Item 7.01. Regulation FD Disclosure.

Pebblebrook Hotel Trust (the “Company”) issued a press release on October 25, 2012 announcing that it has acquired the 196-room Hotel Palomar located in San Francisco, California. A copy of that press release is furnished as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.
A copy of materials about this property that the Company intends to distribute is furnished as Exhibit 99.2 to this Current Report on Form 8-K. Additionally, the Company has posted those materials in the investor relations section of its website at www.pebblebrookhotels.com.
Item 8.01. Other Events.

On October 25, 2012, a subsidiary of the Company completed its acquisition of a leasehold interest in the 196-room Hotel Palomar located in San Francisco, California (the “Hotel”) for $58.0 million from a group of unaffiliated third parties. The purchase price includes the assumption of a $27.2 million first mortgage loan on the Hotel, which bears a fixed interest rate of 5.94% per annum, with monthly payments of principal and interest through August 2017, and the balance due on September 1, 2017. The cash portion of the purchase price for the Hotel was funded entirely with available cash.
The subsidiary assumed the lease for the Hotel (the “Hotel Lease”) with Jamestown Premier Pacific Place, L.P., an unaffiliated third party, as landlord. Pursuant to the Hotel Lease, which expires on June 30, 2097, the subsidiary is required to pay an annual fixed rent (base rent plus basement rent) (collectively, the “Fixed Rent”) and percentage rent based on food and beverage revenues of the Hotel (“F&B Revenues”), ranging from 0% to 12% of F&B Revenues depending on the amount of such revenue, and gross revenues of the Hotel, excluding parking and food and beverage revenues (“Gross Revenues”), ranging from 12% to 18% of Gross Revenues depending on the amount of such revenue. The Fixed Rent, approximately $1.6 million for 2012, will increase annually by the percentage change in the consumer price index (“CPI”), but in no event by less than 2% or more than 4%. The percentage rent is the sum of the applicable revenues multiplied by the applicable percentages minus the Fixed Rent.
The Hotel will continue to be managed by Kimpton Hotel & Restaurant Group, LLC, the Hotel's current manager.
