        Certain forward-looking statements are included in the prospectus and this supplement. These forward-looking statements may involve our plans and objectives for future operations, including future growth and availability of funds. These forward-looking statements are based on current expectations, which are subject to numerous risks and uncertainties. Assumptions relating to these statements involve judgments with respect to, among other things, the continuation of our offering of Units, future economic, competitive and market conditions and future business decisions, together with local, national and international events (including, without limitation, acts of terrorism or war, and their direct and indirect effects on travel and the economy). All of these matters are difficult or impossible to predict accurately and many of them are beyond our control. Although we believe the assumptions relating to the forward-looking statements, and the statements themselves, are reasonable, any of the assumptions could be inaccurate and, therefore, there can be no assurance that these forward-looking statements will prove to be accurate. In light of the significant uncertainties inherent in these forward-looking statements, the inclusion of this information should not be regarded as a representation by us or any other person that our objectives and plans, which we consider to be reasonable, will be achieved.

STATUS OF THE OFFERING

        We completed the minimum offering of Units (with each Unit consisting of one Common Share and one Series A Preferred Share) at $10.50 per Unit on May 14, 2008. We are continuing the offering at $11 per Unit in accordance with the prospectus. We registered to sell a total of 182,251,082 Units. As of March 31, 2010, 67,029,405 Units remained unsold. Our offering of Units expires on April 25, 2011, provided that the offering will be terminated if all of the Units are sold before then.

        As of March 31, 2010, we had closed on the following sales of Units in the offering:

        Our distributions since the initial capitalization through December 31, 2009 totaled approximately $70.3 million of which approximately $44.2 million was used to purchase additional Units under the Company's best-efforts offering. Thus the net cash distributions were $26.1 million. Our distributions were paid at a monthly rate of $0.073334 per common share beginning in June 2008. For the same period our net cash generated from operations, from our Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows, was approximately $32.5 million, which exceeded the net cash distributions.

See complete consolidated statement of cash flows for the twelve months ended December 31, 2009 included in our audited financial statements in our most recent Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009, incorporated by reference herein. See "Incorporation by Reference" on page S-5 of this Supplement.

        During the initial phase of our operations, we may, due to the inherent delay between raising capital and investing that same capital in income producing real estate, have a portion of our distributions funded from offering proceeds. Our objective in setting a distribution rate is to project a rate that will provide consistency over the life of the Company, taking into account acquisitions and capital improvements, ramp up of new properties and varying economic cycles. We anticipate that we may need to utilize debt, offering proceeds and cash from operations to meet this objective. We evaluate the distribution rate on an ongoing basis and may make changes at any time if we feel the rate is not appropriate based on available cash resources. In May 2008, our Board of Directors established a policy for an annualized dividend rate of $0.88 per common share, payable in monthly distributions. Since there can be no assurance of our ability to acquire properties that provide income at this level, or

S-3


Table of Contents


that the properties already acquired will provide income at this level, there can be no assurance as to the classification or duration of distributions at the current rate.

        For the year ended December 31, 2009, as stated in Note 1 to our consolidated financial statements for that period, 53% of distributions made to investors represented a return of capital and the remaining 47% represented ordinary income. Proceeds of the offering which are distributed are not available for investment in properties. See "Risk Factors"—"We may be unable to make distributions to our shareholders," on page 28 of the prospectus, and "Our distributions to our shareholders may not be sourced from operating cash flow but instead from offering proceeds or indebtedness, which (to the extent it occurs) will decrease our distributions in the future," on page 16 of the prospectus.

        For the year ended December 31, 2009, we received requests to redeem approximately 252,000 Units pursuant to our Unit Redemption Program for a total of $2.6 million. Through our last scheduled quarterly redemption date in 2009, October 20, 2009, we redeemed 100% of the redemption requests for the year ended December 31, 2009 at an average per Unit redemption price of $10.32. We funded Unit redemptions for the periods noted above from the proceeds of dividends used to purchase additional Units under the Company's best efforts offering of Units.

Extension of Best-Efforts Offering

        On April 15, 2010, our Board of Directors unanimously approved a resolution extending our offering of Units until April 25, 2011. Our best-efforts offering will continue until all of the Units offered under this prospectus have been sold or until April 25, 2011.

Notes for Table:

(a)
The indicated hotels are currently under construction. The table shows the expected number of rooms upon hotel completion and the expected franchise.

(b)
If the seller meets all of the conditions to closing, we are obligated to specifically perform under the purchase contract. As the properties are under construction at this time, the seller has not met all conditions to closing.

(c)
Sellers of properties are affiliated with each other, but not the Company.

(d)
Purchase contract for these hotels requires the assumption of loans secured by the hotels. Total outstanding principal is approximately $49.5 million. The loans have current interest rates varying from 2.0%—5.5% maturity dates from November 2011 to October 2015, and require monthly payments of principal and interest on an amortized basis.

        In general, each purchase contract listed above required a deposit upon (or shortly after) execution. An additional deposit is typically due upon the expiration of the contract review period. Additionally, for the Santa Ana Courtyard, upon the issuance of the building permit by the City of Santa Ana, the Company will be required to fund an additional deposit of $6 million. If a closing occurs under a purchase contract, the initial and additional deposits are credited toward the purchase price. If a closing does not occur because the seller fails to satisfy a condition to closing or breaches the purchase contract, the applicable deposits would be refunded to us. The total of both the initial and additional deposits for the purchase contracts listed above is $9.0 million.

        For each purchase contract listed above, there are material conditions to closing that presently remain unsatisfied. Accordingly, there can be no assurance at this time that a closing will occur under any of these purchase contracts.

        On October 14, 2009, through one of our indirect wholly-owned subsidiaries, we entered into a ground lease for approximately one acre of land located in downtown Richmond, Virginia. The lease terminates on December 31, 2098, subject to our right to exercise two renewal periods of ten years

each. We intend to use the land to build two nationally recognized brand hotels. Under the terms of the lease we have a "Study Period" to determine the viability of the hotels. We can terminate the lease for any reason during the Study Period, which originally ended on April 14, 2010. The Study Period was extended for six months to October 14, 2010, in April 2010. After the Study Period, the lease continues to be subject to various conditions, including but not limited to obtaining various permits, licenses, zoning variances and franchise approvals. If any of these conditions are not met we have the right to terminate the lease at any time. Rent payments are not required until we decide to begin construction on the hotels. Annual rent under the lease is $300,000 with adjustments throughout the lease term based on the Consumer Price Index. As there are many conditions to beginning construction on the hotels, there are no assurances that we will construct the hotels or continue the lease.

Recent Terminations

        In December 2009 the Company terminated two purchase contracts for hotels in Hillsboro, Oregon. The contracts were initially entered into in October 2008. The seller was not able to begin construction of the hotels, and as a result the contracts were terminated by the Company and the initial aggregate deposit of $200,000 was returned to the Company.

S-12


Table of Contents

        We have no material relationship or affiliation with the hotel sellers or managers, except for the relationship resulting from our purchases, our management agreements for the hotels we own and any related documents.

Hotel Lease Agreements

        Each of our recently purchased hotels is covered by a separate hotel lease agreement between the owner (one of our indirect wholly-owned subsidiaries) and the applicable lessee (another one of our indirect wholly-owned subsidiaries, as specified in a previous section). Each lease provides for an initial term of 10 years. The applicable lessee has the option to extend its lease term for two additional five-year periods, provided it is not in default at the end of the prior term or at the time the option is exercised.

        Each lease provides for annual base rent and percentage rent. The annual base rent is payable in advance in equal monthly installments and will be adjusted each year in proportion to the Consumer Price Index (based on the U.S. City Average). Shown below are the annual base rent and the lease commencement date for the hotels we have purchased since our prospectus dated September 21, 2009:

        The annual percentage rent depends on a formula that compares fixed "suite revenue breakpoints" with a portion of "suite revenue," which is equal to gross revenue from guest rentals less sales and room taxes and credit card fees. The suite revenue breakpoints will be adjusted each year in proportion to the Consumer Price Index (based on the U.S. City Average). Specifically, the annual percentage rent is equal to the sum of (a) 17% of all suite revenue for the year, up to the applicable suite revenue breakpoint; plus (b) 55% of the suite revenue for the year in excess of the applicable suite revenue breakpoint, as reduced by base rent paid for the year.

Management Agreements

        Each of our hotels is being managed by the manager under a separate management agreement between the manager and the applicable lessee (which is one of our indirect wholly-owned subsidiaries, as specified in the previous section). The manager is responsible for managing and supervising the daily operations of the hotel and for collecting revenues for the benefit of the applicable lessee. The fees and other terms of these agreements are the result of commercial negotiations between otherwise unrelated parties. We believe that such fees and terms are appropriate for the hotels and the markets in which they operate.

S-13


Table of Contents

Franchise Agreements

        In general, for our hotels franchised by Marriott International, Inc. or one of its affiliates, there is a relicensing franchise agreement between the applicable lessee (as specified in a previous section) and Marriott International, Inc. or an affiliate. Each relicensing franchise agreement provides for the payment of royalty fees and marketing contributions to the franchisor. A percentage of gross room revenues is used to determine these payments. In addition, we have caused Apple Nine Hospitality, Inc. or another one of our subsidiaries to provide a separate guaranty of the payment and performance of the applicable lessee under the relicensing franchise agreement.

        For the hotels franchised by Hilton Worldwide or one of its affiliates, there is a franchise license agreement between the applicable lessee and Hilton Worldwide or an affiliate. Each franchise license agreement provides for the payment of royalty fees and program fees to the franchisor. A percentage of gross room revenues is used to determine these payments. Apple Nine Hospitality, Inc. or another one of our subsidiaries has guaranteed the payment and performance of the lessee under the applicable franchise license agreement.

        The fees and other terms of these agreements are the result of commercial negotiations between otherwise unrelated parties, and we believe that such fees and terms are appropriate for the hotels and the markets in which they operate. These agreements may be terminated for various reasons, including failure by the applicable lessee to operate in accordance with the standards, procedures and requirements established by the franchisors.


FINANCIAL AND OPERATING INFORMATION
FOR OUR PURCHASED
PROPERTIES

        Our hotels offer guest rooms and suites, together with related amenities, that are consistent with their operations. The hotels are located in developed or developing areas and in competitive markets. We believe the hotels are well-positioned to compete in their markets based on location, amenities, rate structure and franchise affiliation. In the opinion of management, each hotel is adequately covered by insurance. The following tables present further information about the hotels we have purchased:

Corporate Governance

Board of Directors

        The Company's Board of Directors has determined that all of the Company's directors, except Mr. Knight, are "independent" within the meaning of the rules of the New York Stock Exchange (which the Company, although not listed on a national exchange, has adopted for purposes of determining such independence). In making this determination, the Board considered all relationships between the director and the Company, including commercial, industrial, banking, consulting, legal, accounting, charitable and familial relationships.

        The Board has adopted a categorical standard that a director is not independent (a) if he or she receives any personal financial benefit from, on account of or in connection with a relationship between the Company and the director (excluding directors fees and options), (b) if he or she is a partner, officer, employee or managing member of an entity that has a business or professional relationship with, and that receives compensation from, the Company, or (c) if he or she is a non-managing member or shareholder of such an entity and owns 10% or more of the membership interests or common stock of that entity. The Board may determine that a director with a business or other relationship that does not fit within the categorical standard described in the immediately preceding sentence is nonetheless independent, but in that event, the Board is required to disclose the basis for its determination in the Company's then current annual proxy statement. In addition, the Board has voluntarily adopted, based on rules of the New York Stock Exchange, certain conditions that prevent a director from being considered independent while the condition lasts and then for three years thereafter.

Compensation of Directors

        During 2009, the directors of the Company were compensated as follows:

        All Directors in 2009.     All directors were reimbursed by the Company for travel and other out-of-pocket expenses incurred by them to attend meetings of the directors or a committee and in conducting the business of the Company.

        Independent Directors in 2009.     The independent directors (classified by the Company as all directors other than Mr. Knight) received annual directors' fees of $15,000, plus $1,000 for each meeting of the Board attended and $1,000 for each committee meeting attended. Additionally, the Chair of the Audit Committee receives an additional fee of $2,500 per year and the Chair of the Compensation Committee receives an additional fee of $1,500 per year. Under the Company's Non-Employee Directors' Stock Option Plan, each non-employee director received options to purchase 12,466 Units, exercisable at $11 per Unit.

        Non-Independent Director in 2009.     Mr. Knight received no compensation from the Company for his services as a director.

Stock Option Grants in Last Fiscal Year

        In 2008, the Company adopted a Non-Employee Directors' Stock Option Plan (the "Directors' Plan"). The Directors' Plan provides for automatic grants of options to acquire Units. The Directors' Plan applies to directors of the Company who are not employees of the Company.

        Since adoption of the Directors' Plan, none of the participants have exercised any of their options to acquire Units. The following table shows the options to acquire Units that were granted under the Directors Plan in 2009:

Certain Relationships and Agreements

        The Company has significant transactions with related parties. These transactions may not have arms-length terms, and the results of the Company's operations might be different if these transactions had been conducted with unrelated parties. The Company's independent members of the Board of Directors oversee the existing related party relationships and are required to approve any material modifications to the existing contracts. At least one member of the Company's senior management team approves each related party transaction.

        The Company has contracted with Apple Suites Realty Group, Inc. ("ASRG") to provide brokerage services for the acquisition and disposition of real estate assets. ASRG is wholly-owned by Glade M. Knight, the Company's Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. In accordance with the contract, ASRG is paid a fee equal to 2% of the gross purchase or sales price (as applicable) of any acquisitions or dispositions of real estate investments, subject to certain conditions. Total amounts earned and paid to date through December 31, 2009 to ASRG for services under the terms of this contract were approximately $13.6 million. Amounts earned in 2009 were approximately $6.7 million.

        The Company also has contracted with Apple Nine Advisors, Inc. ("A9A"), a company wholly-owned by Glade M. Knight to advise the Company and provide day-to-day management services and due-diligence services on acquisitions. In accordance with the contract, the Company pays A9A a fee equal to 0.1% to 0.25% of the total equity contributions to the Company, in addition to certain reimbursable expenses. The aggregate amount paid by the Company to A9A in 2009 was approximately $2.4 million. This amount includes a fee of $.7 million and costs of $1.7 million which were reimbursed by A9A to Apple REIT Six, Inc. who provides the resources for these services.

Compensation Discussion and Analysis

General Philosophy

        The Company's executive compensation philosophy is to attract, motivate and retain a superior management team. The Company's compensation program rewards each senior manager for their contribution to the Company. In addition, the Company uses annual incentive benefits that are designed to be competitive with comparable employers and to align management's incentives with the interests of the Company and its shareholders.

        With the exception of the Company's Chief Executive Officer, the Company compensates its senior management through a mix of base salary and bonus designed to be competitive with comparable employers. The Company has not utilized stock based awards or long term compensation for senior management. The Company believes that a simplistic approach to compensation better matches the objectives of all stakeholders. Each member of the senior management team performs similar functions for Apple REIT Six, Inc. ("A6"), Apple REIT Seven, Inc. ("A7"), Apple REIT Eight, Inc. ("A8"), ASRG, Apple Six Advisors, Inc. ("A6A"), Apple Seven Advisors, Inc. ("A7A"), Apple Eight Advisors, Inc. ("A8A") and Apple Nine Advisors, Inc. ("A9A"). As a result each senior manager's total compensation paid by the Company is proportionate to the estimated amount of time devoted to activities associated with the Company. The Chief Executive Officer is Chairman of the Board of Directors, Chief Executive Officer and majority shareholder of ASRG, A6A, A7A, A8A and A9A, each of which has various agreements with the Company and A6, A7 and A8. During 2009, ASRG, A6A, A7A, A8A and A9A received fees of approximately $11.0 million from A6, A7, A8 and A9. The Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors considers these agreements when developing the Chief Executive Officer's compensation. As a result, the Company's Chief Executive Officer has historically been compensated a minimal amount by the Company. Annually, the Chairman of the Board of Directors develops the compensation targets of senior management (as well as goals and objectives) with input from other members of senior management and reviews these items with the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors.

Base and Incentive Salaries

        The process of establishing each senior manager's compensation involves establishing an overall targeted amount and allocating that total between base and incentive compensation. The overall target is developed using comparisons to compensation paid by other public hospitality REITs, and consideration of each individual's experience in their position and the industry, the risks and deterrents associated with their position and the anticipated difficulty to replace the individual. It is the

S-22


Table of Contents


Company's intention to set this overall target sufficiently high to attract and retain a strong and motivated leadership team, but not so high that it creates a negative perception with our other stakeholders. Once the overall target is established, approximately 75% of that number is allocated to base salary and the remaining 25% is allocated to incentive compensation. The incentive compensation is then allocated 50% to Company overall performance (typically Funds From Operations (FFO) targets) and 50% to each individual's subjective performance objectives.

Perquisites and Other Benefits

        Senior management may participate in the Company's other benefit plans on the same terms as other employees. These plans include medical and dental insurance, life insurance and 401K plan. As noted in the Summary Compensation Table below, the Company provides limited perquisites to its senior managers.

EXPERIENCE OF PRIOR PROGRAMS

        The tables following this introduction set forth information with respect to certain of the prior real estate programs sponsored by Glade M. Knight, who is sometimes referred to as the "prior program sponsor." These tables provide information for use in evaluating the programs, the results of the operations of the programs, and compensation paid by the programs. Information in the tables is current as of December 31, 2009. The tables are furnished solely to provide prospective investors with information concerning the past performance of entities formed by Glade M. Knight. Regulatory filings and annual reports of Cornerstone, Apple REIT Eight, Apple REIT Seven, Apple REIT Six, Apple Hospitality Five and Apple Hospitality Two will be provided upon request for no cost (except for exhibits, for which there is a minimal charge). In addition, Table VI of this Supplement contains detailed information on the property acquisitions of Apple REIT Six, Apple REIT Seven and Apple REIT Eight and is available without charge upon request of any investor or prospective investor. Please send all requests to Apple REIT Nine, Inc., 814 East Main Street, Richmond, VA 23219, Attn: Kelly Clarke; telephone: 804-344-8121.

        In the five years ending December 31, 2009, Glade M. Knight sponsored only Cornerstone, Apple Hospitality Two, Apple Hospitality Five, Apple REIT Six, Apple REIT Seven and Apple REIT Eight, which have investment objectives similar to ours. Cornerstone, Apple Hospitality Two, Apple Hospitality Five, Apple REIT Six, Apple REIT Seven and Apple REIT Eight were formed to invest in existing residential rental properties and/or extended-stay and select-service hotels and possibly other properties for the purpose of providing regular monthly or quarterly distributions to shareholders and the possibility of long-term appreciation in the value of properties and shares.

        On May 23, 2007, Apple Hospitality Two merged with and into an affiliate managed by ING Clarion Partners, LLC.
