 EXHIBIT 10.1 

Execution Version 

SHARE REPURCHASE AGREEMENT 

THIS SHARE REPURCHASE AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is made and entered into as of March 1, 2017, by and among
Extended Stay America, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Corporation”), ESH Hospitality, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“ESH REIT” and, together with the Corporation, the
“Companies”), and each of the entities identified on Schedule 1 hereto that sells Secondary Shares (as defined below) in the Secondary Offering (as defined below) (each such entity, a
“Seller,” and collectively, the “Sellers”). 
 WHEREAS, the Sellers own shares of paired
common stock, each comprised of one share of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of the Corporation (the “Corporation Common Stock”) and one share of Class B common stock,
par value $0.01 per share, of ESH REIT (the “Class B Common Stock”), which are attached and trade together. These paired shares are collectively referred to
as the “Shares” in this Agreement; 
 WHEREAS, the Companies and the Sellers propose to enter into a transaction
(the “Repurchase Transaction”) whereby the Sellers shall sell to the Companies and the Companies shall purchase from the Sellers a number of Shares (the “Repurchase
Shares”) at the Per Share Purchase Price (as defined below) as shall be equal to the lesser of (i) 2.5% of the total number of Shares to be sold in the Secondary Offering (as defined below) and (ii) 1,000,000 Shares (rounded
down to the nearest whole Share), as set forth in this Agreement; 
 WHEREAS, the Corporation will purchase shares of Corporation Common
Stock (its portion of the Repurchase Shares) and pay its portion (the “Corporation Proportion”) of the Per Share Purchase Price, with such portion being determined by reference to the proportionate amount
of the aggregate valuation of the Shares that was attributable to the Corporation Common Stock in connection with the most recent third party valuation of the fair market value of the Shares performed before or in connection with the Secondary
Offering; 
 WHEREAS, ESH REIT will purchase shares of Class B Common Stock (its portion of the Repurchase Shares) and pay its portion
(the “ESH REIT Proportion”) of the Per Share Purchase Price, with such portion being determined by reference to the proportionate amount of the aggregate valuation of the Shares that
was attributable to the Class B Common Stock in connection with the most recent third party valuation of the fair market value of the Shares performed before or in connection with the Secondary Offering; 

WHEREAS, the Sellers propose to sell through an underwritten public offering (the “Secondary
Offering”) registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) certain other Shares owned by the Sellers (the “Secondary Shares”); 

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing, of the mutual promises herein set forth, and for other good and valuable consideration, the
receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, it is hereby agreed as follows:
