Exhibit 99.1

DEAR SHAREHOLDER

Apple Hospitality Two, Inc. enjoyed a successful third quarter which continues to reflect the benefit of our ownership in the Residence Inn® by Marriott® and Homewood Suites® by Hilton® upscale extended-stay hotel brands. Strategically located within 25 states, our 64 extended-stay hotels have increased revenue by 14 percent over the last two years.

I am pleased to report that operating results for the third quarter 2006 are ahead of last year’s third quarter results. During the three-month period ending September 30, 2006, our continuing properties reported revenue per available room (RevPAR) of $89 compared to a RevPAR of $83 for the same period in 2005. Our average nightly occupancy for the third quarter of this year was 80 percent and average daily rate (ADR) was $111, relative to 82 percent occupancy and an ADR of $102 for the third quarter 2005.

Our growth allowed us to raise the annual dividend to 8.5 percent, based on a $10 share price. Since 2001, we have paid out more than $170 million in dividends to our shareholders, which equates to more than $5.50 per share. I am also pleased to report that funds from operations (FFO) for the third quarter of 2006 were $16.4 million, or $0.39 per share, an increase of $.06 from the same period in 2005. As of September 30, 2006, year-to-date FFO reached $45.6 million, or $1.09 per share, which surpassed last year’s results of $0.90 per share.

Furthermore, we are pleased to announce our Las Vegas Residence Inn® by Marriott® is currently under contract to sell for $65 million. The potential buyer is currently completing their due diligence process and once that is complete, we anticipate a close date by March of 2007. Given the current book value of $12.2 million, we feel that this is an exceptional opportunity to capitalize on the growth in that market and further strengthen the value of your investment. As we continue to evaluate strategic alternatives for the remainder of the portfolio, we expect the hotel industry to remain strong.

With the end of 2006 fast approaching, every indication points to another successful year in 2007. Our next formal correspondence will be our 2006 Annual Report, which will include detailed information regarding the performance of our properties throughout the year. Until then, enjoy the season and as always, thank you for your investment!

 

Sincerely,

(a) Modified funds from operations (FFO) is defined as net income (computed in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles – GAAP) excluding gains and losses from sales of depreciable property, plus depreciation and amortization, plus transition advisory fees. The company considers modified FFO in evaluating property acquisitions and its operating performance and believes that modified FFO should be considered along with, but not as an alternative to, net income and cash flows as a measure of the company’s activities in accordance with GAAP. Modified FFO is not necessarily indicative of cash available to fund cash needs.

The financial information furnished reflects all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of financial position at September 30, 2006, and the results of operations for the interim period ended September 30, 2006. Such interim results are not necessarily indicative of the results that can be expected for the full year.
