 11,905 35,669 Gain on sale of hotels, net (a) 3,154 29,556 19,491 50,639 Net income 3,662 61,260 31,396 86,308 Net loss (income) attributable to noncontrolling interests in other partnerships 45 (838 ) (5,146 ) (1,333 ) Net income attributable to redeemable noncontrolling interests in FelCor LP (16 ) (290 ) (110 ) (408 ) Net income attributable to FelCor $ 3,691 $ 60,132 $ 26,140 $ 84,567 (a) We recorded a $24.4 million gain from foreign currency translation (which we had previously recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income) when we sold our remaining Canadian hotel in the third quarter of 2014, which substantially liquidated all of our foreign investments.

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 ten lodging REIT peers.

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]
Fair Value of Financial Instruments	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, 2015 and December 31, 2014 . 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 debt for which trading prices are publicly available is based on observable market data (a Level 2 input) and has an estimated fair value of $1.0 billion and $1.1 billion at September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 , respectively; and (iii) our debt for which trading prices are not publicly available 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 $427.5 million and $548.2 million at September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 , respectively. The estimated fair value of all our debt was $1.4 billion and $1.6 billion at September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 , respectively. The carrying value of our debt was $1.4 billion and $1.6 billion at September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 , respectively.

Noncontrolling Interest [Abstract]
Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests in FelCor LP / Redeemable Units	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. 12. Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests in FelCor LP / Redeemable Units — (continued) At September 30, 2015 , we had 611,462 limited partnership units outstanding carried at $4.3 million . The value of these outstanding units is based on the closing price of FelCor’s common stock at September 30, 2015 ( $7.07 per share). Changes in redeemable noncontrolling interests (or redeemable units) for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 are shown below (in thousands): Nine Months Ended September 30, 2015 2014 Balance at beginning of period $ 6,616 $ 5,039 Conversion of units — (56 ) Redemption value allocation (2,076 ) 642 Distributions paid to unitholders (67 ) (36 ) Comprehensive income (loss): Foreign exchange translation — (1 ) Net income (loss) (150 ) 135 Balance at end of period $ 4,323 $ 5,723

Consolidated Joint Venture Preferred Equity/Capital	Consolidated Joint Venture Preferred Equity/Capital Our joint venture that is redeveloping The Knickerbocker raised $45 million through the sale of redeemable preferred equity under the EB-5 immigrant investor program. The purchasers receive a 3.25% current annual return (which increases to 8% if we do not redeem this equity interest before the fifth anniversary of its issuance), plus a 0.25% non-compounding annual return payable at redemption. The venture received $42.0 million in gross proceeds ( $41.4 million net of issuance costs) in 2014 and $1.8 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2015 . The venture will receive the remaining $1.2 million as investors’ visas are approved. We used our 95% share of the proceeds to repay borrowings under our line of credit (which were used to fund the redevelopment).

Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Recently Issued Accounting Standards	Recently Issued Accounting Standards In May 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. 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, 2017, and early adoption is permitted but not before the original effective date (for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016). We are evaluating what impact (if any) ASU 2014-09 will have on our financial position or results of operations. In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-03, Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs. Under ASU 2015-03, debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability will be presented on the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the debt liability, similar to the presentation of debt discounts. In August 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-15, Interest - Imputation of Interest (Subtopic 835-30) Presentation and Subsequent Measurement of Debt Issuance Costs Associated with Line-of-Credit Arrangements. This amendment provides additional guidance within ASU 2015-03 for debt issuance costs related to line of credit arrangements. These amendments are effective for the first interim period within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2015, and early adoption is permitted. We are evaluating what impact (if any) adopting this guidance will have on our financial position or results of operations.

Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Recently Issued Accounting Standards	In May 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. 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, 2017, and early adoption is permitted but not before the original effective date (for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016). We are evaluating what impact (if any) ASU 2014-09 will have on our financial position or results of operations. In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-03, Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs. Under ASU 2015-03, debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability will be presented on the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the debt liability, similar to the presentation of debt discounts. In August 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-15, Interest - Imputation of Interest (Subtopic 835-30) Presentation and Subsequent Measurement of Debt Issuance Costs Associated with Line-of-Credit Arrangements. This amendment provides additional guidance within ASU 2015-03 for debt issuance costs related to line of credit arrangements. These amendments are effective for the first interim period within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2015, and early adoption is permitted. We are evaluating what impact (if any) adopting this guidance will have on our financial position or results of operations.
