BELLEVUE, Wash. – Staypineapple Hotels Inc., a Pacific Northwest-based hospitality management and licensing company, most notably recognized for its management of the 10 Staypineapple hotels across the United States, announces that University Inn has been acquired by OneRE Apartment Fund LLC, a company affiliated with Onelin Capital Corporation, a U.S.-based multi-asset investment, real estate development and management firm.
The acquisition represents a strategic investment in one of Seattle’s most well-located boutique hotels, situated in the city’s University District with convenient access to the University of Washington, as well as a wide array of dining, retail and cultural amenities. As part of the transition, Staypineapple Hotels Inc. will manage the property under a licensing and management agreement.
University Inn has long been a preferred choice for visitors to the University of Washington and the surrounding neighborhood, offering easy access to the campus and key Seattle destinations. Built in 1962, the hotel became part of the Pineapple Hospitality portfolio in 2008 and was owned and operated as a Staypineapple property until the recent transition. With its classic mid-century design, 102 guest rooms, an outdoor seasonal pool and a dedicated parking lot, University Inn remains a unique boutique option for travelers seeking comfort and accessibility.
We’re proud to continue managing University Inn under this agreement with OneRE Apartment Fund. This partnership reflects the value of the Staypineapple brand in attracting guests. More now than ever, guests are looking for personalized and unique experiences when they travel. We look forward to working with OneRE to maintain the hotel’s legacy as we grow the brand.
