         in the United States, operating 118 primarily full-service hotels (as
         of March 31, 1999) in the upscale and midscale segments of the hotel
         industry containing approximately 31,600 rooms, of which 102 hotels are
         operated under the long-term leases with FelCor. The Company operates
         hotels in 27 states, Canada and the District of Columbia, with 30

         hotels under other hotel brands, including Sheraton Four Points,
         Hampton Inn, Homewood Suites, Courtyard by Marriott and Fairfield Inn.

2.       BASIS OF PRESENTATION

         The consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 1998, has been derived
         from the audited balance sheet at that date. The consolidated balance
         sheet at March 31, 1999, and the consolidated statements of income and
         cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 1999, have been
         prepared by the Company and are unaudited. In the opinion of
         management, all adjustments (which include only normal recurring
         adjustments) necessary to present fairly, in all material respects, the
         financial position of the Company as of March 31, 1999, and the results
         of operations and cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 1999,
         have been made. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of
         fiscal year performance because of seasonal and short-term variations.

         The Company had no operations from March 20, 1998, through May 19,
         1998. Operations began on May 20, 1998, with the lease of the Hampton
         Inn - Las Vegas. From May 20, 1998, to July 28, 1998, the Company's
         sole asset was the leasehold interest in the Hampton Inn - Las Vegas;
         therefore, no statements of operations or cash flows for the three
         months ended March 31, 1998, are presented for the Company.

         Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in
         financial statements presented in accordance with generally accepted
         accounting principles have been condensed or omitted. The Company
         believes the disclosures made are adequate to make the information
         presented not misleading. However, the consolidated financial
         statements contained in this report should be read in conjunction with
         the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the
         Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31,
         1998.

3.       ACQUISITION OF JOINT VENTURE INTEREST

         On January 5, 1999, the Company acquired a 15% interest in the Bristol
         Hudson J.V., which owns the Cambridge Inn in Cambridge, Massachusetts.
         The Company's initial investment in the joint venture was approximately
         $645,000. A subsidiary of the Company will manage the property for the
         joint venture. The property was rebranded to a Holiday Inn Express on
         April 1, 1999.

4.       FELCOR NOTES

         As a result of the Spin-off and related settlements with FelCor, the
         Company has a note receivable from FelCor. The note bears interest at a
         monthly LIBOR rate plus 150 basis points (6.47% as of March 31, 1999),
         and is due upon five days' notice from the Company. On February 1,
         1999, the Company requested and received $5.0 million of this note
         amount.

         At the end of the first quarter of 1999, FelCor executed an additional
         note for amounts due to a Canadian subsidiary of the Company of
         approximately $1.3 million. This note bears interest at a monthly LIBOR
         rate plus 130 basis points (6.27% as of March 31, 1999), and is due
         upon five days' notice from the Company. As a result of these
         transactions, the balance of notes receivable from FelCor
         (collectively, the "FelCor Notes") was $5.4 million as of March 31,
         1999.

1.       BASIS OF PRESENTATION

         Bristol Hotel Company (the "Predecessor" or "BHC") was a Delaware
         corporation which was incorporated in November 1994 and began
         operations after the acquisitions of Harvey Hotel Company, Ltd. and its
         subsidiaries and United Inns, Inc. At March 31, 1998, the Predecessor
         owned 86 hotels and managed 15 additional hotels, two of which were
         owned by joint ventures in which the Predecessor owned a 50% interest.
         The properties, which contain approximately 28,800 rooms, are located
         in 22 states, the District of Columbia and Canada.

         The consolidated statements of income and cash flows for the three
         months ended March 31, 1998, have been prepared by the Predecessor and
         are unaudited. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (which
         include only normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly,
         in all material respects, the results of operations and cash flows for
         the three months ended March 31, 1998, have been made. Interim results
         are not necessarily indicative of fiscal year performance because of
         seasonal and short-term variations.

         Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in
         financial statements presented in accordance with generally accepted
         accounting principles have been condensed or omitted. The Predecessor
         believes the disclosures made are adequate to make the information
         presented not misleading. However, the consolidated financial
         statements contained in this report should be read in conjunction with
         the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in
         Bristol Hotels & Resorts' Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended
         December 31, 1998.

2.       EARNINGS PER SHARE

         The following table reconciles the computation of basic earnings per

                     MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
                  RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION


FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

Certain matters discussed in this Form 10-Q are forward-looking statements and
information that are based on the Company's current views and assumptions
concerning future events. Forward-looking statements are typically identified by
the words "believe," "expect," "anticipate," "intend," "estimate," "project" and
similar expressions. These statements are subject to risks and uncertainties
that could cause the Company's actual operations and results of operations to
differ materially from those reflected in such forward-looking statements.

Forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and are
subject to the Company achieving its business strategy and the costs and
expected benefits of that strategy and having sufficient cash flow and other
sources of cash to fund its lease payments, debt service requirements, working
capital needs and other significant expenditures. Forward-looking statements are
also based on what the Company anticipates future trends in the lodging industry
will be and how those will be affected by industry capacity, the seasonal nature
of the lodging industry, product demand and pricing and the other matters
referred to from time to time in the Company's filings with the Securities and
Exchange Commission. The Company undertakes no obligation to publicly release
the results of any revisions to these forward looking statements that may be
made to reflect any future events or circumstances.

OVERVIEW

BRISTOL HOTELS & RESORTS

Results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 1999, reflect the
operations of the Company's leased hotels (103 hotels as of March 31, 1999) and
those hotels operated under management contracts, of which there were 15 as of
the end of the period.

BRISTOL HOTEL COMPANY (PREDECESSOR)

Historical results for the three months ended March 31, 1998, reflect the
operations of the 86 hotels owned by the Predecessor as of March 31, 1998, and
the joint venture ownership and/or management of 15 additional hotels.

REDEVELOPMENT AND REBRANDING PROGRAM

The Redevelopment and Rebranding Program started by BHC in November 1997 and
continued by the Company impacted both the Company's and the Predecessor's
operating results. The Redevelopment and Rebranding Program entails exterior and
interior reconstruction of and renovations to a substantial number of hotels as
well as the rebranding of certain hotels operated under the Company's own brand
names. In addition to the renovations, the Company expects to rebrand 19 hotels
to the Crowne Plaza or Crowne Plaza Suites brand by the end of 2000. During the
first quarter of 1998, the rebranding of one property to a Crowne Plaza was
completed. In total, 15 hotels containing 5,127 rooms were under redevelopment
in the first quarter of 1998. By the first quarter of 1999, the Company had
completed the conversion of 15 hotels to the Crowne Plaza brand. There were 19
hotels containing 6,026 rooms under redevelopment in the first quarter of 1999,
four of which will be rebranded to the Crowne Plaza brand. The Redevelopment and
Rebranding Program is expected to be substantially complete by the end of 2000.

NOTES

(1)      Same Store Hotels excludes hotels undergoing renovation during the
         first quarter 1998 or 1999.

(2)      Canadian assets have been adjusted to remove the effect of
         period-to-period exchange rate fluctuations.

(3)      Excludes recently terminated contracts and those that are being
         marketed for sale by the owner (seven assets in total).

The hotels which were under redevelopment in the first quarter of 1998 have
shown significant improvements for the first quarter of 1999 compared to the
same period in 1998 as detailed above. The improvement in the hotels redeveloped
in 1998 is offset by the disruptions caused by the Redevelopment and Rebranding
Program to the 19 properties undergoing redevelopment during the first quarter
of 1999. In the first quarter of 1999, 5.3% of total available rooms, totaling
approximately 149,400 rooms nights, were out of service as a result of the
Redevelopment and Rebranding Program. Several of these hotels are located in
major markets such as Chicago, Illinois; Orlando, Tampa and Cocoa Beach,
Florida; Pittsburgh and Philadelphia, Pennsylvania; and San Francisco,
California.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The Company's principal sources of liquidity are cash on hand, cash flow from
operations and borrowings under the $40 million revolving credit facility led by
Bankers Trust Company (the "Credit Facility"). The Company had approximately
$30.2 million of cash on hand at March 31, 1999. The Company believes that it
currently requires approximately $10 million to $15 million of cash to fund its
day-to-day working capital needs.

The Company's operations generated approximately $3.6 million of cash flow for
the three months ended March 31, 1999. The Company's cash flows are sensitive to
the performance of the leased and managed properties. For managed properties,
the Company's cash flows are principally tied to changes in the gross revenues
of the properties. For leased properties, the Company is impacted both by
changes in gross revenues as well as changes in operating expenses and rent
expense. Rent expense is paid principally as a percentage of gross revenues and
is largely tied to room revenue volume. Room revenue increases or decreases
caused by changes in room rates have only a minor impact on operating expenses,
as compared to revenue increases or decreases generated by changes in occupancy,
which also can produce significant changes in operating costs. As a result, the
Company's cash flows are more directly impacted by revenue increases or
decreases caused by changes in average room rates. Increased revenues caused by
increases in occupancy levels could have little impact on the Company's cash
flows or could actually reduce cash flow if the incremental business is not sold
at sufficiently high average room rates.

During the quarter ended March 31, 1999, the Company received payment of $5
million on a note due from FelCor. FelCor executed an additional note to the
Company of $1.3 million during the period. The $5.4 million balance of the
FelCor Notes are due upon 5 days' demand and can be used by the Company for
working capital or other purposes.

The $40 million of commitments under the Credit Facility may be used for working
capital and other general corporate purposes. Additionally, a sub-limit of up to
$20 million of such commitments is available to issue letters of credit to
secure the Company's obligations under the leases with FelCor and other owners,
subject to the reduction of such sub-limit to reflect the Company's achievement
of liquid net worth requirements related to such leases. Concurrently with the
Spin-off, a letter of credit for $20 million was issued to FelCor to secure the
Company's obligations under the leases. This amount may be adjusted from time to
time pursuant to the liquid net worth requirements described above. By March 31,
1999, the letter of credit amount required under the leases had been reduced to
$10.3 million.

The Company is actively pursuing opportunities for growth and anticipates adding
to its leasehold and management portfolio, both through its relationship with
FelCor, as well as working with other property owners who could benefit from the
Company's services. The Company began management of the Hampton Inn in Sault St.
Marie, Michigan in March 1999. The Company has previously announced agreements
to manage three Hilton Garden Inns and a 265-room upscale Hilton Hotel, all of
which are under development. The first of these properties, a Hilton Garden Inn
in Round Rock (Austin), Texas, is scheduled to open in October 1999. The
remaining three properties are scheduled to open in 2000.

It is possible that some new management contracts or leases could require a
small capital investment on the part of the Company. The Company may also
purchase hotel leases or management contracts from third parties. If such an
investment is necessary, the Company believes it has adequate capital resources
including cash on hand, availability under the Credit Facility and the FelCor
Notes to fund these opportunities for the immediate future. The Company acquired
a 15% joint venture interest and the management of the Cambridge Inn in
Cambridge, Massachusetts in January 1999. The Company's initial investment in
the joint venture was approximately $645,000.

The Company is continuously exploring opportunities for increasing efficiency at
the hotels and the corporate office. Some of these opportunities could require
small capital investments by the Company to achieve the targeted savings, such
as the installation of energy-saving devices throughout the leased




                                       14

hotels during 1999 and the development and installation of the Company's wide
area network which will improve productivity and ease communication between the
corporate office and the hotels. The Company believes that it has adequate
capital resources to fund its growth opportunities for the immediate future.

YEAR 2000 READINESS

Since the Company last reported on the status of its Year 2000 Readiness
Program, it has completed several pilot site implementations, during which it
did not encounter any significant problems. It has also completed the testing
phase. Full implementation of the remedy process is underway and the Company
anticipates completion in November 1999.

The Company has also completed its evaluation of the non-information technology
systems, which use embedded chip technology. No material embedded system issues
were identified for any of the critical systems at the hotels. Further, the
Company has conducted an analysis of potential problems which could arise from
inputting the September 9, 1999 date, and has not discovered any significant
risks associated with this date.

Costs 

The Company has prepared and presented budgets for the remediation of
non-compliant systems to its property owners, and each has been approved. Since
the last report, there has been no material change in the cost to the Company.

Risks 

No new risks have been identified by the Company.
