                                     PART I


ITEM 1. BUSINESS.

        (a)  The registrant, Uptowner Inns, Inc., was incorporated in the
State of West Virginia on July 1, 1961.  The registrant operates a 137 room,
full service hotel built in 1962 by the registrant and operated by the
registrant.  On January 17, 1997, the Holiday Inn franchise was terminated.
The franchise required standard fees for advertising, reservation system, etc.
In late August 1998, the registrant opened a 135-room Holiday Inn Hotel &
Suites facility adjacent to the Huntington Civic Arena.

     The clientele are predominately business travelers due to the downtown
location.  Main hotel occupancy for the year averaged 27% with an average of
$45. rate per room.  This yielded a revenue for available rooms of $4,450.
per year.  The new Holiday Inn Hotel & Suites occupancy for the year averaged
59% with an average of $81. rate per room.  This yielded a revenue for
available rooms of $17,500.

     A wholly owned subsidiary of the registrant, Motel and Restaurant
Supply, which was incorporated in the State of West Virginia on
July 16, 1966, has had no activity since 1981.

     Neither the registrant nor any of its subsidiaries has experienced
bankruptcy, receivership or similar proceedings; has been involved in
reclassification, merger or consolidation; has acquired or, except as
hereinafter set forth, disposed of any material amount of assets otherwise
than in the ordinary course of business; or has undertaken any material
change in the mode of conducting its business.

        (b)  The registrant is engaged in substantially two lines of
businesses, to wit, the operation of motor hotels with dining and
banquet facilities, and residential/commercial rentals.  The income
of the registrant from rentals exceeded ten percent of the consolidated
revenue of the registrant and its subsidiaries for the years prior to
1999.  For the year ended June 30, 1999, income from rentals did not
exceed ten percent.  Consolidated revenue did not exceed $50,000,000.
during any of the last three fiscal years.

     The hotel industry is highly competitive with the registrant competing
against numerous national hotel franchises in Huntington, West Virginia.
As the Companies' operations are generally one business segment, its
competition locally includes Radisson hotel, Ramada Inn, Best Western,
Comfort Inn, Red Roof Inn, and Hampton Inn.

     Seasonality directly affects this business as a result of people not
traveling or vacationing in large numbers in the late fall and winter
because of poor weather at these geographical locations.

     At June 30, 1999, the registrant and its subsidiaries employ
approximately 85 employees.


        (c)  The registrant has no foreign operation.

<PAGE>

        (i)  The registrant owns in fee a vacant lot on the west side
of Huntington approximately 3 miles from the main motor hotel and at
an exit for Interstate 64.  This purchase was finalized in October 1988
from an option entered into in 1983.  The property is currently used as a
parking lot until it is deemed beneficial to build and operate a
decent motel in that location.


        (j)  The registrant purchased a parcel of real estate with a
residential building in January 1990.  This property is across an
alley from the main motor hotel and was acquired for future
development and parking.


        (k)  The registrant purchased a parcel of real estate with a
building housing residential and commercial tenants in July 1991.
This property is across the street from its main motor hotel and
adjacent to other rental properties and parking facilities.  The
property has been renovated and is now fully utilized as rental
property.  The property is subject to a mortgage in favor of West
Virginia Housing Development Fund in the original amount of $500,000.,
5.5% rate of interest, maturing November 2018, the balance of which
is $439,086.


        (l)  The registrant owns in fee a Holiday Inn Hotel & Suites,
a 135 room motor hotel, located in downtown Huntington at 800 Third Avenue.
This purchase was finalized in December 17, 1996 from a contract entered
into on November 21, 1995.  The hotel officially opened for business
August 38, 1998.  The property is subject to a mortgage in favor of
Huntington Urban Renewal Authority in the amount of $540,000., 8.5% rate
of interest and maturing February 2004, the balance is $483,790. at
June 30, 1999 and is subject to a line of credit in the amount of
$4,392,891., with interest at prime plus 1%.

        The facility is being marketed for convention and business
travelers.  It is adjacent to the Huntington Civic Arena and is used
as a major part of marketing for conventions and meetings in the
Tri-State area.

        Annual reviews of insurance coverage are done and adequate insurance
is maintained on all properties.

ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS:

        A $10,000,000. suit in which the Uptowner Inns, Inc. is a defendant
has been filed by James R. Burton, an individual, who was severely
injured in an auto accident by a patron of the lounge in Cabell County
Court.  Legal counsel believes that good defenses exist in this action,
and that the case will ultimately be resolved in Uptowner Inns, Inc.'s favor.
The insurance company has denied liability in this case and legal counsel
believes the risk of loss will fall to Uptowner Inns, Inc.

</TABLE>

     The decline in 1996 resulted from fewer tours booking stays at the hotel
and the further decline in 1997 resulted from general business decline and
the loss of the Holiday Inn franchise in 1997.  The 1998 decline was due
to increased competition by operations close to the interstate and the
concern that the facility would be closed due to the opening of the new
Holiday Inn Hotel & Suites, which had been originally planned for
February 1998.  The increase in 1999 was entirely the result of the new
hotel, which operated for over ten months.

</TABLE>


      Motor inn revenue decreased in 1998 due to increased competition
from other facilities and the concern  that the older facility would
close in February 1998, when the Holiday Inn operating was originally
scheduled to open.  Food and Beverage revenues decreased due to fewer
guests and increased competition in the area due to more restaurants.
Rents increased due to slightly improved occupancy and some rate increases.

     The motor inn revenues increased in 1999 due to the opening of the new
facility in late August 1998.  The revenues have been consistently higher
than had been anticipated in room and beverage.  Revenues decreased in
the older facility in rooms and food operations, due to the lack of a
franchise and the continued uncertainty by the public as to the continuation
of that operation.  The acquisition of the Travelodge franchise for this
facility is expected to improve revenues.  Rents decreased due to the
sale of properties.

</TABLE>

          Cost of sales decreases were due to the decrease in the revenues
and better management of food and beverage costs.  Advertising decreased in
1996 due to the room revenue decrease that affected the change under the
Holiday Inn franchise for advertising and further decreased in 1997 due to
termination of the franchise in January.  Utilities decreased in 1997 due to
the decreased business and the milder weather in the last fiscal year.  The
registrant has accomplished only needed repairs and maintenance due to the
new facility being constructed and some uncertainty as to the use of the
current motel property in early 1998.  Interest decreased due to the
principal reductions and began to increase in 1998 due to increased
borrowing to construct the new facility.  Total costs and expenses have
consistently decreased due to the factors affecting the major items (noted
above). That is, declining business has been a major factor in the declining
costs and expenses through 1998.

     The increase in 1999 of all areas of expense can be attributed to the
opening of the new facility in late August 1998.  Expenses for the older
facility were not significantly different in 1999.

        The loss of the Holiday Inn franchise for the motor inn and
construction in progress of the Holiday Inn Hotel & Suites has had an
obvious impact on income resulting in a decrease in revenues of $231,072.
in 1997 and decreased costs and expenses of $211,494. resulting in a
decrease in Income of $15,201. in 1997.

        Continued revenue declines due to lack of a franchise and some
uncertainty as to the continuation of hotel operations resulted in a
decrease of revenues totaling $387,092. in 1998.  The decreased costs and
expenses of $187,192. and the revenue decrease resulted in a net decrease
in income of $199,900. from the prior year and, thus, the net loss for
1998 of $125,643.

        Management has obtained a Travelodge franchise for the older
facility and will seek new business that is not in competition with the
new hotel.  Continued monitoring of costs and expenses will be done to
improve the operating results for the Company.

        In 1999, revenues increased $1,981,649. and total costs and
expenses increased $1,632,977. resulting in an increase in net income over
1998 of $238,672.  Due to significant net operating losses extending to
2014, no income tax expense will be incurred.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES


                                         1999           1998

Resources available at
      June 30, 1999 and 1998

   Cash                            $   322,663.    $   90,015.


        The registrant anticipates liquidity will continue at a
below normal level for the next several years, but will show some
slight improvement due to the completion of the new facility.  Resources
available have increased $232,648. as a result of operating activities
providing substantially more than the net outflows for capital
expenditures paid for from Company funds.

       Liquidity has improved from .09 in 1998 to .24 in 1999 due to the
sale of properties and the improved operating activities from the new
hotel.  Although this is a positive improvement this year, it is not expected
to improve substantially in the next few years.

                       INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT



Board of Directors
Uptowner Inns, Inc. and Subsidiary
Huntington, West Virginia



We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of
Uptowner Inns, Inc. and Subsidiary as of June 30, 1999 and June 30, 1998,
and the related consolidated statements of income, stockholders' equity
and cash flows for the three years ended June 30, 1999.  These financial
statements are the responsibility of the Company's management.  Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements
based on our audit.

We conducted our audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards.  Those standards require that we plan and perform the
audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial
statements are free of material misstatement.  An audit includes
examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and
disclosures in the financial statements.  An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates
made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial
statement presentation.  We believe that our audit provides a
reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to
above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated
financial position of Uptowner Inns, Inc. and Subsidiary as of June
30, 1999 and June 30, 1998, and the consolidated results of its
operations and cash flows for the three years ended June 30, 1999
in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.



                                               (Signed)

                  NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1.  Summary of significant accounting policies:

    A.  Principles of consolidation:

             The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of
        UpTowner Inns, Inc. and its Subsidiary after elimination of all
        material intercompany balances and transactions.  The wholly owned
        subsidiary has had no activity since 1981.

    B.  Business activity:

             The Company operates two (2) motor inns in Huntington, West
        Virginia that consist of dining, banquet and lounge facilities.
        In addition, the Company operates apartment buildings and rental
        properties located in Huntington, West Virginia.

             The Corporation opened an additional facility in Huntington
        known as Holiday Inn Hotel & Suites on August 28, 1998.

    C.  Inventories:

             Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market on the
        first-in, first-out method.

    D.  Property, plant and equipment:

             Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost with
        depreciation being provided on the straight-line method over the
        estimated useful lives of the assets as follows:

        Buildings and improvements                         10 - 40 years
        Furniture and equipment                             3 - 10 years

             Repairs, maintenance and renewals are charged to operations
        as incurred, and expenditures for significant betterments and
        renewals are capitalized.

             The cost of fixed assets retired or sold, together with the
        related accumulated depreciation, are removed from the accounts
        and the resulting gain or loss is included in net earnings.

                       UPTOWNER INNS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY

                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


1.  Summary of significant accounting policies (Con'd):

    E.  Income taxes:

             The income taxes are provided for the tax effects of the
        transactions reported in the financial statements and consist
        of taxes currently due plus deferred taxes related primarily
        to different methods of depreciation for book and tax purposes and
        net operating loss carryovers.  The deferred tax assets and
        liabilities represent the future tax return consequences of those
        differences, which will either be taxable or deductible when the
        assets and liabilities are recovered or settled.

    F.  Per share computations:

              Income per share computations are based on weighted average
         number of common shares outstanding during the year.  The average
         number of shares outstanding was 1,583,563 for 1999, 1998, and 1997.

     G.  Cash and cash equivalents:

              For purposes of the statement of cash flows, cash equivalents
         include time deposits, certificates of deposit, and all highly
         liquid debt instruments with original maturities of three months
         or less, of which the Company had none.

     H.  Use of estimates:

              The preparation of financial statements in conformity with
         generally accepted accounting principles requires managment to
         make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts
         of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets
         and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the
         reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting
         period.  Actual results could differ from these estimates.

     I.  Capitalized interest:

              Interest costs are capitalized when incurred when proceeds
         were used to finance the construction of assets.  Capitalized
         interest for fiscal year ending June 30, 1999 and 1998 were
         $66,944. and $283,165., respectively.

                  NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


1.  Summary of significant accounting policies:

    A.  Principals of consolidation:

             The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of
        Uptowner Inns, Inc. and its Subsidiary after elimination of all
        material intercompany balances and transactions.  The wholly owned
        subsidiary has had not activity since 1981.

    B.  Business activity:

             The Company operates a motor inn in Huntington, West Virginia
        that consists of dining, banquet and lounge facilities.  In addition,
        the Company operates apartment buildings and rental properties
        located in Huntington, West Virginia.

    C.  Inventories:

             Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market on the
        first-in, first-out method.

    D.  Property, plant and equipment:

             Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost with
        depreciation being provided on the straight-line method over the
        estimated useful lives of the assets as follows:

        Buildings and improvements                   10 - 40 years
        Furniture and equipment                       2 - 10 years

             Repairs, maintenance and renewals are charged to operations
        as incurred, and expenditures for significant betterments and
        renewals are capitalized.

             The cost of fixed assets retired or sold, together with the
        related accumulated depreciation, are removed from the accounts with
        the resulting gain or loss is included in net earnings.

                    NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1.  Summary of significant accounting policies (Cont'd):

    E.  Income taxes:

             The income taxes are provided for the tax effects of the
        transactions reported in the financial statements and consist of
        taxes currently due plus deferred taxes related primarily to
        different methods of depreciation for book and tax purposes and
        net operating loss carryovers.  The deferred tax assets and
        liabilities represent the future tax return consequences of those
        differences, which will either be taxable or deductible when the
        assets and liabilities are recovered or settled.

    F.  Per share computations:

             Income per share computations are based on weighted average
        number of common shares outstanding during the year.  The average
        number of shares outstanding was 1,583,563 for 1998, 1997, and 1996.

    G.  Cash and cash equivalents:

             For purposes of the statement of cash flows, cash equivalents
        include time deposits, certificates of deposit, and all highly
        liquid debt instruments with original maturities of three months
        or less, of which the Company had none.

    H.  Use of estimates:

             The preparation of financial statements in conformity with
        generally accepted accounting principles requires management to
        make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts
        of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and
        liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported
        amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period.  Actual
        results could differ from these estimates.

    I.  Capitalized interest:

             Interest costs are capitalized when incurred when proceeds
        were used to finance the construction of assets.  Capitalized
        interest for fiscal year ending June 30, 1998 was $283,165.
        and $19,733., respectively.  There was no capitalized interest
        for the fiscal year ended June 30, 1996.
