Xenia Hotels & Resorts, Inc. is filing this Amendment No. 1 to its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended
December 31, 2015, as an exhibit-only filing solely to re-file Exhibits 31.1 and 31.2 to include a portion of the text required in paragraph 4 of the Section 302 certifications (specifically, subparagraph 4(b) and a portion of the
introductory language of paragraph 4), which were inadvertently omitted from the Section 302 certifications included with the original Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 10, 2016. This Amendment No. 1 to
Form 10-K does not reflect events occurring after the filing of the original Form 10-K and, other than the re-filing of the referenced certifications, does not modify or update the disclosures in the original Form 10-K in any way. Accordingly, this
Amendment should be read in conjunction with the Annual Report as originally filed.
