NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1.       QUARTERLY INFORMATION:

         The unaudited consolidated financial statements included herein have
         been prepared by WestCoast Hospitality Corporation (the Company)
         pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange
         Commission (SEC). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally
         included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally
         accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted as
         permitted by such rules and regulations. The balance sheet as of
         December 31, 1999 has been compiled from the audited balance sheet as
         of such date. The Company believes that the disclosures included herein
         are adequate; however, these consolidated statements should be read in
         conjunction with the financial statements and the notes thereto for the
         year ended December 31, 1999 previously filed with the SEC on Form
         10-K.

         In the opinion of management, these unaudited consolidated financial
         statements contain all of the adjustments (normal and recurring in
         nature) necessary to present fairly the consolidated financial position
         of the Company at June 30, 2000 and the consolidated results of
         operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2000 and 1999
         and cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2000 and 1999. The
         results of operations for the periods presented may not be indicative
         of those which may be expected for a full year.


2.       ORGANIZATION:

         At June 30, 1999, the Company controlled and operated (through
         ownership or lease with purchase option agreements) 19 hotel
         properties. As of June 30, 2000, the Company had ownership interests
         and operated 24 hotel properties, managed an additional 9 properties
         and franchised an additional 13 properties, totaling 46 hotels in 9
         states, including Alaska, Arizona, California, Hawaii, Idaho, Montana,
         Oregon, Utah and Washington. Additionally, the Company provides
         computerized ticketing for entertainment events and arranges Broadway
         and other entertainment event productions. Also, during the second
         quarter of 1999, the Company launched TicketsWest.com, an Internet
         ticketing service offering consumers up-to-the-minute information

2.       ORGANIZATION, CONTINUED:

         on live entertainment and the ability to make real-time ticket
         purchases to events through the website. The Company owns and manages
         ticketing operations in Colorado, Idaho, Montana, Oregon and
         Washington. The Company also leases retail and office space in
         buildings owned by the Company and manages residential and commercial
         properties for others in Idaho, Montana and Washington. The Company's
         operations are segregated into four operating segments: (1) Hotels and
         Restaurants, (2) TicketsWest.com (e-commerce entertainment), (3) Real
         Estate Division and (4) Franchise, Central Services and Development.


3.       SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:

         In April 1998, Statement of Position (SOP) 98-5, "Reporting on the
         Costs of Start-up Activities" was issued. The SOP requires that all
         costs of start-up activities and organization costs be expensed as
         incurred. The Company adopted the provisions of SOP 98-5 on January 1,
         1999 and reported the change as a cumulative effect of an accounting
         change in the consolidated statement of operations. The adoption of SOP
         98-5 resulted in the cumulative effect of an accounting change of
         $133,000, which is net of $68,000 of income taxes, being recognized
         during the six months ended June 30, 1999.


4.       LONG-TERM DEBT AND LINE OF CREDIT:

         In May 1998, the Company obtained an $80 million revolving secured
         credit facility with a consortium of banks. In February 1999, the
         credit facility was increased to $100 million. In December 1999, in
         connection with the WestCoast Hotels Inc. acquisition, the credit
         facility was amended to increase the total amount available under the
         facility to $120 million. The credit facility is collateralized by
         certain property and requires that the Company maintain certain
         financial ratios, minimum levels of cash flows and restricts the
         payment of dividends. Any outstanding borrowings bear interest based on
         the prime rate or LIBOR, plus 180 to 325 basis points depending on the
         total funded debt levels. The credit facility matures in May

4.       LONG-TERM DEBT AND LINE OF CREDIT, CONTINUED:

         2003. At June 30, 2000, $113 million is outstanding under the credit
         facility. The Company was in compliance with all required covenants at
         June 30, 2000.

         During the quarter ended March 31, 1999, the Company paid off certain
         debt prior to its maturity date. Deferred loan fees associated with
         this debt of $15,000 has been written off and reported as an
         extraordinary item, net of a $5,000 income tax benefit.


5.       BUSINESS SEGMENTS:

         The Company has four operating segments: (1) Hotels and Restaurants;
         (2) TicketsWest.com (e-commerce entertainment); (3) Real Estate
         Division and (4) Franchise, Central Services and Development. The
         Franchise, Central Services and Development segment represents the
         franchise and marketing division of the Company, which was acquired
         with the WestCoast Hotels, Inc. purchase in December 1999. Therefore no
         amounts are reported for this segment for the six months ended June 30,
         1999. Corporate services and other consists primarily of miscellaneous
         revenues and expenses, cash and cash equivalents, certain receivables
         and certain property and equipment, which are not specifically
         associated with an operating segment.

         TicketsWest.com has significant inter-segment revenues, which are
         eliminated in the consolidated financial statements. Management reviews
         and evaluates the operations of TicketsWest.com including the
         inter-segment revenues. Therefore, the total revenues, including
         inter-segment revenues are included in the segment information below.
         Management reviews and evaluates the operating segments exclusive of
         interest expense. Therefore, interest expense is not allocated to the
         segments.

         Selected information with respect to the segments is as follows (in
         thousands):

WESTCOAST HOSPITALITY CORPORATION
ITEM II. QUARTERLY INFORMATION: MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
GENERAL
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

         The following discussion and analysis addresses the results of
operations for the Company for the three and six months ended June 30, 2000 and
1999. The following should be read in conjunction with the unaudited
Consolidated Financial Statements and the notes thereto. In addition to
historical information, the following Management's Discussion and Analysis of
Financial Condition and Results of Operations contains forward-looking
statements that involve risks and uncertainties. The Company's actual results
could differ significantly from those anticipated in these forward-looking
statements as a result of certain factors, including those discussed in "Risk
Factors" and elsewhere in the Form 10-K filed by the Company for the year ended
December 31, 1999, and in the Form S-3 filed by the Company on February 14,
2000.

         The Company's revenues are derived primarily from the Hotels and
reflect revenue from rooms, food and beverage, third party management contracts,
and other sources, including telephone, guest services, banquet room rentals,
gift shops and other amenities. Hotel revenues accounted for 86.7% of total
revenue in the three months ended June 30, 2000 and increased 15.1% from $24.9
million in 1999 to $28.6 million in 2000. This increase was primarily the result
of the addition of the acquisition of WestCoast Hotels Inc., which had an
effective date of December 31, 1999. The balance of the Company's revenues is
derived from its Franchise, Central Services and Development, TicketsWest.com,
Real Estate Division, and Corporate Services divisions. These revenues are
generated from franchise fees, ticket distribution handling fees, Internet
services, real estate management fees, sales commissions and rents. In 1999,
Franchise, Central Services and Development was not an operating segment of the
Company and was added as a business segment with the acquisition of WestCoast
Hotels Inc. Franchise, Central Services and Development accounted for 2.5% of
the Company's revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2000, TicketsWest.com
accounted for 3.2% and Real Estate Division accounted for 7.1% of total revenues
for the period.

          As is typical in the hospitality industry, REVPAR, ADR and occupancy
levels are important performance measures. The Company's operating strategy is
focused on enhancing revenue and operating margins by increasing REVPAR, ADR,
occupancy and operating efficiencies of the Hotels. These performance measures
are impacted by a variety of factors including national, regional and local
economic conditions, degree of competition with other hotels in

                                       14
<PAGE>

their respective market areas and, in the case of occupancy levels, changes in
travel patterns.

For the year ended December 31, 1999, the Company redefined its operating
segments as (1) Hotels and Restaurants; (2) TicketsWest.com (e-commerce and
entertainment); (3) Real Estate Division, and (4) Franchise, Central Services
and Development. The Franchise, Central Services and Development segment
represents the franchise and marketing division of the Company, which was
acquired with the WestCoast Hotels, Inc. purchase. Due to the timing of the
WestCoast Hotels, Inc. acquisition, this segment had identifiable assets and
capital expenditures at December 31, 1999, but no operations were reported until
2000. During 1999, the Company also identified most selling, general and
administrative costs, property operating costs and depreciation and amortization
expenses that were previously undistributed to the segments as costs of the
respective segments. Accordingly, the presentations of the consolidated
statements of operations for all periods presented have been reclassified to
reflect the 1999 classifications.

The following table sets forth-selected items from the consolidated statements
of operations as a percent of total revenues and certain other selected data:

(1) Hotel statistics for the three and six months ended June 30, 2000, are
presented for Combined Hotels. Combined Hotels means Hotels owned, managed, or
franchised by the Company in the current period. June 1999 data is stated on a
pro forma same store basis.
(2) REVPAR represents the total room revenues divided by total available rooms,
net of rooms out of service due to significant renovations.
(3) Rooms, which were under renovation, were excluded from REVPAR and average
occupancy percentage. Due to the short duration of renovation, in the opinion of
management, excluding these rooms did not have a material impact on REVPAR and
average occupancy percentage.
(4) ADR represents total room revenues divided by the total number of rooms
occupied by hotel guests on a paid basis.
(5) Average occupancy percentage represents total rooms occupied divided by
total available rooms. Total available rooms represents the number of rooms
available multiplied by the number of days in the reported period.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

COMPARISON OF THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2000 TO THE THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE
30, 1999

         Total revenues increased $5.0 million, or 18.1%, from $28.0 million in
1999 to $33.0 million in 2000. This increase is attributed primarily to revenue
generated from the acquisition of WestCoast Hotels Inc. on December 31, 1999,
and the acquisition of Oregon Ticket Company d.b.a. Fastixx, and Colorado
Neighborhood Box Office.

         Total hotel and restaurant revenues increased $3.7 million, or 15.1%,
from $24.9 million in 1999 to $28.6 million in 2000. Combined Hotel ADR
increased $2.32, or 2.7%, from $86.10 in 1999 to $88.42 in 2000. Combined Hotel
REVPAR increased $3.32, or 5.9%, from $56.18 in 1999 to $59.50 in 2000. The
Company completed the acquisition of WestCoast Hotels, Inc., effective December
31, 1999 which adds 258,055 room nights under ownership, and 1,511,830 room
nights which the Company has management or franchise contracts annually. Due to
the timing of the WestCoast Hotels, Inc. acquisition, it did not affect 1999
operating results.

         Franchise, Central Services and Development revenues were $0.8 million
for the quarter and was a new operating segment in 2000.

         TicketsWest.com revenues increased $0.6 million, or 121.1%, from $0.5
million in 1999 to $1.1 million in 2000. TicketsWest.com revenue increased
primarily from increased shows presented by the Company, increased attendance at
entertainment events and the addition of revenue from the expansion of the
Company through the acquisition of Fastixx, Colorado Neighborhood Box Office,
and the expansion of Internet services and fees.

         Real Estate Division revenue decreased $218 thousand, or 8.6%, from
$2.6 million in 1999 to $2.3 million in 2000 primarily from lease contracts
termination and renewal timing in the Company's office and retail buildings.

         Direct operating expenses increased $ 4.9 million, or 23.7 %, from
$20.8 million in 1999 to $25.7 million in 2000, primarily due to the increase in
the number of hotel guests served, the addition of WestCoast Hotels Inc.
operating expenses and assimilation costs. This represents an increase in direct
operating expenses as a percentage of total revenues from 74.3 % in 1999 to
77.8% in 2000

         Total undistributed corporate operating expenses increased $0.1
million, or 32.9%, from $0.4 million in 1999 to $0.6 million in 2000. Total
undistributed corporate operating expenses as a percentage of total revenues
increased 0.2 % from 1.6% in 1999 to 1.8 % in 2000.

         Operating income was $6.8 million in both periods. As a percentage of
total revenues, operating income decreased from 24.2 % in 1999 to 20.4 % in
2000. This decrease is primarily due to the increase in direct operating
expenses associated with the assimilation and acquisition of WestCoast Hotels
Inc..

         Interest expense increased $1.4 million, or 59.0%, from $2.3 million in
1999 to $3.7 million in 2000. This increase is primarily related to


                                       17
<PAGE>

borrowings associated with the acquisition of WestCoast Hotels Inc. and an
increase in the weighted average interest rate charged the Company for its
variable interest debt.

         Income tax provision declined 19.5 %, from $1.4 million in 1999 to $1.1
million in 2000, due to the decrease in income before taxes. The effective
income tax provision rate was 31.7 % and 36.7 % for 1999 and 2000,respectively.


         Net income decreased $1.1 million, or 35.7%, from $3.0 million in 1999
to $1.9 million in 2000. Earnings per share before extraordinary item and
cumulative effect of accounting change, decreased from $0.24 in 1999 to $0.15 in
2000.


COMPARISON OF SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2000 TO THE SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30,
1999

         Total revenues increased $10.1 million, or 20.2%, from $50.1 million in
1999 to $60.2 million in 2000. This increase is attributed primarily to revenue
generated from the acquisition of WestCoast Hotels Inc. on December 31, 1999,
the acquisition of Oregon Ticket Company d.b.a. Fastixx, and Colorado
Neighborhood Box Office.

         Total hotel and restaurant revenues increased $7.3 million, or 16.6%,
from $43.9 million in 1999 to $51.1 million in 2000. Combined Hotel ADR

nights which the Company has management or franchise contracts annually. Due to
the timing of the WestCoast Hotels, Inc. acquisition, it did not affect 1999
operating results.

         Franchise, Central Services and Development revenues were $1.7 million
for the six months and was a new operating segment in 2000.

         TicketsWest.com revenues increased $1.3 million, or 114.1%, from $1.2
million in 1999 to $2.5 million in 2000. TicketsWest.com revenue increased
primarily from increased shows presented by the Company, increased attendance at
entertainment events and the addition of revenue from the expansion of the
Company through the acquisition of Fastixx, Colorado Neighborhood Box Office,
and the expansion of Internet services and fees.

         Real Estate Division revenue decreased $268 thousand, or 5.4%, from
$4.9 million in 1999 to $4.6 million in 2000 primarily from lease contracts
termination and renewal timing in the Company's office and retail buildings.

         Direct operating expenses increased $ 9.6 million, or 24.3 %, from
$39.5 million in 1999 to $49.1 million in 2000, primarily due to the increase in
the number of hotel guests served, the addition of WestCoast Hotels Inc.
operating expenses and assimilation costs. This represents

                                       18
<PAGE>

an increase in direct operating expenses as a percentage of total revenues from
78.9 % in 1999 to 81.6% in 2000

         Total undistributed corporate operating expenses increased $0.3
million, or 31.7%, from $0.9 million in 1999 to $1.2 million in 2000. Total
undistributed corporate operating expenses as a percentage of total revenues
increased 0.2 % from 1.8% in 1999 to 2.0 % in 2000.

1999 to $9.9 million in 2000. As a percentage of total revenues, operating
income decreased from 19.3 % in 1999 to 16.5% in 2000. This decrease is
primarily due to the increase in direct operating expenses associated with the
assimilation and acquisition of WestCoast Hotels Inc..

         Interest expense increased $2.6 million, or 56.6%, from $4.6 million in
1999 to $7.2 million in 2000. This increase is primarily related to borrowings
associated with the acquisition of WestCoast Hotels Inc. and an increase in the
weighted average interest rate charged the Company for its variable interest
debt.

         Income tax provision declined 37.0%, from $1.7 million in 1999 to $1.0
million in 2000, due to the decrease in income before taxes. The effective
income tax provision rate was 32.0% and 36.7% for 1999 and 2000 respectively.

         Net income decreased $1.6 million, or 46.7%, from $3.4 million in 1999
to $1.8 million in 2000. Earnings per share before extraordinary item and
cumulative effect of accounting change, decreased from $0.28 in 1999 to $0.14 in
2000.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

         Historically, the Company's principal sources of liquidity have been
cash on hand, cash generated by operations and borrowings under an $100.0
million revolving credit facility. Cash generated by operations in excess of
operating expenses is used for capital expenditures and to reduce amounts
outstanding under the Revolving Credit Facility. The Company has increased the
Revolving Credit Facility to $120 million effective January 3, 2000. Hotel
acquisitions, development and expansion have been and will be financed through a
combination of internally generated cash, borrowing under credit facilities, and
the issuance of Common Stock or OP Units.

         The Company's short-term capital needs include food and beverage
inventory, payroll and the repayment of interest expense on outstanding mortgage
indebtedness. Historically, the Company has met these needs through internally
generated cash. The Company's long-term capital needs include funds for property
acquisitions, scheduled debt maturities and renovations and other non-recurring
capital improvements. The Company anticipates meeting its future long-term
capital needs through the additional debt financing secured by the Hotels, by
unsecured private or public debt offerings or by additional equity offerings or
the issuances of OP Units, along with cash generated from internal operations.

         At June 30, 2000, the Company had $2.4 million in cash and cash
equivalents. The Company has made extensive capital expenditures over the last
three years, $6.2 million, $123.6 million, $63.3 million and $4.3 million in
owned and joint venture properties in 1997, 1998, 1999, and the

                                       19
<PAGE>

six months ended June 30, 2000 respectively. These expenditures included guest
room, lounge and restaurant renovations, public area refurbishment, telephone
and computer system upgrades, tenant improvements, property acquisitions,
construction, and corporate expenditures and were funded from the initial public
offering, issuance of operating partnership units, operating cash flow and debt.
The Company establishes reserves for capital replacement in the amount of 4.0%
of the prior year's actual gross hotel income to maintain the Hotels at
acceptable levels. Acquired hotel properties have a separate capital budget for
purchase, construction, renovation, and branding costs. Capital expenditures
planned for Hotels in 2000 are expected to be approximately $8.4 million.
Management believes the consistent renovation and upgrading of the Hotels and
other properties is imperative to its long-term reputation and customer
satisfaction.

         To fund its acquisition program and meet its working capital needs, the
Company has a Revolving Credit Facility. The Revolving Credit Facility has a
term ending May 2003 and an annualized fee for the unutilized portion of the
facility. The Company selects from four different interest rates when it draws
funds: the lender's prime rate or one, three, or six month LIBOR plus the
applicable margin of 180 to 325 basis points, depending on the Company's ratio
of EBITDA-to-total funded debt. The Revolving Credit Facility allows for the
Company to draw funds based on the trailing 12 months performance on a pro forma
basis for both acquired and owned properties. Funds from the Revolving Credit
Facility may be used for acquisitions, renovations, construction and general
corporate purposes. The Company believes the funds available under the Revolving
Credit Facility and additional debt instruments will be sufficient to meet the
Company's near term growth plans. The Operating Partnership is the borrower
under the Revolving Credit Facility. The obligations of the Operating
Partnership under the Revolving Credit Facility are fully guaranteed by the
Company. Under the Revolving Credit Facility, the Company is permitted to grant
new deeds of trust on any future acquired properties. Mandatory prepayments are
required to be made in various circumstances including the disposition of any
property, or future acquired property, by the Operating Partnership.

         The Revolving Credit Facility contains various representations,
warranties, covenants and events of default deemed appropriate for a Credit
Facility of similar size and nature. Covenants and provisions in the definitive
credit agreement governing the Revolving Credit Facility include, among other
things, limitations on: (i) substantive changes in the Company's and Operating
Partnership's current business activities, (ii) liquidation, dissolution,
mergers, consolidations, dispositions of material property or assets involving
the Company and its affiliates or their assets, as the case may be, and
acquisitions of property or assets of others, (iii) the creation or existence of
deeds of trust or other liens on property or assets, (iv) the addition or
existence of indebtedness, including guarantees and other contingent
obligations, (v) loans and advances to others and investments in others, (vi)
redemption of subordinated debt, (vii) amendment or modification of certain
material documents or of the Articles in a manner adverse to the interests of
the lenders under the Revolving Credit Facility, (viii) payment of dividends or
distributions on the Company's capital stock, and (ix) maintenance of certain
financial ratios. Each of the covenants described above provides for certain
ordinary course of business and other exceptions. If the Company breaches any of
these covenants and does not obtain a waiver of that breach, the breach will
constitute an event of default under the

                                       20
<PAGE>

Revolving Credit Facility. At June 30, 2000, the Company had $113.0 million
outstanding under the Revolving Credit Facility and was in compliance with all
required covenants. The Revolving Credit Facility restricted the Company from
paying any dividends as of June 30, 2000.

         In addition to the Revolving Credit Facility, as of June 30, 2000, the
Company had debt and capital leases outstanding of approximately $57.9 million
consisting of primarily variable and fixed rate debt secured by individual
properties.

         The Company believes that cash generated by operations will be
sufficient to fund the Company's operating strategy for the foreseeable future,
and that any remaining cash generated by operations, together with capital
available under the Revolving Credit Facility (subject to the terms and
covenants to be included therein) and additional debt financing, will be
adequate to fund the Company's growth strategy in the near term. Thereafter, the
Company expects that future capital needs, including those for property
acquisitions, will be met through a combination of net cash provided by
operations, borrowings and additional issuances of Common Stock or OP Units.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SEASONALITY
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

         The lodging industry is seasonal in nature, with the months from May
through October generally accounting for a greater portion of annual revenues
than the months from November through April. For example, for the year ended
December 31, 1999, our revenues in the first through fourth quarters were 20.1%,
25.4%, 30.7% and 23.8%, respectively, of our total revenue for such year and our
net income for the first through fourth quarters was 4.4%, 37.5%, 48.9% and
9.2%, respectively, of our total net income for that year. Quarterly earnings
also may be adversely affected by events beyond our control, such as extreme
weather conditions, economic factors and other considerations affecting travel.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
INFLATION
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

         The effect of inflation, as measured by fluctuations in the Consumer
Price Index, has not had a material impact on the Company's revenues or net
income during the periods under review.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
YEAR 2000 ASSESSMENT
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

         The "Year 2000 problem" arose because many existing computer programs
use only the last two digits to refer to a year. Therefore, these computer
programs do not properly recognize a year that begins with "20" instead of the
familiar "19". If not corrected, many computer applications could fail or create
erroneous results.

         The Company completed its assessment, modification or replacement of
systems, which it determined would not be compliant prior to December 31, 1999.
We have not experienced any significant system failures from the Year 2000
problem and do not anticipate any significant problems will arise in the future.
The costs to complete the evaluation, modifications, and replacement of systems
not compliant with the Year 2000 were not significant. The main system that was
replaced was the Company's payroll system, which had been scheduled to be
replaced for reasons other than the Year 2000 problem.

         Due to the complexity of the various computer systems, problems may

still arise related to the Year 2000 problem that have not been exposed or
anticipated. The risks associated with these potential system failures are
difficult to measure. The Company cannot guarantee that its efforts will prevent
all consequences and also relies on third party vendors to correct any problems
in their systems, which could affect the Company.

NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

        In April 1998, Statement of Position (SOP) 98-5, "Reporting on the Costs
of Start-up Activities" was issued. The SOP requires that all costs of start-up
activities and organization costs be expensed as incurred. The Company adopted
the provisions of SOP 98-5 on January 1, 1999 and reported the change as a
cumulative effect of an accounting change in the consolidated statement of
operations. The adoption of SOP 98-5 resulted in a charge to operations of
$133,000, which is net of $68,000 of income taxes.
